Explaining human settlement patterns in a recreational lake district: Vilas County,Wisconsin, USA 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Lakeshore development in Vilas County, northern Wisconsin (USA) is heterogeneous, ranging from lakes that are surrounded by
homes and commercial establishments to lakes that have no buildings on their shorelines. Development in this recreational
area has increased, and since the 1960s over half of new homes have been built on the lakeshore. We examined building density
around lakes in relationship to 11 variables, including in-lake, shoreline, and social characteristics. Buildings in many
parts of northern Wisconsin tend to be concentrated around shorelines; in Vilas County 61% of all medium-sized buildings (our
proxy for residential development) on private land were ≤100 m of a lake. The probability of development on a lake was largely
related to lake surface area, with larger, more accessible lakes showing a higher probability of development. Building density
along shorelines varied with travel cost, lake surface area, presence of wetlands, and extent of public land ownership. Building
density was greater on larger, more accessible lakes that were surrounded by forest (as opposed to wetlands) and public lands.
Gaining a more precise understanding of human settlement patterns can help direct planning and resource protection efforts
to lakes most likely to experience future development. 相似文献
