At Chandos Lake, Ontario, investigations focused upon recreational site use patterns, perceptions, and requirements of people. A model for on-going planning was established that satisfied user requirements while minimizing long-term adverse impacts. At Buffalo Pound Lake, Saskatchewan, research included a detailed assessment of terrain, shoreline, and water conditions to establish management procedures. A combination of factors defined environmental planning units which formed the basis for developmental controls. These two projects in different settings exemplify the application of appropriate research to guide and substantiate landscape planning decisions. %U https://lj.uwpress.org/content/wplj/3/1/61.full.pdf
