Adaptive management is the recommended means for continuing
ecosystem management and use of natural resources, especially in
the context of 'integrated natural resource management'.
Conceptually, adaptive management is simply learning from past
management actions to improve future planning and management.
However, adaptive management has proved difficult to achieve in
practice.
With a view to facilitating better practice, this new book
presents lessons learned from case studies, to provide managers
with ready access to relevant information. Cases are drawn from a
number of disciplinary fields, including management of protected
areas, watersheds and farms, rivers, forests, biodiversity and
pests. Examples from Australia, New Zealand, the USA, Canada, the
UK and Europe are presented at a variety of scales, from individual
farms, through regional projects, to state-wide planning.
While the book is designed primarily for practitioners and
policy advisors in the fields of environmental and natural resource
management, it will also provide a valuable reference for students
and researchers with interests in environmental, natural resource
and conservation management.
