Agroforestry systems can help improve environmental quality by increasing carbon sequestration, enhancing biodiversity, and improving water quality. Studies have found that agroforestry systems store more carbon in both aboveground vegetation and belowground soils than non-agroforestry systems. The deeper and more extensive tree roots in agroforestry systems take up more nutrients, reducing levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment runoff into waterways. As a result, agroforestry improves water quality. Agroforestry systems also support higher levels of biodiversity by providing habitat for plants and animals and creating wildlife corridors.

Ecosystem Restoration restore ecosystem
Ecosystem restoration aims to reverse damage done to ecosystems through processes like climate change, invasive species, and degradation. It helps recover biodiversity and improve human welfare. Restoration seeks to reestablish the essential properties, functions, and structures of damaged ecosystems. There are various forms of environmental degradation that restoration addresses, including global warming, energy consumption, disturbance, and succession. Successful restoration requires carefully planning and implementing goals like species reintroduction to fully restore the original ecosystem.
Application of ecological principles in restoration of degraded habitats
1. The document discusses key ecological concepts that can be applied to habitat restoration, including levels of biological organization, native species, keystone species, population viability, disturbances, ecological resilience, and connectivity.
2. It also discusses ecosystem management concepts that provide a framework for biodiversity conservation, such as island biogeography theory, niche theory, population theory, community ecology, food web theory, modeling and simulations, and paleoecology.
3. These concepts can be used to guide restoration activities like reintroducing native species, establishing minimum viable populations, reducing fragmentation, and restoring ecosystem functions.
Forest ecology mendel university
This document provides information about a textbook on forest ecology published by Mendel University in Brno, Czech Republic in 2014. It was created by three authors - Jiří Kulhavý, Josef Suchomel, and Ladislav Menšík. The textbook has eight chapters that cover topics in forest ecology including forest structure and function, primary production, water and nutrient cycles, biotic interactions, and the role of forests in global ecology. It was created as part of an EU-funded project to innovate biological and forestry disciplines.
Power point ecology activity, biology corner
This document provides an overview of key concepts in ecology, including levels of ecological organization (species, population, community, ecosystem, biome), ecological methods, energy flow through ecosystems, and nutrient cycles. It defines important terms like producers, consumers, trophic levels, and decomposers. Food chains and webs are described along with ecological pyramids showing the transfer of numbers and biomass up the trophic levels. The water, carbon, and nitrogen cycles are also summarized in the document.
Ecosystem restoration
Rising human populations are largely responsible for the environmental degradation that ecological restoration seeks to repair.
the discipline of ecological restoration is likely to face its greatest challenges at a time when human capital and economic resources will be inadequate for the scale of the problem.
Restoration of damaged ecosystems is receiving increasing attention worldwide as awareness increases that humanity must sustain ecosystem structure, functioning, and diversity for its own wellbeing.
Restoration rebuilds an ecosystem little different than the pristine ecosystem that was degraded. It is done to the physical environment and to plants in restoration.
Definition of ecosystem restoration: ‘the process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem that has been degraded, damaged, or destroyed’.
, there are many approaches to restoration, and the choice of approach should arguably be based on –
1. which is most appropriate given the objectives.
2. which provides the greatest likelihood of success.
These efforts may be conducted on either a small-scale (e.g., tree planting) or
May involve major human and technical efforts (e.g., re-creation of wetlands, acid lake neutralization).
Principles For Restoration
KEY ACTIVITIES FOR ECOSYTEM RESTORSTION
Making Forest and Landscape Restoration a Force for Change
Restoring functionality and productive capacity to forests and landscapes in order to provide food, fuel, and fiber, improve livelihoods, store carbon, improve adaptive capacity, conserve biodiversity, prevent erosion and improve water supply.
Rangeland Management in Africa Research and case studies
Rangelands are more than just grass but rather complex and biodiverse ecosystems. Covering nearly half the world’s land area, they are in need of restoration and sustainable management.
Global ecology
The document discusses various climate groups and biomes. It begins by defining climate and weather, noting that climate refers to long-term atmospheric conditions and patterns that determine the types of ecosystems in a region. It then describes three major climate groups (low, mid, and high latitudes), providing details on representative climates and biomes within each group, such as tropical rainforests, grasslands, and tundra. Climate is the dominant factor controlling global patterns of biomes.

