Abstract

How is the adaptive management applied to the implementation of an environmental restoration project and how can the succession/evolution of the project be evaluated? To get the clues of the answer to these questions, the US experiences have been studied. In Poplar Island in Chesapeake Bay and Sonoma Baylands in San Francisco Bay, the large scale environmental restoration projects are carried out by beneficial use of dredged material from harbor development works. An iterative process, where the initial management tools and plans are periodically reviewed through the monitoring, is applied as the management in these projects. The review process is facilitated by concrete success criteria.
