Book Agency Capacity for Recreation Science and Management

Download or read book Agency Capacity for Recreation Science and Management written by Lee K. Cerveny and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the capacity of natural resource agencies to generate scientific knowledge and information for use by resource managers in planning and decisionmaking. This exploratory study focused on recreation in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service. A semistructured, open-ended interview guide elicited insights from 58 managers and 28 researchers about recreation issues, information exchange, and research-management interactions. Data were coded and analyzed using Atlas.ti®, a qualitative analysis software program. Results indicate that recreation managers seek information to address user conflicts and manage diverse activities across sites and landscapes. Managers do not always turn to the research community when looking for scientific information and are uncertain about the proper channels for communication. Managers consult a variety of information sources and aggregate various types of scientific information for use in planning and management. Managers desire greater and more diverse interactions with researchers to promote knowledge exchange useful for addressing recreation problems. Barriers to interaction include organizational differences between management and research, researcher responsiveness, relevance of information to manager needs, and the lack of formal interaction opportunities. Several structural processes were suggested to facilitate opportunities for greater interaction and information exchange.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Forest Science & Technology Course of Action is a set of priorities for the generation, dissemination, and application of scientific & technical knowledge in seven action areas concentrating on the development of the Canadian Forest Service's capacity in technology transfer, training, communication, and forest management expertise. This publication reviews Canadian Forest Service research as it corresponds to the thematic areas expressed in the Course of Action, highlighting the extent to which the Service's program responds to Canadian forest policy initiatives and forest sector priorities. The thematic areas covered are: a team approach to forest science & technology management; developing methodologies for measuring indicators for sustainable forest management; public participation; forest ecosystems; the forest industry; forest stewardship; and relationships with Aboriginal peoples. For each area, the underlying issue is stated, followed by an overview of research and a selection of current experiments & studies.
