Abstract

The Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration process assesses natural resource injury due to oil or chemical spills and calculates the damages to compensate the public for those injuries. Ecological restoration provides a means for recovering resources injured or lost due to contamination from oil or chemical spills by restoring the injured site after remediation, or acquiring or reconstructing equivalent resources off site to replace those lost due to the spill. In the case of restored forests, once restoration is implemented, monitoring of forest ecology helps keep recovery on track, with the maturation of forest vegetation, recovered soil conditions, and development of microbial, fungal, and faunal communities, necessary for ecologically functioning forests. This series of papers focuses on applying methods for monitoring restoration progress in forest vegetation and soils, and amphibian, avian, and mammalian communities, assessing strengths and weaknesses of different methods, and evaluating levels of effort needed to obtain accurate indications of forest ecological condition.

开展研究，以评估自然资源的恢复情况，并对恢复后的底层硬木森林的监测方法进行评估。

自然资源损害评估和恢复流程评估因油类或化学品泄漏造成的自然资源损害，并计算损害赔偿以补偿公众的损失。生态恢复是恢复因油类或化学品泄漏污染而受损或损失的资源的一种方法，方法是在补救后恢复受损现场，或在现场外获取或重建同等资源，以替代因泄漏而损失的资源。在恢复森林的情况下，一旦实施恢复，对森林生态的监控有助于保持恢复的正常进行，森林植被的成熟、土壤条件的恢复以及微生物、真菌和动物群落的发展都是森林生态功能所必需的。本系列论文重点关注应用各种方法监测森林植被和土壤以及两栖动物、鸟类和哺乳动物群落的恢复进展，评估不同方法的优缺点，并评价为获得准确的森林生态状况指标所需的努力程度。Integr Environ Assess Manag 2024;00:1-5.© 2024 作者。综合环境评估与管理》由 Wiley Periodicals LLC 代表环境毒理学与化学学会 (SETAC) 出版。

期刊介绍： Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management (IEAM) publishes the science underpinning environmental decision making and problem solving. Papers submitted to IEAM must link science and technical innovations to vexing regional or global environmental issues in one or more of the following core areas: Science-informed regulation, policy, and decision making Health and ecological risk and impact assessment Restoration and management of damaged ecosystems Sustaining ecosystems Managing large-scale environmental change Papers published in these broad fields of study are connected by an array of interdisciplinary engineering, management, and scientific themes, which collectively reflect the interconnectedness of the scientific, social, and environmental challenges facing our modern global society: Methods for environmental quality assessment; forecasting across a number of ecosystem uses and challenges (systems-based, cost-benefit, ecosystem services, etc.); measuring or predicting ecosystem change and adaptation Approaches that connect policy and management tools; harmonize national and international environmental regulation; merge human well-being with ecological management; develop and sustain the function of ecosystems; conceptualize, model and apply concepts of spatial and regional sustainability Assessment and management frameworks that incorporate conservation, life cycle, restoration, and sustainability; considerations for climate-induced adaptation, change and consequences, and vulnerability Environmental management applications using risk-based approaches; considerations for protecting and fostering biodiversity, as well as enhancement or protection of ecosystem services and resiliency.
