摘要: Policy documents advocate that managers should keep their options open while planning to protect coastal ecosystems from climate-change impacts. However, the actual costs and benefits of maintaining flexibility remain largely unexplored, alternative approaches for decision making under uncertainty may lead better joint outcomes conservation other societal goals. For example, keeping incurs opportunity developers. We devised a framework integrates these with probabilistic forecasts extent sea-level rise find balance between ecosystem protection moderate development. Here, we suggest instead incorporate uncertain predictions into decision-making evaluates In our based on plausible scenarios assuming risk-neutral maker, found substantial development could be accommodated negligible loss environmental assets. Characterization Pareto efficiency provides valuable insight intensity trade-offs conservation. additional work is required improve understanding consequences spatial plans value judgments risk preferences makers stakeholders. Minimizando el Costo de Mantener Opciones Abiertas para la Conservacion en un Clima Cambiante Resumen Los documentos politica abogan que los administradores deben mantener sus opciones abiertas mientras planean proteger ecosistemas costeros impactos del cambio climatico. Sin embargo, beneficio flexibilidad permanece su mayoria sin explorar y acercamientos alternativos toma decisiones bajo incertidumbre pueden llevar mejores resultados conjuntos conservacion otras metas sociales. Por ejemplo, las incurre costos oportunidad desarrolladores. Disenamos marco trabajo integra estos con pronosticos probabilidad extension aumento nivel mar encontrar entre proteccion ecosistema costero desarrollo moderado. Aqui sugerimos lugar abiertas, incorporar predicciones inciertas evalue beneficios desarrollo. En nuestro basado escenarios plausibles suponiendo participa alguien neutral al riesgo, encontramos sustancial puede acomodarse perdida despreciable bienes ambientales. La caracterizacion eficiencia proporcionaron una perspicacia valiosa intensidad equilibrios conservacion. se requiere adicional mejorar entendimiento consecuencias planes espaciales juicios valor preferencias riesgo tomadores partes interesadas.
