The studies presented here describe not only how species and populations in these ecosystems were disturbed by the earthquake and tsunamis, but also how the communities have responded to the event and what types of anthropogenic activities will hamper their recovery processes. In the ecological sciences, it is often argued that large disturbances are critical to shaping community structures and biodiversity in local and regional habitats. However, our understanding of these roles remains limited, simply because there have been few opportunities to examine and address the ecological impacts of large disturbance events. The scale of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake makes it one of the largest hazards in the past 1000 years. Thus, this book provides a unique opportunity to advance our understanding of the ecological impacts of large and rare disturbances and the implications of these events in the conservation and management of coastal ecosystems. Following an outline of the Great East Japan Earthquake, the book's content is divided into two major parts. Part I reports on studies examining the ecological impacts of the tsunamis on sub-tidal and tidal animal communities, while Part II focuses on terrestrial plant communities in Japan's coastal Tohoku area. This book will benefit all scientists interested in the ecological impacts of large disturbances on aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in general, and especially those who are interested in the ecological management of coastal ecosystems and Ecosystem based Disaster Risk Reduction (EcoDRR). . 000763676 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 3, 2016). 000763676 650_0 $$aCoastal ecology$$zJapan. 000763676 650_0 $$aTsunami damage. 000763676 650_0 $$aTohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, Japan, 2011. 000763676 7001_ $$aUrabe, Jōtarō,$$d1959-$$eeditor. 000763676 7001_ $$aNakashizuka, T.$$q(Tohru),$$d1956-$$eeditor. 000763676 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9784431564461$$z4431564462$$w(OCoLC)953709313 000763676 830_0 $$aEcological research monographs. 000763676 852__ $$bebk 000763676 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-4-431-56448-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000763676 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:763676$$pGLOBAL_SET 000763676 980__ $$aEBOOK 000763676 980__ $$aBIB 000763676 982__ $$aEbook 000763676 983__ $$aOnline 000763676 994__ $$a92$$bISE
