In many parts of the world, despite or even because of continuing suburbanization, initiatives are being put forth to preserve urban forests, to develop them further and to make them acc- sible to the public. This volume focuses on a particular component of the urban forest - trix – urban wild woodlands. We understand these to be stands of woody plants, within the impact area of cities, whose form is characterized by trees and in which a large leeway for natural processes makes possible a convergence toward wilderness. The wilderness character of these urban woodlands can vary greatly. We differentiate between two kinds of w- derness. The “old wilderness” is the traditional one; it may return slowly to woodland areas when forestry use has been abandoned. The enhancement of wilderness is a task already demanded of urban and peri-urban forestry in many places. This book would like to direct the attention of the reader to a second kind of wilderness, which we call “new wilderness.” This arises on heavily altered urban-industrial areas where abandonment of use makes such change | 出版日期 | Book 2005 | 关键词 | Applied Ecology; Environmental Management; Environmental Sociology; Geoecology; Integration; Landscape Pl | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/b138211 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-06293-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-540-26859-8 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005 |
