Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Restoration Ecology

Rafael L. G. Raimundo

Restoration ecology is the scientific study supporting the practice of ecological restoration, which is the practice of renewing and restoring degraded, damaged, or destroyed ecosystems and habitats in the environment by active human intervention and action. Effective restoration requires an explicit goal or policy, preferably an unambiguous one that is articulated, accepted, and codified. Restoration goals reflect societal choices from among competing policy priorities, but extracting such goals is typically contentious and politically challenging. Characteristic environments give biological system administrations as assets like food, fuel, and lumber; the purging of air and water; the detoxification and deterioration of squanders; the guideline of environment; the recovery of soil richness; and the fertilization of harvests.
