Linking Restoration and Ecological Succession

by Lawrence R Walker, Joe Walker, and R. J. Hobbs

Published 1 January 2007

This innovative book integrates practical information from restoration projects around the world with the latest developments in successional theory. It recognizes the critical roles of disturbance ecology, landscape ecology, ecological assembly, invasion biology, ecosystem health, and historical ecology in habitat restoration. It argues that restoration within a successional context will best utilize the lessons from each of these disciplines.
