TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the knowledge embedded in WaterSim, an interactive simulation model of water supply and demand presented in an immersive decision theater, and found that stakeholders were fairly critical of the model's validity, relevance, and bias.

TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual model tested the leisure constraints negotiation process of outdoor recreation: motivation and the constraints to participate likely influenced by negotiation efforts, and the model tested used data collected from a random sample of Arizona residents through hierarchical confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling.

TL;DR: The results show that prior experience causes visitors to be more sensitive to depreciative behaviors, environmental impacts, and recreation conflict, which raises concerns over potential visitor displacement and deterioration of site conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the perceptions of water managers working at the science-policy interface in Phoenix and discuss the implications of their experiences for the development of an emerging boundary organization: the Decision Center for a Desert City.

TL;DR: The authors examined multidimensional perspectives on water scarcity across expert groups with different knowledge systems and found that residents exhibited a heightened tendency to blame other people for water scarcity, in addition to opposition toward stringent approaches such as water pricing.
