Ecosystem management requires a planning and decision-making process that places land
use in its appropriate ecological context. Because ecological assessments must be conducted
at various spatial scales and across jurisdictional boundaries, approaches to assessment must
be compatible and consistent with each other. A Guidebook for Integrated Ecological
Assessments analyzes methods and provides standards and protocols for assessment and the
integration of data.
Contents: I. Guidebook Overview; II. Principles of Ecological Assessments;
III. Information Management and Characterization Tools; IV. Ecosystem Characterization;
V. Ecosystem Analysis and Interpretation; VI. Case Studies; VII. Development and
Implementation Strategies; VIII. Conclusions and Recommendations
