Abstract |
The report describes the adaptation of threshold analysis to environmental planning, with particular emphasis on planning to reduce the impacts of recreation use on park lands. The technique seeks to define 'ultimate environmental thresholds' or stress limits beyond which an ecosystem would not be capable of returning to its original conditions and balance. The report describes the application of this technique in development of a Physical Plan for the Tatra National Park located in the Carpathian Mountains in Southern Poland. |
