Human Dimensions of Natural Resources is a reference to the social attitudes, processes, and behaviors related to how we maintain, protect, enhance, and use our natural resources.  Today’s natural resource managers are increasingly recognizing that natural resource management involves not only ecological processes, but also social processes and consequences as well.  In a very basic sense, Human Dimensions examines how the “science of human systems” or theory-based social science can aid in natural resource management.
