Outlook for Outdoor Recreation in the Northern United States: A Technical Document Supporting the Northern Forest Futures Project with Projections Through 2060

摘要

We develop projections of participation and use for 17 nature-based outdoor recreation activities through 2060 for the Northern United States. Similar to the 2010 Resources Planning Act (RPA) assessment, this report develops recreation projections under futures wherein population growth, socioeconomic conditions, land use changes, and climate are allowed to change over time.
