It is aimed at conservation and environmental practitioners, who will find tips for choosing methods and approaches when there are conflicts between the natural components and human activity. It is also addressed to students of applied ecology, ecosystem management, land-use planning and environmental impact assessment. It discusses a number of topics covered in the programs of many university courses related to basic ecology and ecology of disturbance, the latter constituting a field of great interest because of its implications and repercussions in applied territorial science. The book is divided into two parts: the first focuses on the theoretical and disciplinary framework of the ecology of disturbance, while the second is devoted to the analysis of anthropogenic threats. This, in particular, discusses the most recent approach, which uses a conventional nomenclature to allow a coarse-grained quantification and objective assessment of threat impact on different environmental components. Such an approach facilitates the comparison of hierarchically different events and, therefore, helps define the priorities for management and conservation strategies. 000756539 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed July 29, 2016). 000756539 650_0 $$aEcological disturbances. 000756539 7001_ $$aPoeta, Gianluca,$$eauthor. 000756539 7001_ $$aFanelli, Giuliano,$$eauthor. 000756539 830_0 $$aEnvironmental science and engineering (Springer (Firm)).$$pEnvironmental science. 000756539 852__ $$bebk 000756539 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-32476-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000756539 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:756539$$pGLOBAL_SET 000756539 980__ $$aEBOOK 000756539 980__ $$aBIB 000756539 982__ $$aEbook 000756539 983__ $$aOnline 000756539 994__ $$a92$$bISE
