Document Summary
2- ecosystem technology: design of sustainable natural and artificial ecosystems that integrate human society with its natural environment for the benefit of both. 4- ecological engineering monitoring and indirect strategies environmental engineering actually going out there and changing shit. 7- phytoremediation: use plants to remove toxic substances from water and soil. 8- ecohydrology: combo ecology and hydrological principles used to achieve sound environmental management. Ecosystems used to reduce or solve a pollution problem that otherwise would be harmful to other ecosystems. Ecosystems are imitated or copied to reduce or solve a problem ( Ecosystem used for site recovery after major disturbances ( Existing ecosystems are modified in an ecological sound way to solve a problem ( Wetlands for diffuse pollution (open water for wetland) Surface mine restoration, mine tailings; mine tailings; gravel pits and quarries recovery of hazardous waste site.
