Prichard,Kyle C. Rodman +22 more
TL;DR: This article synthesizes a growing body of evidence of fire-driven conversion and understanding of its causes across western North America and proposes key themes for applied research coproduced by scientists and managers to support decision-making in an era when the prefire forest may not return.

Dilemmas in a general theory of planning
TL;DR: The search for scientific bases for confronting problems of social policy is bound to fail, becuase of the nature of these problems as discussed by the authors, whereas science has developed to deal with tame problems.
and Boundary Objects: Amateurs and Professionals in Berkeley's Museum of Vertebrate Zoology, 1907-39
Susan Leigh,James R. Griesemer +1 more
TL;DR: A model of how one group of actors managed this tension between divergent viewpoints was presented, drawing on the work of amateurs, professionals, administrators and others connected to the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology at the University of California, Berkeley, during its early years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Science for the post-normal age
TL;DR: In this article, a new type of science called post-normal science is proposed to cope with many uncertainties in policy issues of risk and the environment, which can provide a path to the democratization of science, and also a response to the current tendencies to post-modernity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A typology of public engagement mechanisms
Gene Rowe,Lynn J. Frewer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define key concepts in the public participation domain: public communication, public consultation, and public participation, differentiated according to the nature and flow of information between exercise sponsors and participants.
