ABSTRACT:
The natural resource management field involves
complex scientific and anthropogenic interactions.
Modellers need to be able to mix science with art
to produce models that incorporate and simplify
this complexity. Is it too much to ask them to
provide concise information to managers that
meet their needs without providing too much
technical detail on their model? Probably yes.
Most decision makers are not experts in
modelling and want to know the overall
interpretation of the results that come from the
model and how much they can trust these results,
rather than technical details of the model.
This paper provides a commentary on experiences
gained from working with government agencies on
the Cooperative Research Centre for Coastal Zone,
Estuary and Waterway Management (Coastal CRC)
project: Modelling, Monitoring and Management
Interfacing for Waterways (3M Project).
