Abstract | A recreation supply function, a tool to assist planners in making long term decisions is formulated. Using this tool the capacity of a natural resource to support a range of recreational activities is determined and an optimal development strategy for the area is devised. The case study was done on the Whitney Point Reservoir Area in Broome County, New York. The recreation resource base, recreation standards, natural features and the recreation use capacities of this area were investigated. |
