  • The ecoremediation educational polygon : a 'classroom in nature'
    Vovk, Ana
    In a wetland area the basic functions of ecoremediation (ERM) are a high-buffer capacity, a self-cleansing capacity, an increase in biological diversity and the retention of water. Typical forms of ... ERM include phytoremediation, introducing buffer areas and constructing wetlands with the express intention of purifying contaminated water. Thus, ERM is useful for a revitalisation of degraded areas, elimination of excessive nutrient content and purification of wastewater. As we show in this article, the application of ERM in the restoration of degraded areas can form an integral element of environmental education and enable students to develop an integrated and holistic understanding of the natural environment.