Reforestation in the Cerro Candelaria Reserve
This document summarizes a study measuring the success of reforestation efforts in abandoned pastures in the Cerro Candelaria Reserve in Ecuador. The study collected data on tree diameter, height, location and species from 16 reforestation plots established between 2008-2010. Diversity indices were calculated to analyze the data and assess the progress of the reforestation project over time. The results showed general progress in reforesting the abandoned pastures and increasing tree diversity compared to when the project first began.
Niche concept
Dr. Manju Bhaskar discusses the ecological niche concept. An ecological niche describes a species' functional role and position based on factors like resources, predators, habitat characteristics. G. Evelyn Hutchinson described the fundamental niche, being all conditions a species can survive in alone, and the realized niche, being conditions after interactions with other species. Niches allow populations to persist by reducing competition and filling different roles in food webs and ecosystems. Understanding niches provides insights into community composition and species responses to one another.
Restoration Ecology in Environmental Science
This document provides an overview of restoration ecology and ecological restoration. It discusses key concepts like ecosystem structure and function, disturbance and succession, resistance and resilience, fragmentation and reference ecosystems. It also describes the need for restoration ecology due to increasing threatened species. As a case study, it outlines mangrove restoration efforts in Andhra Pradesh, India from 1997-2004 that were aimed at regenerating degraded mangrove forests through activities like digging canals to reduce salinity and planting mangrove saplings. Measurement of the project's success included regrowth of indigenous species and self-sustainability of the restored ecosystems.
Ch. 4 Ecosystems and Communities
This document discusses factors that shape ecosystems and communities. It explains that climate is determined by factors like greenhouse gases, latitude, and ocean currents. Ecosystems are shaped by biotic interactions between organisms as well as abiotic factors like temperature and soil. Communities change over time through ecological succession as environments change and new species move in. The document outlines 10 major terrestrial biomes and describes 3 main types of aquatic ecosystems - freshwater, estuaries, and marine - which are classified based on factors like depth, flow, and salinity.
Ch 13 ed
The document discusses various topics related to ecological restoration including:
1) Ecological restoration aims to reverse degradation and reestablish ecosystems, though returning to the original condition is rarely possible. Common restoration methods include reintroduction of species, remediation of pollution, and reclamation of degraded sites.
2) Examples of restoration projects include restoring forests in Vermont, prairies in Wisconsin and Oklahoma, and wetlands in Colorado and the Everglades. The Bermuda cahow bird was reestablished through protection programs.
3) Factors like fire and grazing by animals like bison are important for maintaining certain ecosystems like oak savannas and prairies but require restoration efforts to reestablish.

State and transition models (STMs) are tools that integrate ecosystem dynamics into management by defining alternative ecosystem states and the transitions between them. Climate relates to STMs by influencing ecological sites and the potential vegetation communities. As climate changes, STMs may need to consider shifting reference states and allow for novel communities. Applying STMs across mixed land uses adds complexity but can help assess conservation value under different land use states.

