Description

Product Description The establishment of ecological networks in Europe and greenways in America has required some of the most advanced applications of the principles of landscape ecology to land use planning. This book provides a thorough overview of recent developments in this emerging field, combining theoretical concepts of landscape ecology with the actual practice of landscape planning and management. In addition to biological and physical considerations important to biodiversity protection and restoration, equal weight is given to cultural and aesthetic issues to illustrate how sympathetic, sustainable land use policies can be implemented. Examples are given for large scale areas (Estonia and Florida) as well as regional areas such as Milano, Chicago and the Argentinian Yungas. This invaluable book will provide a wealth of information for all those concerned with biodiversity conservation through networks and greenways and their relevance to the planning process, whether researcher, land manager or policy maker. Review '… excellent and timely … an important book that deserves to be read by all of us involved in modern conservation practice.' Biologist Book Description Combines theoretical concepts of landscape ecology with the practice of landscape planning. About the Author Rob Jongman is a Senior Researcher at Alterra Green World Research in Wageningen, The Netherlands.Gloria Pungetti is a Senior Research Fellow at the Department of Horticulture and Landscape at the University of Reading.
