所有生物体都会改变其周围环境，而人类现在有能力在越来越大的时间和空间尺度上影响环境。事实上，二十世纪的机械和工程进步极大地扩大了人类活动的规模。其中包括自然资源的使用和重新分配。不幸的是，这些活动可能会产生意想不到的后果。环境系统对这些活动的反应通常会减弱或丧失自然功能。幸运的是，环境管理可以在改善这些负面影响方面发挥重要作用。其目的是促进可持续发展，即在不严重破坏环境多样性和丰富性的情况下丰富大多数人的生活。然而，管理工具本身也经常成为产生负面条件的狭隘视角的牺牲品。面临的挑战是开发一种系统级指数，该指数可以指示生态系统动态的组织和方向。该指数可以检测系统何时将其配置改变为新的、可能不太理想的动态状态，并且可以被纳入系统的可持续管理计划中。在本章中，我们演示了如何使用费舍尔信息（FI）作为这样的环境系统指数。
All organisms alter their surroundings, and humans now have the ability to affect environments at increasingly larger temporal and spatial scales. Indeed, mechanical and engineering advances of the twentieth century greatly enhanced the scale of human activities. Among these are the use and redistribution of natural resources. Unfortunately, these activities can have unexpected and unintended consequences. Environmental systems often respond to these activities with diminished or lost capacity of natural function. Fortunately, environmental management can play an important role in ameliorating these negative effects. The aim is to promote sustainable development, i.e., enrichment of the lives of the majority of people without seriously degrading the diversity and richness of the environment. However, the management tools themselves often fall prey to the same narrow levels of perspective that generated the negative conditions. The challenge is to develop a system-level index, one that indicates the organization and direction of ecological system dynamics. This index could detect when the system is changing its configuration to a new, perhaps less desirable, dynamic regime and may be incorporated into a sustainable management plan for the system. In this chapter, we demonstrate the use of Fisher information (FI) as such an environmental system index.
