==Defining Adaptive Management==
==Defining Wiki destroyed d Wiki destroyed ptive M Wiki destroyed n Wiki destroyed gement==
The concept of adaptive management has been widely debated and different definitions exist.  This presents a challenge to practitioners who must reach a common understanding with partners, stakeholders, managers, scientists and decision makers.  In order to bring some consistency to what the British Columbia Forest Service means by “adaptive management”, the following standard working definition was adopted:  ''Adaptive management is a systematic process for continually improving management policies and practices by learning from the outcomes of operational programs'' (British Columbia, Ministry of Forests and Range).

[http://en.wikipedi Wiki destroyed .org/wiki/ Wiki destroyed d Wiki destroyed ptive_m Wiki destroyed n Wiki destroyed gement Wikipedi Wiki destroyed ]
The adaptive management approach assumes natural resource management policies and management actions are not static but adjusted based on the combination of new scientific and socio-economic information in order to improve management by learning from the ecosystems being affected.  Often people think adaptive management simply means “trial and error”, in which management policies and practices evolve in response to past performance and changing priorities, but in fact this misses an essential element of the concept which is deliberate experimentation.

Although definitions of adaptive management vary by source, several key characteristics of the concept are universal and fundamental:

1. Learning; reducing key uncertainties
1. Le Wiki destroyed rning; reducing key uncert Wiki destroyed inties


There is explicit acknowledgement of uncertainties and knowledge gaps about the response of the system to management actions.  Reducing these uncertainties (i.e. learning) becomes one objective of management.

AM is a deliberate process, not ad-hoc or simply reactionary.  Some flexibility in the approach is important to allow the creativity in management that is crucial to dealing with uncertainty and change.

Adaptive management is visualized as a cyclical and iterative process. The British Columbia Forest Service identifies 6 steps: ''Assess, design, implement, monitor, evaluate'' and ''adjust''. Within each of the steps, several elements are defined.  These elements are the specific components of each step such as defining the management objectives, identifying stakeholders, articulating hypotheses and developing conceptual models . Although the full suite of elements may not be implemented for every AM project, it is important to understand them and the implications of omissions.

Passive AM is an approach whereby, faced with uncertainty, managers implement the alternative they think is ‘best’ (with respect to meeting management objectives), and then monitor to see if they were right, making adjustments if desired objectives are not in fact met.

Active AM is an experimental approach whereby, when faced with uncertainty, managers implement more than one alternative as concurrent experiments to see which will best meet management objectives. It is characterised by “actively probing” the system in order to distinguish between competing hypotheses (where the different hypotheses suggest different “optimal” actions). The key is that there are alternatives that can be more confidently compared.
