Q2. What are the future works in "Pathology and failure in the design and implementation of adaptive management" ?
Often, this action procrastination leads to missed opportunities and more intractable problems in the near future.
Q3. What is the key to success and failure of adaptive management?
Social networks that arecentered on epistemic communities and extend to stakeholder and policy groups are developed in adaptive assessments and are critical to successes and failures of implementation and management (Gunderson, 1999).
Q4. What are the main reasons for adaptive management failures?
Programmatic failures have been a result of a lack of ecological resilience, inability to control experimentation at appropriate scales, and the lack of flexibility, trust and openness in the human management system (Gunderson and Light, 2006).
Q5. What is the common explanation for the decline of terns?
Itmay be thatwoodyorherbaceous vegetation is encroaching on tern habitat, it may be that some change in habitat conditions increased populations of nest predators, or that foraging habitat has declined, resulting in reduced survival of young.
Q6. What are the nine pathologies that can lead to failure in adaptive management?
A lack of engagement of stakeholders early in the adaptive management process can lead to stakeholders rejecting results that vary from their expectations.
Q7. What is the meaning of adaptive management?
Since its initial introduction and description, adaptive management has been hailed as a solution to endless trial and error approaches to complex natural resource management challenges.
Q8. What is the cost of experimental water releases from the Glen Canyon dam?
Although water releases from the Glen Canyon dam are required under the Colorado Compact, water can be released through the turbines that generate electrical energy or water can be released through by-pass tubes.
Q9. What was the initial response to the invasion by common reed?
One of the initial responses discussed by the Platte River Program Governance Committee was to treat invasion by common reed as external, and attempt to eradicate it and then continue with the planned adaptive management.
Q10. What is the definition of adaptive management?
Many large river adaptive management programs fall into this category, and may focus on manipulations to improve habitat rather than restoring processes e usually flooding and hydrological variation.
Q11. What is the way to deal with surprises?
When surprises intervene in adaptive managementprograms, they should be embraced as opportunities to learn rather than as externalities.
Q12. What can be the primary source of the need for control?
This need for control can be from governance committees, from agencies with the primary responsibility for management, or from other sources (Holling and Meffe, 1996).
