"Ecological restoration is a rapidly evolving discipline that is engaged with developing both methodologies and strategies for repairing damaged and polluted ecosystems and environments. During the last decade the rapid pace of climate change coupled with continuing habitat destruction and the spread of non-native species to new habitats has forced restoration ecologists to re-evaluate their goals and the methods they use. This comprehensive handbook brings together an internationally respected group of established and rising experts in the field. The book begins with a description of current practices and the state of knowledge in particular areas of restoration, and then identifies new directions that will help the field achieve increasing levels of future success. Part I provides basic background about ecological and environmental restoration. Part II systematically reviews restoration in key ecosystem types located throughout the world. In Part III, management and policy issues are examined in detail, offering the first comprehensive treatment of policy relevance in the field, while Part IV looks to the future. Ultimately, good ecological restoration depends upon a combination of good science, policy, planning and outreach - all issues that are addressed in this unrivalled volume."--Provided by publisher.

Advances in close-range and remote sensing technologies are driving innovations in forest resource assessments and monitoring on varying scales. Data acquired with airborne and spaceborne platforms provide high(er) spatial resolution, more frequent coverage, and more spectral information. Recent developments in ground-based sensors have advanced 3D measurements, low-cost permanent systems, and community-based monitoring of forests. The UNFCCC REDD+ mechanism has advanced the remote sensing community and the development of forest geospatial products that can be used by countries for the international reporting and national forest monitoring. However, an urgent need remains to better understand the options and limitations of remote and close-range sensing techniques in the field of forest degradation and forest change. Therefore, we invite scientists working on remote sensing technologies, close-range sensing, and field data to contribute to this Special Issue. Topics of interest include: (1) novel remote sensing applications that can meet the needs of forest resource information and REDD+ MRV, (2) case studies of applying remote sensing data for REDD+ MRV, (3) timeseries algorithms and methodologies for forest resource assessment on different spatial scales varying from the tree to the national level, and (4) novel close-range sensing applications that can support sustainable forestry and REDD+ MRV. We particularly welcome submissions on data fusion.

fter the Covid-19 pandemic, environmental rebalancing became the vital limit for humans in the third millennium. The inevitable global scenario, where perhaps accidents have crossed, can be looked at from another horizon, as a mosaic of local operations on the environment. The design research by the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Cagliari, in concert with the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, and funded by the Autonomous Region of Sardinia, configures, with inland areas at its core, a fundamental perspective of the Regional Policies for a carbon-neutral Sardinia in the next 30 years. Dopo la pandemia da Covid-19 il riequilibrio ambientale costituisce il limite vitale per gli uomini del terzo millennio. L'inevitabile scenario globale, dove forse gli incidenti si sono incrociati, può essere guardato da un altro orizzonte, come un mosaico di operazioni locali sull'ambiente. La ricerca progettuale della Facoltà di Ingegneria e Architettura dell'Università degli Studi di Cagliari, di concerto con l'Università delle Arti Applicate di Vienna, e finanziata dalla Regione Autonoma della Sardegna, configura, con fulcro le aree interne, una prospettiva fondamentale delle Politiche Regionali per una Sardegna a CO2 zero nei prossimi trent'anni.
