The field of industrial ecology is evolving rapidly, and its tools and foundational concepts underpin many areas of sustainability in business and policy. Industrial ecology provides a systemic understanding of material and energy flows that is vital as limits in materials availability, limited recycling, increased demand for the quantification of environmental impact, and concern about future sustainability rise rapidly.This volume focuses on core topics of industrial ecology and is designed as an accessible introduction for students around the world studying sustainability at a time of rapid changes in technology and the environment. Written by world-renowned experts, the book is suitable for students and professionals interested in the field.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...
