Synopsis

ECOSUD is a challenge for the creation of a new science in line with Prigogine s statement that at all levels we observe events associated with the emergence of novelties and narrative elements, which we may associate with the creative power of nature . This is not only a platform to present novel research related to ecological problems from all over the world; it also gives opportunities for new emergent ideas in science arising from the cross fertilization of different disciplines, including mathematical models and eco-informatics, evolutionary thermodynamics and biodiversity, structures in ecosystems modelling and landscapes to mention but a few. The Seventh International Conference in the well-established series on Ecosystems and Sustainable Development contains papers on the following topics: Greenhouse issues; Ecosystems modelling; Mathematical and system modelling; Natural resources management; Environmental indicators; Sustainability development studies; Recovery of damaged areas; Energy and the environment; Socio economic factors; Soil contamination; Waste management; Water resources; Environmental management.
