Final Report: Survey Results.(Duluth: Department of Sociology-Anthropology, Outdoor Recreation Program, Center for Community & Regional Research, University of Minnesota, Duluth., 1990) Fleischman, William A; Franz, Robert E, Jr; Gilbertson, Kenneth LThe successful design, development and marketing of programs depends upon a number of factors, not the least of which are funding, staffing, and demand. It is most often the case that demand provides the basis for decisions regarding funding and staffing. Therefore, the description of the nature and extent of the demand is crucial for program management. The International Wolf Center (IWC) expressed a need for data that would provide a basis for managing and developing programs. The research that is being reported here was designed to assist the IWC in its efforts to develop and market new as well as existing programs. There are a number of ways in which demand can be assessed in order to (1) describe the existing and projected interest, (2) determine the direction for program development, and (3) provide a basis for structuring programs to meet and cultivate the variety of interests in wolves and wolf-related topics. The method used in this study to meet the program development and marketing objectives of the International Wolf Center involved the development of a questionnaire. This questionnaire was designed to collect data which would provide the basis for describing the nature and extent of the demand for IWC programs and services, and to facilitate the identification and development of the market segments.Item Potential Market and Economic Analysis for the Red River Valley Bird Observatory and Gateway Nature Center(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2005) Salk, Raintry; Erkkila, Daniel L.; Schneider, Ingrid E.Item R code and output supporting: Time series sightability modeling of animal populations(2017-03-29) ArchMiller, Althea A; Fieberg, John R; Dorazio, Robert M; St. Clair, Katherine; althea.archmiller@gmail.com; ArchMiller, Althea AThe goal of our study was to expand a previously developed model-based approach to include random effects and a temporal spline for time series modeling of multiple years of operational survey data. We developed a Bayesian hierarchical model as our framework to build and compare fixed-effects and temporal model-based sightability models applied to 12 years of MN moose operational survey data. Here, we share the Program R code and data necessary to replicate the manuscript results that demonstrate how our time series sightability modeling approach can increase the precision of population estimators and predict population dynamics with smoother (and thus more realistic trends) through time.Item State of Sustainable Tourism in Minnesota (2007)(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2007) Schneider, Ingrid E.Sustainable tourism has been of increasing interest in Minnesota and beyond. However, little information on attitudes toward or actual sustainable practice implementation exists. Therefore, this project assessed the ‘state of sustainable tourism in Minnesota’ to inform program & product development.Item Study of Current Area Visitors: Customer Profiles(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2002) Gartner, William C.; Love, Lisa L.Presentation of comparisons between Brainerd, Detroit Lakes, Ely, Pipestone, and Skakopee customer profiles.Item Study of Current Area Visitors: Customer Profiles - Northwest Minnesota(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2004) Gartner, William C.; Salk, RaintryItem West Central Minnesota Recreational Trails Inventory.(2002) Jensen, ElizabethItem Wildlife Diversity: The Links of Life(St. Paul, MN: University of Minnesota Extension Service, 1994) Wemmer, Lauren; Carlson, Stephan P.This bulletin is for youth interested in learning about Minnesota's diverse wildlife.
