Abstract
This issue introduces a new feature of Pacific Conservation Biology ? a theme issue. In this case the theme is "Landscape Ecology", a developing field in conservation biology which is strong in Australia and which, as these papers indicate, has considerable application to practical conservation. The papers are of high quality ? all were subject to critical review and revision ? and demonstrate the breadth of disciplines contributing to Landscape Ecology. A particularly pleasing feature is the range of organizations from which the authors come; Universities, CSIRO, State conservation agencies and the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney. This approaches the ideal we have set for the journal. The papers were submitted subsequent to a symposium on the topic at the 1993 meeting of the Ecological Society of Australia and were edited by Richard Hobbs; my thanks to him for the original suggestion and his extraordinary efficiency! I expect that we will have more such theme issues in the future, perhaps one a year, and I would welcome suggestions.
