The significance of stranding data as indicators of cetacean populations at sea: Modelling the drift of cetacean carcasses (2012, background): “They are considered as communication tools between scientists and policy-makers (Mace and Baillie, 2007; Müller and Lenz, 2006; Schiller et al., 2001; Turnhout et al., 2007).”
THE MEANING OF AGRICULTURAL SUSTAINABILITY: EVIDENCE FROM A CONJOINT CHOICE SURVEY (2008, background): “But the scientific quality alone does not determine the actual usefulness of a method in policy and management (Turnhout et al., 2007) because the ultimate metric for useful information is whether it actually enables people to achieve the desired outcome (McNie, 2007).”
Matching knowledge brokering strategies to environmental policy problems and settings (2009, background): “Scientists may oblige by providing the broad concept to which all agree (Turnhout et al., 2007).”
Governance, scale and the environment: the importance of recognizing knowledge claims in transdisciplinary arenas (2011, background): “…observation resonates with the current Science and Technology (STS) literature, in which knowledge is considered to be co-produced in the interface of science, nature, society, and policy (Gibbons et al. 1994, Gibbons 2000, Jasanoff 2003, Nowotny et al. 2003, Jasanoff 2006, Turnhout et al. 2007).”
