Abstract:	"It is becoming generally accepted that effective management of human impacts on the environment requires consideration of all interconnected ecosystem components. This approach, incorporated in the principle of 'ecosystem-based management,' has for years been the subject of much discussion in academic and government circles, and many distinguished authors have offered definitions and recommendations for its implementation.From these, three common themes emerge: systems management, meaningful integration of people, and adaptive management."
