Ecosystem Integrity
Integrity is often defined as an environmental condition that exhibits little or no human influence, maintaining the structure, function, and species composition present, prior to, and independent of human intervention [i.e. integrity is closely associated with ideas of naturalness, particularly the notion of pristine wilderness (Angermeier and Karr 1994, Callicott and others 1999)].
