A special focus on restoration science

A special focus on restoration science T his special issue of Ecological Management & Restoration is a temporary departure from our normal format in that it focuses entirely on research reports. Each of these considers some aspect of assessing ecosystem condition, setting restoration goals or measuring restoration success — three processes which are recognized by students, practitioners and academics alike as being fundamental to the effective practice of ecological restoration. While the papers are all formal reports, you will notice that they are not ‘merely academic’. Far from it. All are firmly grounded not only in good science, but also in specific questions of high relevance to ecosystem managers and restoration practitioners — a point further touched on by the journal's Chairperson and long‐time restoration ecologist, Professor Richard Hobbs in his Guest Editorial for this issue. While appreciating the papers in this issue, you will, I’m sure, also appreciate the generous financial support of the Sponsors (acknowledged on the back cover) who have funded the production of this issue. Whether government department, research agency or industry or restoration groups, each Sponsor is dedicated to raising the standard of restoration science and practice and believes that this Journal has a significant role to play in this process. The Journal Board sincerely hopes that you enjoy and gain insights from the high quality work of the authors who have contributed to this special issue.

Abstract

T his special issue of Ecological Management & Restoration is a temporary departure from our normal format in that it focuses entirely on research reports. Each of these considers some aspect of assessing ecosystem condition, setting restoration goals or measuring restoration success — three processes which are recognized by students, practitioners and academics alike as being fundamental to the effective practice of ecological restoration. While the papers are all formal reports, you will notice that they are not ‘merely academic’. Far from it. All are firmly grounded not only in good science, but also in specific questions of high relevance to ecosystem managers and restoration practitioners — a point further touched on by the journal's Chairperson and long‐time restoration ecologist, Professor Richard Hobbs in his Guest Editorial for this issue. While appreciating the papers in this issue, you will, I’m sure, also appreciate the generous financial support of the Sponsors (acknowledged on the back cover) who have funded the production of this issue. Whether government department, research agency or industry or restoration groups, each Sponsor is dedicated to raising the standard of restoration science and practice and believes that this Journal has a significant role to play in this process. The Journal Board sincerely hopes that you enjoy and gain insights from the high quality work of the authors who have contributed to this special issue. Tein McDonald Editor
