Abstract

The science of restoration ecology has grown in response to an increasing environmental need. This need is not limited to any one type of ecosystem, or any one continent (Bradshaw, 1983). In the spirit of exploring international restoration efforts, I will examine a restoration project being conducted by Dr. Krystyna Urbanska in the Swiss Alps on groomed ski slopes. Part of the focus of this project is rehabilitating an area that will continue to be used recreationally. The forces that have contributed to this site’s degradation are being and will continue to be practiced. This project is finding ways to encourage plant growth while the disturbances associated with the ski industry continue.
