Abstract :
Restoration ecology is a new field of research
that combines ecological theory with concerns about
human impacts on nature. Environmental harm caused by
human activities may be repaired using a restoration
ecology approach. When it comes to academics, restoration
ecology is a relatively young field, but one with a long and
rich history to compare it. Ecological restoration has been
long seen as a suitable testing ground for ecological theory;
restoration was envisioned as the ultimate litmus test for
our ecological understanding. Ten years ago, restorative
science had a firm academic basis, addressing issues faced
by restoration practitioners, bringing fresh attention to
existing ecological theory, and establishing a few new
ecological ideas. Plant community ecology has significantly
impacted ecological restoration in recent years. In both
community ecology and ecological restoration, models of
succession, assembly, and state transition are always
developing and adapting. It is possible to verify ecological
hypotheses in restoration ecology, even though it is a
subfield of ecology research. Economic, social, and
political aspects of the restoration ecological process must
also be considered. This review provides a conceptual map
of the field's history and present practices and possible
future directions of restoration ecology.
Keywords :
active, ecological restoration, historical continuity, passive, restoration strategies.
