Abstract
  • This dissertation examines learning driven adaptations in salmon recovery efforts and water resources management in Oregon. The case study utilizes a framework highlighting the connections between human and natural systems. Semi-structured interviews are used to analyze interactions between rural riparian landowners and watershed council staffs living and working in Oregon’s Upper Willamette River basin. Findings indicate that 1) different types of learning interventions and peer-to-peer interactions are key drivers of learning, 2) natural resource management and learning interventions should be tailored towards social-ecological systems, and 3) collaborative watershed partnerships can integrate different knowledge types and increase adaptive capacity.
