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. Designed with the needs of on-ground practitioners and policy advisors in mind: Includes in-depth examples providing “how to” information Broad coverage on different types of natural resources and case studies at a wide range of scales Explicit effort to address different levels of institutional scale Topicality and international relevance, multidisciplinary collaboration - international scope
