Decision Making under Deep Uncertainty (2019, unknown): “DAP occurs in twophases: (1) the design phase, inwhich the dynamic adaptive plan,monitoring program, and various pre- and post-implementation actions are designed, and (2) the implementation phase, in which the plan and the monitoring program are implemented and contingent actions are taken, if nece”
Policy mixes for sustainability transitions: An extended concept and framework for analysis (2016, background): “For example, adaptive policy making allows for adjusting the policy mix as “the world changes and new information becomes available” (Walker et al., 2001; p. 283)., thereby enabling policy learning for transitions (Loorbach, 2007; Rotmans et al., 2001).”
An uncertain future, deep uncertainty, scenarios, robustness and adaptation: How do they fit together? (2016, background): “As part of static adaptive approaches, a basic policy remains fixed and contingency actions are taken to stay on course (e.g. Walker et al., 2001) or a set of adaptive pathways remains fixed over the length of the planning horizon, although there are opportunities to move between them (e.g. Kang…”

Assessing the Dutch Energy Transition Policy: How Does it Deal with Dilemmas of Managing Transitions? (2007, background): “The capacity to react can be enhanced through flexible designs (Verganti, 1999), adaptive management (Lee, 1993; Walker et al., 2001), the use of portfolios and the use of capital-extensive solutions with relatively short life times (Collingridge, 1980).”
