The Hazleton ecological land planning study
Human adaptations in a rural and urban environment: The basis for possible future land use patterns
Abstract Natural scientists, natural science trained land planners, and cultural anthropologists meshed their perceptions to study and plan for the Hazleton Region of northeastern Pennsylvania. This interdisciplinary group developed an applied human ecological approach to regions. This applied human ecology has expanded and enhanced the natural science based land use planning method. Land suitability formulation is presented as a composite evaluation of the ecological capabilities of the natural environment to support human use and the present and potential different human uses of regions based on a variety of adaptive postures. The various definitions of health or the quality of life of regional user groups become criteria for the compatibility and grouping of naturally capable sites.
