中文简介

生态指标的最终目的是将生态环境指标的监测和评价与管理实践相结合。该期刊提供了一个论坛，讨论应用科学的发展和审查传统指标的应用，以及理论、模型和定量方法，如指数的发展。对下列领域的研究将发表。?生态环境各项指标和指标。?新的指标，以及指标开发、测试和使用的新方法和方法。?指数的开发和建模，例如跨多个尺度和资源的指标套件的应用。?资源、系统和规模指标的分析和研究。?使用基于指标的监测和评估程序，整合社会和其他评估指标，以生成科学严谨和政治相关的评估。?研究如何将研究指标转化为直接应用于管理目的的方法。?通过使用指标，实现更广泛的评估目标和方法，如生物多样性、生物完整性和可持续性。?资源特定指标，如景观、农业生态系统、森林生态系统、水生生态系统、湿地等。该杂志寻求创新的论文，为环境指示提供新的发展和方法步骤。从简单的监测方案或单一的案例研究中提交的结果，导致没有从指示理论、指示方法或管理观点进行任何探索的描述性方法，被认为不适合发表在《生态指标》上。

英文简介

The ultimate aim of Ecological Indicators is to integrate the monitoring and assessment of ecological and environmental indicators with management practices. The journal provides a forum for the discussion of the applied scientific development and review of traditional indicator applications as well as for theoretical, modelling and quantitative approaches such as index development. Research into the following areas will be published.? All aspects of ecological and environmental indicators and indices.? New indicators, and new approaches and methods for indicator development, testing and use.? Development and modelling of indices, e.g. application of indicator suites across multiple scales and resources.? Analysis and research of resource, system- and scale-specific indicators.? Methods for integration of social and other valuation metrics for the production of scientifically rigorous and politically-relevant assessments using indicator-based monitoring and assessment programs.? Approaches on how research indicators can be transformed into direct application for management purposes.? Broader assessment objectives and methods, e.g. biodiversity, biological integrity, and sustainability, through the use of indicators.? Resource-specific indicators such as landscape, agroecosystems, forests ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems, wetlands, etc.The journal seeks innovative papers which provide new developmental and methodological steps for environmental indication. Submissions of results from simple monitoring programs or single case studies, resulting in descriptive approaches without any exploration from the theory of indication, from the methodology of indication, or from the management points of view are not considered suitable for publication in Ecological Indicators.
