2. Ecological engineering : an introduction to ecotechnology

   New York : Wiley, c1989.

   Ecotechnology is the application of ecological engineering principles and methods. This book details a new approach to dealing with humans' impact on nature, stressing the need for a symbiotic relationship between humans and their natural environment. It covers ecological modeling, as well as economic, ecological and educational aspects of ecological engineering. Case studies are included illustrating applications in aquatic ecosystems, hydrological modification, pollution control, wetland management, and lake, reservoir, and stream restoration. The volume will be of benefit to ecologists, environmental scientists, environmental engineers and biologists.

3. Ecological engineering design [electronic resource] : restoring and conserving ecosystem services

   Matlock, Marty D.

   Hoboken, NJ : Wiley, c2010.

   "Ecologically-sensitive building and landscape design is a broad, intrinsically interdisciplinary field. Existing books independently cover narrow aspects of ecological design in depth (hydrology, ecosystems, soils, flora and fauna, etc.), but none of these books can boast of the integrated approach taken by this one. Drawing on the experience of the authors, this book begins to define explicit design methods for integrating consideration of ecosystem processes and services into every facet of land use design, management, and policy. The approach is to provide a prescriptive approach to ecosystem design based upon ecological engineering principles and practices. This book will include a novel collection of design methods for the non-built and built environments, linking landscape design explicitly to ecosystem services"--Ecologically-sensitive building and landscape design is abroad, intrinsically interdisciplinary field.
