The purpose of this article is to review the process of natural disturbance, particularly large disturbances, and the problems in designing and managing nature reserves in order to perpetuate this process and the structure produced by it. I begin with a review of the concept of a disturbance regime, then discuss first the design and second the management of a nature reserve with the disturbance regime in mind.©1992 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
