Human attitudes in environmental management: Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and policy option simulations analysis for a coal-mine ecosystem in China.

TLDR
To assess knowledge of and attitudes towards coal-mine ecosystems among stakeholders and then simulate policy options in a typical coal-mining region in China, the Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping (FCM) method was used and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was used to conduct simulations.

Decision support models in climate policy

TL;DR: A critical review of decision support frameworks—namely Portfolio Analysis, Multiple Criteria Decision Making and Fuzzy Cognitive Maps—is provided, and a new integrative approach, appropriately exploiting blends of these frameworks, is proposed to productively complement IAMs, towards enhancing climate policy support.

Fuzzy cognitive mapping in support of integrated ecosystem assessments: Developing a shared conceptual model among stakeholders.

TL;DR: These findings suggest that while all of the stakeholders interviewed perceive the subject ecosystem as a complex series of social and ecological interconnections, there are a core set of components that are present in most of the groups' models that are crucial in managing the system towards some desired outcome.

Ecological models based on people’s knowledge: a multi-step fuzzy cognitive mapping approach

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-step fuzzy cognitive mapping approach is proposed to create ecological models with both expert and local people's knowledge, which can be made of almost any system or problem.
