The United Nations General Assembly has declared 2021–2030 the Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, during which the recovery of degraded nature should be massively upscaled to effectively fight the climate and biodiversity crises. Furthermore, the Parties of the Conference on Biological Diversity confront the challenge of setting ambitious targets to not only protect species and ecosystems, but also to revert degradation trends and restore functional nature.
The scientific community plays a key role in building the knowledge base necessary to support the global restoration agenda, with scientific research in spatial ecology, macroecology, biogeography and at their intersections with society and policy particularly relevant. This Ecography special issue addresses this need with a set of empirical and theoretical articles that also point to next directions for the field of restoration science. I co-edited this special issue with Néstor Fernández, Henrique M Pereira and Jens-Christian Svenning. I led the writing of the editorial, and of one of the contributed papers. Also see the video abstract that describes what Restoration is and what research is currently going on. And finally, listen to Ecography editor Jens-Christian Svenning talk about Restoration Ecology and why it is important for the future of biodiversity. Podcast here.
