The BONUS DESTONY project (2018-2020) is coordinated by Vivi Fleming-Lehtinen (back row, right), Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE). Participating partners are Aarhus University, Stockholm University Baltic Sea Center and Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde (IOW).

 

BONUS DESTONY is a BONUS synthesis projecy aiming at identifying virtual decision support tools (DSTs) developed to assist ecosystem-based management of the Baltic Sea. To help experts and managers find tools that meets their needs, BONUS DESTONY will compile all existing tools in an internet-based catalogue. The project will also identify the remaining needs and requests of the end-users when it comes to development of new tools. 
 
In order to understand these needs and preferences, BONUS DESTONY has published an online survey directed to present and anticipated end-users of decision support tools. Please help us out by answering the questionnaire that is found here: form.jotformeu.com/83373672229362
 
What is a ‘decision support tool’? Our definition is taken broadly, including for instance quantitative assessment tools, model-based management tools and operational systems linked to databases – the criteria being that they are applied to support decision-making when aiming at a sustainable environment in the Baltic Sea.
