An ecological approach to environmental impact assessment is one that makes optimal use of ecological principles and concepts in the design and conduct of assessment studies and in the prediction of impacts. An ecosystem approach to impact assessment is one in which impact studies and predictions concentrate on phenomena and variables at the community and ecosystems levels. In advocating the former, this report simultaneously endorses a systems approach to environmental assessment, and recognizes the critical importance of ecosystem theory and principles in adopting an ecological approach. 3, record 2, English, - ecosystem%20approach

L'approche écologique pour l'évaluation des incidences environnementales tire le maximum des principes et des concepts écologiques, pour la conception et la réalisation des études et la prévision des incidences. Avec l'approche basée sur les écosystèmes, les études d'incidences et les prévisions sont axées principalement sur les phénomènes et les variables relatifs à la communauté et aux écosystèmes. Bien que l'on préfère la première, on appuie en même temps dans le rapport l'adoption d'une approche fondée sur les écosystèmes pour l'évaluation d'incidences environnementales, et on reconnaît l'importance capitale de la théorie et des principes des écosystèmes pour l'adoption d'une approche écologique. 2, record 2, French, - approche%20%C3%A9cosyst%C3%A9mique
