Principle 4: Recognizing potential gains from management, there is usually a need to understand and manage the ecosystem in an economic context
Principle 5: Conservation of ecosystem structure and functioning, in order to maintain ecosystem services, should be a priority target of the ecosystem approach
Principle 6: Ecosystem must be managed within the limits of their functioning
Principle 7: The ecosystem approach should be undertaken at the appropriate spatial and temporal scales
Principle 8: Recognizing the varying temporal scales and lag-effects that characterize ecosystem processes, objectives for ecosystem management should be set for the long term
Principle 9: Management must recognize the change is inevitable
Principle 10: The ecosystem approach should seek the appropriate balance between, and integration of, conservation and use of biological diversity
Principle 11: The ecosystem approach should consider all forms of relevant information, including scientific and indigenous and local knowledge, innovations and practices