1. The document discusses a project in Ethiopia that examined the role of trees in addressing food security challenges through agroforestry practices. It presents findings on how trees can improve crop productivity, food consumption, and diversity of farm produce.
2. Preliminary observations found that certain tree species like Faidherbia albida can help keep crops like wheat cool and increase yields. Studies also showed these trees may increase water available to crops through hydraulic redistribution.
3. For results to be scaled up, the document emphasizes the need for context-specific, interdisciplinary and participatory approaches that consider socioeconomic factors, management practices, and longer-term funding. Partnerships and learning across spatial and temporal scales areWater (from an Analog Forestry perspective)
In Sri Lanka, mountain forests generate water and cycle atmospheric water globally through photosynthesis, contributing cloud condensation nuclei that can diminish the warming effect of CO2. However, modern land use changes and addition of agrotoxins and industrial toxins to montane regions have degraded water quality, eroding the nation's water quality and eventually degrading ocean ecosystems, making Sri Lanka the worst polluter of the Indian Ocean by 2010 due to inaction.

Traditional knowledge in climate smart agriculture
Traditional knowledge is unique to a given culture or society which established over time. It is techniques or practices which is well knitted with customs, traditions and beliefs in rural life. Mainly rural people or tribal are main custodian of this traditional knowledge. The traditional knowledge or practices are found to be socially desirable, economically affordable, sustainable, and involve minimum risk to rural farmers and producers. This knowledge is evolved over time periods so it offers a climate resiliency. The knowledge is also based on their belief and customs, so it is location specific and acceptable. As modern science or approaches are not well suited to many rural or remote locations, there integration between these two knowledge may provide better understanding and result. Modern approaches are resource exploitable however it is widely believed that traditional practices try to conserve resources. It provides basis for problem solving strategies for local communities. CSA identifies agricultural strategies suitable to local conditions for sustainable food production under climate change scenario.

Ecoagriculture
This document discusses eco-agriculture, which aims to balance agricultural production, biodiversity conservation, and rural livelihoods. It notes that eco-agriculture applies an integrated ecosystem approach and was coined in 1970. Key aspects of eco-agriculture include conserving biodiversity, enhancing production, and improving livelihoods at the landscape scale through practices like maintaining natural habitats and vegetation buffers around water. Challenges include institutional barriers and the need to bridge conservation and agriculture. Principles to overcome challenges include maintaining habitats and connectivity while intensifying production without oversimplifying landscapes.

The document describes using systematic field surveys across diverse landscapes to assess the effects of land use on soil health. Specifically, it discusses using a standardized Land Degradation Surveillance Framework (LDSF) to collect plot and subplot data on vegetation, erosion, soil properties, and land use history from over 320 sites. This data can then be analyzed using multi-level modeling to understand relationships between inherent soil properties, land cover types, and indicators of soil health across sites. The goal is to explore these linkages and assess how land use influences soil health while accounting for inherent soil constraints.permaculture farming -Komal organic ppt
This document discusses permaculture farming. It describes how permaculture was developed in 1978 by Bill Mollison and David Holmgren based on Masanobu Fukuoka's natural farming philosophy. Permaculture is a system that designs agricultural and social systems modeled after natural ecosystems to be sustainable. It uses practices like agroforestry, forest gardening, hügelkultur, and rainwater harvesting. The goal is to create diverse, efficient systems that utilize biological resources and accelerate plant succession through ecological design principles.
Policies and governance for biomass and land use
This document summarizes key points about policies and governance for biomass and land use in relation to climate change from the IPCC's Special Report on Climate Change and Land. It notes that changes in land-based processes due to climate change can result in compound risks to food systems, livelihoods, and ecosystem health. These risks vary by region but increase with temperature. Both responses and policies related to land use must address poverty, degradation, and emissions to achieve climate-resilient sustainable development. Strong, adaptive, multilevel governance is critical to managing risks and achieving best practices across sectors as land and climate interactions are complex.

