. "Adaptive management," in regard to a marine fishery, means a
scientific policy that seeks to improve management of biological
resources, particularly in areas of scientific uncertainty, by
viewing program actions as tools for learning. Actions shall be
designed so that even if they fail, they will provide useful
information for future actions. Monitoring and evaluation shall be
emphasized so that the interaction of different elements within the
system can be better understood.
