Community Spatial and Socioeconomic Linkages Report

This is a report MOP funded to understand our current ability to spatially characterize and value a few key human uses. The only decent quantitative information are commercial fishing landings/value from the Division of Marine Fisheries. Data for the other uses are largely qualitative or based on a few statewide or region wide studies that do not allow us to have the resolution we would like. This document is a starting point for our more involved human use characterization/valuation that we are about to begin with another team. Nick Napoli has a geodatabase that contains all of the data/maps in this document.
