“…Natural resource management professionals involved in adaptive management learned mostly through assessment, i.e., direct evaluation (e.g., Biggs et al 2011, Kingsford et al 2011, Martin and Pope 2011, Bonanno 2013, Giebels et al 2013, as well as through experimentation and reflection (e.g., Briceño-Linares et al , Bunnefeld et al 2011, Johnson 2011, Smith 2011, Van Wilgen et al 2011, Marcot et al 2012, and to a lesser extent through dialogue (e.g., Foxcroft and McGeoch 2011, Moore et al 2011, Kelly et al 2012, Varady et al 2013). …”

“…In the papers we analyzed, the emphasis on assessment is paralleled by the dominance of single-loop learning (e.g., Briceño-Linares et al 2011, Holness and Biggs 2011, Kingsford et al 2011, Martin and Pope 2011, Bonanno 2013, with only a small number of papers (e.g., , Varady et al 2013) exclusively adopting double-loop learning. However, a significant number of papers showed evidence of the parallel and blended use of single-and doubleloop learning (e.g., Bunnefeld et al 2011, Johnson 2011, McLoughlin et al 2011, Moore et al 2011, Rumpff et al 2011, Scheepers et al 2011, Smith 2011, Marcot et al 2012) by implementing and modifying field experiments or developing, testing, and refining models, consistent with the approach advocated by Walters (1986) and Holling (1978).…”

ABSTRACT. Adaptive management is often advocated as a solution to understanding and managing complexity in social-ecological systems. Given the centrality of learning in adaptive management, it remains unclear how learning in adaptive management is understood to occur, who learns, what they learn about, and how they learn. We conducted a systematic review using the Thomson Reuters Web of Science, and searched specifically for examples of the practical implementation of adaptive management between 2011 and 2013, i.e., excluding articles that suggested frameworks, models, or recommendations for future action. This provided a subset of 22 papers that were analyzed using five elements: the aims of adaptive management as stated in each paper; the reported achievements of adaptive management; what was learned; who learned; and how they learned. Our results indicate that, although most published adaptive management initiatives aimed at improvements in biological conservation or ecosystem management, scholars of adaptive management tend to report on learning more about governance and about learning, than about ecosystems or biological conservation. Whereas almost all the papers (91%) listed improvements in biological conservation and ecosystem management as aims, 59% reported these as achievements. Whereas only 27% listed improved governance as an aim, 73% mentioned this as an achievement. Conservation scientists and academics reporting on adaptive management tend to learn among themselves, and very seldom (18%) with external stakeholders. Adaptive ecosystem management is dominated by direct assessment and single-loop learning aimed at improving existing practices (86%), with about 50% engaged in double-loop learning and a similar number in deutero-learning (learning about learning). Some adaptive managers (36%) combined double-and single-loop learning and the majority of these (6/8) reported on conservation achievements. A possible explanation for these findings is that adaptive management is an evolutionary process and in most instances is still in an early pioneering stage, possibly held back by participants' capacity for learning. The constraint of learning capacity may also explain why so few adaptive management initiatives reported on learning with societal stakeholders.

“…Adaptive management can help mitigate anthropogenic impacts resulting from several of these global changes. This includes species decline and habitat loss (Fontaine, 2011;Smith, 2011), recreational harvest of animals that migrate across political boundaries (Johnson, 2011) and other transboundary resource management issues, regulation of human participation in natural resource-based recreational activities (Martin and Pope, 2011), and management of competing interests on public lands with limited resources (Moore et al, 2011).…”

a b s t r a c tThe challenges that face humanity today differ from the past because as the scale of human influence has increased, our biggest challenges have become global in nature, and formerly local problems that could be addressed by shifting populations or switching resources, now aggregate (i.e., "scale up") limiting potential management options. Adaptive management is an approach to natural resource management that emphasizes learning through management based on the philosophy that knowledge is incomplete and much of what we think we know is actually wrong. Adaptive management has explicit structure, including careful elucidation of goals, identification of alternative management objectives and hypotheses of causation, and procedures for the collection of data followed by evaluation and reiteration. It is evident that adaptive management has matured, but it has also reached a crossroads. Practitioners and scientists have developed adaptive management and structured decision making techniques, and mathematicians have developed methods to reduce the uncertainties encountered in resource management, yet there continues to be misapplication of the method and misunderstanding of its purpose. Ironically, the confusion over the term "adaptive management" may stem from the flexibility inherent in the approach, which has resulted in multiple interpretations of "adaptive management" that fall along a continuum of complexity and a priori design. Adaptive management is not a panacea for the navigation of 'wicked problems' as it does not produce easy answers, and is only appropriate in a subset of natural resource management problems where both uncertainty and controllability are high. Nonetheless, the conceptual underpinnings of adaptive management are simple; there will always be inherent uncertainty and unpredictability in the dynamics and behavior of complex social-ecological systems, but management decisions must still be made, and whenever possible, we should incorporate learning into management.Published by Elsevier Ltd.

“…Changes in the regional fishery (Martin and Pope, 2011), or available water bodies for anglers to choose, result in changes in network structure directing the social-ecological system. Resilience of social-ecological systems has been proposed as one particular metric that may be particularly suited for study with network analysis (Janssen et al, 2006).…”
