Recreation succession: A simulation model
Abstract Recreation resource managers must deal with a myriad of problems brought on by conflicting goals in maximizing use, minimizing ecological deterioration, and satisfying resource use demands. Rational decision making in this setting demands systematic consideration of the impacts of major changes in the recreational environment on all relevant components of the recreation system. The present study was an effort to provide a model for assessing the impact of a large recreational resort development on existing recreation patterns; specifically, the impact on campground camping in the general area. A dynamic simulation model based on the concepts of user satisfaction and recreation succession was developed and tested for internal consistency. Implications for the decision making process in recreation resource management are discussed.
