Author Description

Excerpt from A Research Plan to Study Appropriate River Recreation Use on the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, New River Gorge National River, Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River: Submitted To, Usdi National Park Service, Mid-Atlantic Region Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; July 1985 The question of what constitutes an appropriate recreation experience is strictly a matter of personal taste. It is not a question science can answer. However, what research can do is document what experiences are desired from the perspective of the recreationist. It also can specify the conditions which are necessary for these experiences to be generated. Having identified the necessary conditions, research can then help evaluate the effectiveness of various management strategies in creating or maintaining them.
