TL;DR: The nature ofexperiential and expert knowledge is described, the role of experiential knowledge as a complement to scientific knowledge is discussed and the interplay between experientIAL knowledge with conservation research and practice is explained using a simple conceptual model of how individuals learn.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors elicited the expert knowledge of academics involved in research and practice of knowledge exchange from different disciplines and backgrounds to review research themes, identify gaps and questions, and develop a research agenda for furthering understanding about knowledge exchange.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a way of thinking about learning to assist individuals to make better use of their personal experiences to develop understanding of environmental systems and suggest that adaptive expertise (an individual's ability to deal with new situations) is particularly relevant for environmental researchers and practitioners.

TL;DR: Adaptive capacity is increasingly recognized as essential for maintaining the resilience of social-ecological systems and for coping with environmental change as mentioned in this paper, and four main requirements enable societies to successfully adapt to change: (1) the will and intention to maintain social ecological resilience, (2) knowledge about current problems and the desired direction of change, (3) proactive behavior, and (4) the capacity to change existing patterns of behavior.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors capture the implicit understanding of seven experienced on-ground conservation managers about the conservation issues affecting the Ramsar listed Macquarie Marshes in New South Wales, Australia.
