Overview

Ecosystem management is an approach to managing natural resources and human activities that considers whole ecosystems rather than individual species or resources in isolation. It aims to sustain ecological function, biodiversity, and the services ecosystems provide while balancing economic and social needs. By accounting for the interactions among species, habitats, and human use, ecosystem management seeks to maintain healthy, resilient systems and to manage resources such as fisheries, wildlife, water, and land in a sustainable way. Research connected to the Wildlife journal and its affiliates illustrates these principles. One study argues for adopting a wider, ecosystem-oriented approach to fisheries management, while another presents an ecosystem-based fishery management strategy for Antarctic krill that accounts for the needs of whales and other predators and for potential climate-change effects. Additional work uses geographic information systems to analyze habitat suitability for wildlife conservation. Together these peer-reviewed, open-access articles gather evidence relevant to ecosystem management, providing context for how integrated, ecosystem-level approaches guide the sustainable management of wildlife, fisheries, and natural resources.
