It is aimed at conservation and environmental practitioners, who will find tips for choosing methods and approaches when there are conflicts between the natural components and human activity. It is also addressed to students of applied ecology, ecosystem management, land-use planning and environmental impact assessment. It discusses a number of topics covered in the programs of many university courses related to basic ecology and ecology of disturbance, the latter constituting a field of great interest because of its implications and repercussions in applied territorial science. The book is divided into two parts: the first focuses on the theoretical and disciplinary framework of the ecology of disturbance, while the second is devoted to the analysis of anthropogenic threats. This, in particular, discusses the most recent approach, which uses a conventional nomenclature to allow a coarse-grained quantification and objective assessment of threat impact on different environmental components. Such an approach facilitates the comparison of hierarchically different events and, therefore, helps define the priorities for management and conservation strategies. 410 0$aEnvironmental Science,$x1431-6250 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology  606 $aGeobiology 606 $aEnvironmental geography 606 $aWildlife 606 $aFish 606 $aNature conservation 606 $aConservation Biology/Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150 606 $aBiogeosciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35010 606 $aEnvironmental Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J19010 606 $aFish & Wildlife Biology & Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25080 606 $aNature Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U26008 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology . 615 0$aGeobiology. 615 0$aEnvironmental geography. 615 0$aWildlife. 615 0$aFish. 615 0$aNature conservation. 615 14$aConservation Biology/Ecology. 615 24$aBiogeosciences. 615 24$aEnvironmental Geography. 615 24$aFish & Wildlife Biology & Management. 615 24$aNature Conservation. 676 $a508 700 $aBattisti$b Corrado$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0308579 702 $aPoeta$b Gianluca$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aFanelli$b Giuliano$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254128103321 996 $aAn Introduction to Disturbance Ecology$92512295 997 $aUNINA
