Using Jamaica Bay—the largest contiguous natural area in New York, home to millions of New Yorkers, and a hub of global air travel with John F. Kennedy International Airport—the authors demonstrate how various components of social-ecological systems interact, ranging from climatic factors to plant populations to human demographics. They also highlight essential tools for creating resilient watersheds, including monitoring and identifying system indicators; computer modeling; green infrastructure; and decision science methods. Finally, they look at the role and importance of a “boundary organization” like the new Science and Resilience Institute at Jamaica Bay in coordinating and facilitating resilience work, and consider significant research questions and prospects for the future of urban watersheds. | 出版日期 | Book 2016Latest edition | 关键词 | Adaptive management; Ecological history; Science and Resilience Institute at Jamaica Bay; Greenstreets; | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.5822/978-1-61091-734-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-61091-734-6 | copyright | Eric W.
