THQ: List 3 elements fundamental to ecosystem management that differentiate from traditional natural resource resource management. (C2) - 1. SPACE- EM focus on holistic, contextual view of the resource seeking to manage- thus looking at the entire ecosystem versus the more site-specific, reductionist focus of TM 2. TIME- EM focuses on long-term sustainability, versus TM's focus on short-term resource extraction and lack of learning or experimentation 3. STAKEHOLDERS- EM involves all ...
