Description:"This report presents the findings of a survey initiative conducted to gauge the social values of ecosystem services of the visitors, seasonal residents, and permanent residents of the Mission-Aransas National Estuarine Research Reserve (Reserve). Located 30 miles northeast of Corpus Christi, the Reserve is utilized by multiple user-groups including commercial entities, non-profit institutions, local residents, visitors, students and teachers. In order to gauge the perceived values of ecosystem services these user groups hold for the site, a survey instrument was designed in collaboration with the management staff of the Reserve to analyze the knowledge, attitudes, and preferences of respondents. Components of the survey instrument addressed a range of topics such as observed changes in abundance for key Reserve wildlife and prioritization of management goals, among others"--Executive Summary.
