Expanding Horizons of Forest Ecosystem Management: Proceedings of the HabitatFutures Workshop (3rd). Held in Vernon, British Columbia in October 1992

摘要

New approaches and technologies to evaluate wildlife-habitat relations, implementintegrated forest management, and improve public participation in the process are needed to implement ecosystem management. Presented here are five papers that examine ecosystem management concepts at international, national, regional, and local scales. Two general management problems were addressed: how to incorporate different components of ecosystem management into specific forestry and wildlife management practices, and how to resolve conflicts and involve citizens more effectively in the management process. These papers are examples of new concepts and procedures being tested for use in managing resources by using an integrated ecosystem basis.
