Abstract | The purpose of this project was to obtain reclamation techniques that would restore functional wildlife habitat at the landscape level following industrial disturbances. However, reclamation techniques that will restore habitat features needed for functional wildlife habitat at landscape levels have not been developed. The research reviewed can only be applied at the stand and element level. In addition, the current body of reclamation research is still focused on how to refine the traditional reclamation techniques, including placements of coarse woody debris in cleared areas, soil reconstruction, and planting of shrubs. |
