Answer 1

D. By learning from previous results to make a better decision.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the use of system monitoring, adaptive management is a structured decision-making process that aims to lessen uncertainty over time. The decision-making process and resource management work together to actively or inactively gather the data needed to improve management in the future. Adaptive management builds on the learning process from past results and enhances management outcomes over time. The benefits of sustainable resource management methods, such as biodiversity and its connection to ecosystem function, are learned through adaptive management.
