ECOLOGICAL INDICATORS

The ultimate aim of Ecological Indicators is to integrate the monitoring and assessment of ecological and environmental indicators with management practices. The journal provides a forum for the discussion of the applied scientific development and review of traditional indicator approaches as well as for theoretical| modelling and quantitative applications such as index development. Research into the following areas will be published. • All aspects of ecological and environmental indicators and indices. • New indicators| and new approaches and methods for indicator development| testing and use. • Development and modelling of indices| e.g. application of indicator suites across multiple scales and resources. • Analysis and research of resource| system- and scale-specific indicators. • Methods for integration of social and other valuation metrics for the production of scientifically rigorous and politically-relevant assessments using indicator-based monitoring and assessment programs. • How research indicators can be transformed into direct application for management purposes. • Broader assessment objectives and methods| e.g. biodiversity| biological integrity| and sustainability| through the use of indicators. • Resource-specific indicators such as landscape| agroecosystems| forests| wetlands| etc.
