| Tóm tắt: | Ecology is the scientific study of the interrelations among living things and their environment. Ecological knowledge effects an
awareness of precarious interdependencies
among the myriad organisms, large and
minuscule, between organisms and nonliving components of ecosystems, and the
pervasive human impacts that threaten
these relations. Ecology thus obviates our
dependency on, and our relation to, natural
processes and systems. Perhaps no science
more so than ecology has generated more
knowledge with implications relating to
ethics, morality and human behaviour.
In contrast, silviculture is the art and
science of tending forests to meet human
needs. Because silviculture is usually
directly involved in the extraction of biomass, it produces disturbances along with
associated ecological side effects. Silviculture is thus based on the planned use of
controlled and directed disturbances to
achieve defined human objectives. Ideally, it
should be based on scientific principles that
assure that specified silvicultural goals are
consistent with preserving or improving a
forest’s ecological qualities, are compatible
with its natural dynamic, and thereby provide reasonable assurance of the forest’s sustainability. |
