The project places special emphasis on assessing the scope for active adaptive management in response to new knowledge such as climate information and insights on human decision-making.

Highlights of the project include:

A strong focus on understanding the dynamics of human behavior and decisions in the context of a real-world complex natural/human system;

A diverse and well-balanced team of investigators and outreach specialists from the United States and Argentina that draws equally from a range of disciplines; and

The active involvement of farmers and operational producers of climate information who ensure the relevance of the research and stakeholders’ ownership of the process.
