The impacts of climate change are possibilities that should be considered in decisions involving long-term commitments for resource planning and management. Such decisions are now being weighed by the International Joint Commission concerning resource management of the Great Lakes basin. This study develops a modeling system and decision framework to address the Great Lakes decision problem. The model will provide insights into the effects climate change may have on the basin and into the more general process of how this information is used and valued. The project addresses three issues: (1) the effective provision of climate change information for Great Lakes management decisions; (2) the evaluation of management flexibility and the worth of better information given the uncertainties surrounding climate change; and (3) the evaluation of how better information affects users and their understanding of resource management for the Great Lakes.

气候变化的影响是我们应该 在涉及长期承诺的决定中考虑到的 资源规划和管理。 这些决定目前正在 国际联合委员会对资源进行了权衡， 管理五大湖流域。 本研究开发了一个 处理五大湖问题的建模系统和决策框架 决策问题。 该模型将提供深入了解 气候变化可能对盆地和更大的地区产生的影响 如何使用和评估这些信息的一般过程。 的 项目涉及三个问题：（1）有效提供 为五大湖管理决策提供气候变化信息; (2)管理柔性的评价与价值 考虑到气候的不确定性， （3）评估更好的信息如何影响 用户及其对资源管理的理解， 五大湖。
