Environmental Restoration and Design for Recreation and Ecotourism

Addressing the concept of environmental restoration, this book explains new approaches and how to balance the reclamation, regeneration, and rehabilitation of previously abused and presently neglected landscapes for use by people. It introduces new restoration approaches of particular interest to professionals, academics, and researchers, and discusses options and limitations in the repair of wetlands and buried streams. The author includes case studies from the US and the UK to illustrate the interdependence between innovative site technologies and novel planning and design strategies and processes.
