Scenario analysis is a tool that aids in forecasting, evaluating, and communicating
outcomes of potential management actions under different potential conditions such as
land use change or sea level rise. However, we lack specific guidance on conducting
scenario analyses and general information on the usefulness of scenario analysis. This
presentation will:
Highlight the usefulness of scenario analysis as a tool for evaluating uncertain
outcomes.
Explain the mechanics of the scenario analysis process.
Present the application of scenario analyses in USACE projects.
