The rapidly increasing global population has dramatically increased the demands for natural resources and has caused significant changes in quantity and quality of natural resources.To achieve sustainable resource management, it is essential to obtain insight- ful guidance from emerging disciplines such as landscape ecology.This text addresses the links between landscape ecology and natural resource management.These links are discussed in the context of various landscape types,a diverse set of resources,and a wide range ofmanagement issues.Alarge number of landscape ecology concepts,principles, and methods are introduced.Critical reviews of past management practices and a large number of case studies are presented.This text provides many guidelines for managing natural resources from a landscape perspective. | Cambridge studies in landscape Ecology Edlted by Jianguo Liu William w.

Critical reviews of past management practices and a large number of case studies are presented. This text provides many guidelines for managing natural resources from a landscape perspective and offers useful suggestions for landscape ecologists to carry out research relevant to natural resource management. In addition it will be an ideal supplementary text for graduate and undergraduate ecology courses. JIANGUO LIU is an Associate Professor at Michigan State University where he teaches and researches in the areas of landscape ecology and biodiversity conservation. He has published extensively in scientific journals such as Science and has edited two other ecology books. In recognition of his contributions to research outreach and teaching he has been given a number of awards including a CAREER award from the National Science Foundation a Lilly Teaching Fellowship and an Aldo Leopold Leadership Fellowship from the Ecological Society of America.
