The purpose of the symposium was to capture some of the current excitement and recent progress in scientific understanding of ecosystems, from the microbial to the global level, while also highlighting how improved understanding can be applied to important policy issues that have broad biodiversity and ecosystem effects. The aim was to help inform new policy approaches that could satisfy human needs while also maintaining the integrity of the goods and services provided by biodiversity and ecosystems over both the short and the long terms. This report summarizes the views expressed by symposium participants; however, it does not provide a session-by-session summary of the presentations at the symposium. Instead, the symposium steering committee identified eight key themes that emerged from the lectures, which were addressed in different contexts by different speakers. The focus here is on general principles rather than specifics. These eight themes provide a sharp focus on a few concepts that enable scientists, environmental NGOs, and policy makers to engage more effectively around issues of central importance for biodiversity and ecosystem management"--Publisher description. 000442995 650_0 $$aEcosystem management$$vCongresses. 000442995 650_0 $$aEcosystem management$$xInternational cooperation$$vCongresses. 000442995 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$vCongresses. 000442995 650_0 $$aBiodiversity conservation$$xInternational cooperation$$vCongresses. 000442995 650_0 $$aInternational cooperation$$vCongresses. 000442995 650_0 $$aElectronic books. 000442995 7102_ $$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$$bCommittee for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services: A Symposium. 000442995 7102_ $$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$$bU.S. National Committee for DIVERSITAS. 000442995 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central Academic Complete 000442995 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10531106$$zOnline Access 000442995 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:442995$$pGLOBAL_SET 000442995 980__ $$aEBOOK 000442995 980__ $$aBIB 000442995 982__ $$aEbook 000442995 983__ $$aOnline
