Resource description:
The Ecosystem Approach Handbook has been developed by Natural England and Countryscape to help landscape scale partnerships benefit from the ecosystem approach. It builds on partnership projects that Natural England has supported in Bassenthwaite and the South Pennines to help shape future management in these areas. The handbook also draws on experience of members of the Ecosystems Knowledge Network.
