Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Many European northern periphery (NP) communities are likely to experience increased and complex environmental, social and economic impacts of tourism in the near future. Therefore, approaches that see tourism as included in complex socio-ecological systems are critical for identifying and assessing sustainability indicators in the NP specifically. This study aims to develop and assess systemic sustainability indicators for tourism in Vatnajökull National Park (VNP), Iceland, and adjacent communities, based on public participation, and to discuss the usefulness of the approach in NP tourism. Interviews with tourism stakeholders in VNP identified eighteen sustainability indicators for VNP. The interconnectedness of these indicators and their role within the system were analyzed by applying a systemic indicator method. The results show five indicators that are currently most influential for the tourism system in VNP and to be the major driving forces for local tourism development: ‘destination attractiveness’, ‘economic seasonality’, ‘social carrying capacity’, ‘societal seasonality’ and ‘local economy’. The smallest change in any of these indicators has major effects on other indicators. Moreover, these five indicators are more important for the sustainability of the community than any external factors. This study concludes that a systemic approach to sustainability indicators can help identify important sustainability issues and is thus especially useful in NP communities where tourism is not a prioritized development path in policies, despite being identified as economically significant. Keywords: sustainability indicator, tourism, systems analysis, northern periphery, stakeholder involvement, public participation. Participation des parties prenantes à l'élaboration d'indicateurs de durabilité pour un système touristique européen de la périphérie nord Résumé De nombreuses communautés de la périphérie du nord européenne (PN) devraient subir dans un proche avenir l'augmentation et la complexité des impacts environnementaux, sociaux et économiques du tourisme. Ainsi, les approches qui considèrent le tourisme comme faisant partie de systèmes socio-écologiques complexes sont essentielles pour identifier et évaluer les indicateurs de viabilité dans la PN en particulier. Cette étude vise à développer et à évaluer des indicateurs systémiques de durabilité pour le tourisme dans le parc national de Vatnajökull (VNP), en Islande et dans les communautés adjacentes, sur la base de la participation du public ainsi qu' à discuter de l'utilité de l'approche en tourisme du NP. Les entretiens avec les acteurs du tourisme du PNV ont identifié 18 indicateurs de durabilité pour le PNV. L'interconnexion de ces indicateurs et leur rôle au sein du système ont été analysés en appliquant une méthode d'indicateur systémique. Les résultats montrent que cinq indicateurs sont actuellement les plus influents pour le système de tourisme dans le PNV et constituent les principaux moteurs du développement du tourisme local: 'attrait des destinations', 'saisonnalité économique', 'capacité de charge sociale', 'saisonnalité sociétale' et 'l'économie locale'. Le moindre changement dans l’un de ces indicateurs a des effets majeurs sur les autres indicateurs. De plus, ces cinq indicateurs sont plus importants pour la viabilité de la communauté que tout facteur externe. Cette étude conclut qu'une approche systémique des indicateurs de viabilité peut aider à identifier d'importants problèmes de durabilité et est donc particulièrement utile dans les communautés de PN où le tourisme n'est pas un axe de développement prioritaire dans les politiques, bien qu'il soit considéré comme économiquement significatif.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
