Complex Systems: 'Stakeholder Analysis of the Kenai River Fishery: Who's Who in the Race For Fish' - Feb. 20, 2015

Friday, Feb. 20, 11:30 a.m.-12:45 p.m. Administration/Humanities Building, Room 143A

Join Meagan B. Krupa, Ph.D., biology professor at UAA and APU, as she presents "Stakeholder Analysis of the Kenai River Fishery: Who's Who in the Race For Fish."

Abstract: The Kenai River fishery is a unique system with nearly fifty federal, state, local and nonprofit groups influencing its political, ecological and social structure. While extensive ecological data exists for this fishery, the complexity of its stakeholder relationships has largely been ignored. This study identifies the key actors within the Kenai River fishery and assesses their interactions to improve the sustainable management of this social-ecological system.
