Understanding nature’s processes is a prerequisite for the healthy and sustainable functioning of a habitable Earth. As such, the book provides a guide for readers seeking to understand and build sustainable, urban socio-ecological systems using restoration technologies based on wisdom. Motivated by recent rapid advances in restoration engineering, such as the role of green building materials in urban infrastructures, and developing sustainable landscapes to benefit the environment, economy and communities, it is an essential reference on the most promising innovative technologies. It discusses engineering methods and practices in the restoration of soil, water, heritage sites, and other ecosystems, as well as the development and applications of green building materials. It presents a holistic and systematic approach that utilizes natural resources and the concept of ecological wisdom to reap sustainable environmental, economic and social benefits to fulfill the concept of living in harmony with nature. This book is a valuable resource for civil- and environmental engineering researchers as well as organizations engaged in eco-restoration practices.EcoWISE, Innovative Approaches to Socio-Ecological Sustainability,2367-0029Building constructionBiotechnologyMicrobiologyEnvironmental Science and Engineeringhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/G37000Building Materialshttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/T23047Environmental Engineering/Biotechnologyhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/U33000Applied Microbiologyhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/C12010Energy Efficiencyhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/118000Building construction.Biotechnology.Microbiology.Environmental Science and Engineering.Building Materials.Environmental Engineering/Biotechnology.Applied Microbiology.Energy Efficiency.628Achal Varenyamedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMukherjee Abhijitedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910350347103321Ecological Wisdom Inspired Restoration Engineering1951202UNINA
