  1. Human Dimensions 6’ x 1.5’ x 1.5’ Frank Lupi Michael Kaplowitz Donna Kashian

  2. Ecosystem Services: People

  3. More models

  4. Two Modeling Components • Recreational uses • Beach use • Fishing • Land owners • Preferences & attitudes toward management alternatives • Quantitative models of willingness to change/adopt various land management options

  5. Recreation • Usage = F( costs , environmental quality ) • Behavioral Model • How uses change when EQ changes • Can use for economic valuation

  6. Recreational Uses/Behavioral Models(Research steps) • Collect data with surveys of users • Collect data on environmental quality • Needs spatial & temporal variation • Econometric modeling • Application

  7. Land uses

  8. Land uses: Motivation • Residential and agricultural landowners • No centralized land management agency • Herding cats • What will/won’t landowners do? • What management attributes affect this? • Do incentives work?

  9. Land uses: Surveys/Models • Attitudes toward various mgmt alternatives • Preferences over various mgmt alternatives • Willingness to change • WTC =F(mgmt attributes, costs, incentives) • Formal trade-off analyses • Gives quantitative model of preferences

  10. One type of trade-off model

  11. Model Uncertainty • This is a moving target • Depends entirely on how the project evolves: • AIF in actions

  12. Timeline • Hired student • Developing recreational surveys/sampling • Begin these this summer • Two years of data • Year one focused on use; year 2 flexible • Landowner/management alternatives survey (year 3).
