Congrats to @TWCribbs for his 2nd place presentation at the Southeast Recreation Research three-minute conference! Watch his presentation on visitor use, and its impacts on key resources at the ACE Basin National Estuarine Research Reserve , here: youtube.com/watch?v=xp9b77sL…
This afternoon we had the pleasure of joining the @USFWSNCTC for a webinar and panel on visitor estimation. We had a great conversation about what's known and unknown about estimating visitation, and some future directions for enhancing estimation methods.
During the webinar we presented results from the first phase of a study we are conducting with collaborators at the @uwearthlab. Learn more about the project here: parksolutionslab.com/nationa…
