Work cat.: Integrated assessment of ecosystem health, c2000:
pref. ("The concept of 'ecosytem health' was developed to reflect the importance of considering an ecosystem truly as a system, rather than as an assemblage of individual species. The well-being of an ecosystem depends on the functioning of its parts, but additionally on higher-order phenomena such as population dynamics, community structure, and landscape processes.")
