Environmental resilience: perspectives, strategies and applications

Over the past forty years, several disciplines have adopted and used the term “resilience” to describe the ecological, psychological, sociological, organisational, socio-technical, and social-ecological systems. Environmental resilience, noted during natural hazards, was initially recognised as the...
