Ecological engineering has been defined as the design of ecosystems for the mutual benefit of humans and nature. The journal is meant for ecologists who, because of their research interests or occupation, are involved in designing, monitoring, or restoring ecosystems, and can serve as a bridge between ecologists and engineers.Specific topics covered in the journal include: habitat reconstruction; ecotechnology; synthetic ecology; bioengineering; restoration ecology; ecology conservation; ecosystem rehabilitation; stream and river restoration; reclamation ecology; non-renewable resource conservation. Descriptions of specific applications of ecological engineering are acceptable only when situated within context of adding novelty to current research and emphasizing ecosystem restoration. We do not accept purely descriptive reports on ecosystem structures (such as vegetation surveys), purely physical assessment of materials that can be used for ecological restoration, small-model studies carried out in the laboratory or greenhouse with artificial (waste)water or crop studies, or case studies on conventional wastewater treatment and eutrophication that do not offer an ecosystem restoration approach within the paper.
生态工程是指为了人类和自然的共同利益而设计的生态系统。该期刊面向因研究兴趣或职业而参与设计、监测或恢复生态系统的生态学家，可作为生态学家和工程师之间的桥梁。该期刊的具体主题包括：生境重建;生态技术;综合生态学;生物工程;恢复生态学;生态保育;生态系统恢复;溪流和河流修复;围垦生态学;不可再生资源保护。生态工程的具体应用的描述只有在增加当前研究的新颖性和强调生态系统恢复的背景下才是可以接受的。我们不接受关于生态系统结构的纯描述性报告（如植被调查） 、可用于生态恢复的材料的纯物理评估、在实验室或温室中进行的人工（废水）水或作物研究的小模型研究，或在论文中未提供生态系统恢复方法的常规废水处理和富营养化的案例研究。
