Urban ecology / Kevin J. Gaston (2010)  

Public ISBD Titre : Urban ecology Type de document : livre Auteurs : Kevin J. Gaston, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed., 3rd print. Editeur : Cambridge, UK : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2010 Collection : Ecological reviews Importance : 318 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-76097-3 Prix : 42.99 GBP Note générale : First ed. 2010, 3rd printing 2013; DOI : 10.1017/CBO9780511778483 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Urban ecology (Sociology)  Urban areas  Biodiversity  Sustainable development  Ecosystem services  Human ecology Résumé : This is the urban century in which, for the first time, the majority of people live in towns and cities. Understanding how people influence, and are influenced by, the 'green' component of these environments is therefore of enormous significance. Providing an overview of the essentials of urban ecology, the book begins by covering the vital background concepts of the urbanisation process and the effect that it can have on ecosystem functions and services. Later sections are devoted to examining how species respond to urbanisation, the many facets of human-ecology interactions, and the issues surrounding urban planning and the provision of urban green spaces. Drawing on examples from urban settlements around the world, it highlights the progress to date in this burgeoning field, as well as the challenges that lie ahead En ligne : https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511778483 Urban ecology [livre] / Kevin J.

Panarchy: understanding transformations in human and natural systems / Lance H. Gunderson (2002)  

Public ISBD Titre : Panarchy: understanding transformations in human and natural systems Type de document : livre Auteurs : Lance H. Gunderson, Éditeur scientifique ; C. S. Holling, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Washington, D.C. : Island Press Année de publication : 2002 Importance : 507 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-55963-857-5 Prix : 50.00 USD Note générale : ISBN-10 : 1-55963-857-5 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ecosystems  Human ecology Résumé : Creating institutions to meet the challenge of sustainability is arguably the most important task confronting society; it is also dauntingly complex. Ecological, economic, and social elements all play a role, but despite ongoing efforts, researchers have yet to succeed in integrating the various disciplines in a way that gives adequate representation to the insights of each. Panarchy, a term devised to describe evolving hierarchical systems with multiple interrelated elements, offers an important new framework for understanding and resolving this dilemma. Panarchy is the structure in which systems, including those of nature (e.g., forests) and of humans (e.g., capitalism), as well as combined human-natural systems (e.g., institutions that govern natural resource use such as the Forest Service), are interlinked in continual adaptive cycles of growth, accumulation, restructuring, and renewal. These transformational cycles take place at scales ranging from a drop of water to the biosphere, over periods from days to geologic epochs. By understanding these cycles and their scales, researchers can identify the points at which a system is capable of accepting positive change, and can use those leverage points to foster resilience and sustainability within the system. This volume brings together leading thinkers on the subject -- including Fikret Berkes, Buz Brock, Steve Carpenter, Carl Folke, Lance Gunderson, C.S. Holling, Don Ludwig, Karl-Goran Maler, Charles Perrings, Marten Scheffer, Brian Walker, and Frances Westley -- to develop and examine the concept of panarchy and to consider how it can be applied to human, natural, and human-natural systems. Throughout, contributors seek to identify adaptive approaches to management that recognize uncertainty and encourage innovation while fostering resilience. The book is a fundamental new development in a widely acclaimed line of inquiry. It represents the first step in integrating disciplinary knowledge for the adaptive management of human-natural systems across widely divergent scales, and offers an important base of knowledge from which institutions for adaptive management can be developed. It will be an invaluable source of ideas and understanding for students, researchers, and professionals involved with ecology, conservation biology, ecological economics, environmental policy, or related fields.
