4 general definition or ecological restoration sensu lato: ecological restoration is the process of intentionally assisting the recovery of degraded or destroyed ecosystems (SER 2004)
5 general definition or ecological restoration sensu lato: ecological restoration is the process of intentionally assisting the recovery of degraded or destroyed ecosystems (SER 2004) ecological restoration sensu stricto aims at re-establishing the biotic integrity in terms of species composition, community structure and functioning i.e. ecosystem processes, productivity and services (SER 2004)
