Abstract:


Baltimore Ecosystem Study (BES) Household Telephone Survey is a core dataset. The survey was conducted in years 1999 (n = 801), 2000 (n = 813), 2003 (n = 1508), 2006 (n = 3312), and 2011 (n = 1636). In year 2011, five other Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA), were also sampled: Boston, MA; Miami, FL; Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN; Phoenix, AZ; and Los Angeles. The overall sample size for year 2011 was 9,840. The professional survey research firm, Hollander, Cohen, and McBride conducted the survey, asking respondents questions about their outdoor recreation activities, watershed knowledge, environmental behavior, neighborhood characteristics and quality of life, lawn maintenance, and demographic information. Questions can be addressed to Dexter H Locke (dexter.locke@gmail.com) and J Morgan Grove (jmgrove@gmail.com).
