Meeting principles seek advice from the ecological rules that advisor the 'assembly' of ecosystems. they give tips on making plans which species could be restored first, after which which could be additional within which order. This paintings explores the strategies and theories when it comes to meeting principles.

For instance, it is important to determine which life stages are most sensitive to disturbance and, therefore, require most attention during restoration.
