Since its introduction in the 1980s, adaptive management has become a cornerstone of resource conservation. Case studies illustrate its value--for example, determining how disturbance around eagle nests should be controlled and managing harvests of a goose population causing economic damage. Researchers, conservationists, and wildlife managers will value this book as both a practical and technical introduction to the adaptive management process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecisions on how to best conserve and manage biological resources cannot be made based on ecological research alone. They must consider multiple decision-makers, competing stakeholder values, the complex interplay of social and ecological systems, and uncertain decision outcomes. Adaptive management offers a unifying framework that helps balance ecological and socioeconomic goals, while improving long-term outcomes through learning and subsequent adaptation of conservation strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFred A.
