His research, often conducted with his older brother, Eugene, an ecologist at the University of Georgia, who died on Aug. 10 at 88, led to the formation of many fields of science, including systems ecology, ecological economics and ecological engineering.
These introductions were completely ad hoc; there wasn't ecological engineering – stuff happened.
It will be no bad thing to learn how to do such ecological engineering now.
During the 1990s, along with colleagues in Denmark, the Netherlands and the US, he pioneered the field of ecological engineering termed "biomanipulation", whereby fish stocks were adjusted to ensure that plant communities were restored and dense algal blooms prevented.
It was conducted by the International Ecological Engineering Society in Paris at the conference "Ecological Engineering: from Concepts to Application" organized by the Ecological Engineering Applications Group GAIE.
The development of ecological engineering was given strong impetus in the last decade with a textbook, the journal Ecological Engineering and two professional ecological engineering societies.
There is no cookbook available for ecological engineering design.
Appropriate plant communities for this ecological engineering can be selected.
P. australis has been a most preferred unique plant system, especially in ecological engineering for improving the quality of wastewater.
Using these results, we elucidate the value of ecological engineering and offer guidance for assessments of ecological engineering projects using social-ecological modeling.
Four papers address the validity and efficiency of water quality improvement of this ecological engineering and one paper presents a similar but small-size ecological engineering.