1) The document discusses the concept of a "green economy" which aims to improve human well-being and social equity while reducing environmental risks. It recognizes the interdependence of environmental protection and economic growth.
2) Forests play a vital role in a green economy by providing essential products, services, and ecosystem functions. Sustainable forest management can provide significant economic and environmental benefits compared to business-as-usual practices.
3) Investing in areas like sustainable agriculture, improved forest management, and payments for ecosystem services can help transition economies to be more green. Community forestry also contributes importantly to social equity and poverty reduction as part of a green economy.

lLandfill are the major disposal route for municipal solid waste. Wastes in landfill experience physical and biological changes resulting in solubilization or suspension of high concentrations of organic matter in the landfill‘s leachate.
Source reduction and waste minimization, resource recovery and recycling, waste processing and treatment,combustion and land filling have all significantly affected the sufficiency of waste management systems.
Of all available management options for solid waste management, landfill disposal is the most commonly employed waste management worldwide.

Natural resources continue to play an important role in livelihood and wellbeing of millions. Over exploitation and degradation of natural resource base have led to declining factor productivity in rural areas and dwindling farm profits coupled with debilitating impact on human health. This necessitates promoting technologies that can help producing food keeping pace with the growing population while conserving natural resource base and be profitable. Achieving this conflicting target though appears to be challenging but is possible with the currently available technologies. This lecture will provide insights into a gamut of resource conserving technologies, the role of communities in promoting them and tools that can help in identifying suitable technologies for adoption. The lecture will heavily borrow sustainable agriculture cases from the Asia Pacific region.
Outline
• Natural resource dependency and rural development
o Trends in resource depletion and impact on food production
o Farm profitability trends and input use
o Trends in factor productivity
• Resource conserving technologies and climate smart agriculture
o What are they?
o Similarities and differences
o Costs and benefits of pursuing them
• Tools for identifying resource conserving and climate smart agriculture technologies
o Factor productivity
o Benefit cost ratios
o Marginal abatement costs
• Role of communities
o Communities as entry point
o Benefits of community participation
• Concluding thoughts
o How to scale up resource conservation?
Environmental zoning
The document discusses environmental zoning for biodiversity conservation in Lawaan, Eastern Samar, Philippines. It analyzed the area's biodiversity using ecological and social criteria through surveys and GIS mapping. Three zones were identified - very critical, critical, and less critical - based on biodiversity index values across elevation gradients. The study found that concentric zoning could lead to lower elevation extinction, and proposed environmental zoning as a new biodiversity conservation paradigm for the area.

Be Guided by the Landscape (Analog Forestry Principle #7)
- 1. Total Ecosystem Management Understanding Landscape AF Principle 7
- 2. On technological ‘development • Clearly, there is something about technology that does not like that which is not itself • Yet it is not a necessary condition, this unfriendliness to the land The Lagoon Cycle 1985.
- 3. Landscape • " a heterogeneous land area composed of a cluster of interacting ecosystems that is repeated in similar form throughout. Landscapes vary in size down to a few kilometers in diameter. The process of landscape development or formation results from three mechanisms operating within a landscape's boundary: specific geomorphological processes taking place over a long time, colonization patterns of organisms, and local disturbances over a shorter time". (Foreman and Godron ,1986). • To this, the addition of the biodiversity component provides greater utility in management decisions. Thus the identity of all components, in terms of Anthropogenic and or Natural is also important
- 5. Abiotic elements natural and anthropogenic
- 6. Open land, natural and anthropogenic
- 7. Forest, natural and anthropogenic
- 8. Principle 6 Reduce ratio of external energy in production Tea, as a production system, industrial and analog
- 10. Analog design on the left (90% exotic species) mimics the natural forest on the right( 100% native species) with added aesthetic considerations
- 12. AF Principle 7 Be guided by landscape needs • All farming land will be a part of a natural landscape. The boundaries of which are often set by definition. A common criterion to delineate a landscape is on a watershed basis. Once identified, each landscape can be divided into various replicating systems, such as open fields, tree covered, homesteads, roads, streams etc. A landscape will often have many vegetation components ranging from tree crops to open land. The patches of remnant vegetation often being the only habitat left for native biodiversity. • In design, a recognition of the value of hierarchical structuring using abiotic, biotic, native and cultural subsystems provides a framework for landscape planners and developers. • Placement of species in recharge and discharge areas.
