Defining Ecological Restoration<br />

“Ecological restoration is the process of<br />

assisting the recovery of an ecosystem that<br />

has been degraded, damaged, or<br />

destroyed.”<br />

SER International Primer<br />

…what is meant by “recovery” in ecological restoration<br />

“An ecosystem has recovered – <strong>and</strong> is restored- when it<br />

contains sufficient biotic <strong>and</strong> abiotic resources to<br />

continue its development without further assistance or<br />

subsidy.”
