Therefore, we used a combination of Churchill and Rossiter’s scale development frameworks to create the Ecotourist Identification Scale (EIS) as a tool for identifying ecotourists based on these three criteria. We split a sample of 786 U.S. travellers in half to perform a Principal Components Analysis for scale purification on one half followed by a Confirmatory Factor Analysis on the other. Results of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis indicated strong construct reliability for each component of the EIS based on factor loadings above 0.50, reliability coefficients exceeding 0.70, and Average Variance Explained above 50%. Furthermore, we employed Structural Equation Modeling to explore which aspects of ecotourism’s three tenets influence intention to engage in ecotourism by testing the relationship between EIS scale components and ecotourism intention. Results indicate interest in nature and environmental sustainability are significantly related to ecotourism intention while interest in education, socio-cultural sustainability, and economic sustainability are not, indicating discrepancies between the academic definition of ecotourism and the factors driving tourists to engage in ecotourism.","PeriodicalId":39714,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecotourism","volume":"21 1","pages":"99 - 120"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2021-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14724049.2021.1919126","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45913792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These resources have a great potential contribution to the development of ecotourism. However, so far there have been no well-identified and mapped potential ecotourism sites. This study is aimed to identify potential ecotourism sites using a combination of Geographic Information System and Analysis Hierarchy Process method. In this paper, an integrated geospatial baseline data, such as biophysical features, wildlife, topography, climate, culture, and accessibility, were considered as main independent factors. Eleven criteria were designed based on 22 discussions with experts, as well as literatures, intensive field surveys, satellite imageries, and exiting thematic maps. The overall analysis result indicates that 27.63% of the area was highly suitable, 35.49% moderately suitable, 26.22% marginally suitable, and 10.66% not suitable. Most of the highly suitable areas lie in the western, north western, and some parts of the south eastern of the park. But, the moderately suitable areas are found in the central and southern parts of the park. Model area under the curve in the training data is 86.15%. Therefore, the output of this study can use as a basis for evaluating the suitability ecotourism development by governmental policy makers.","PeriodicalId":39714,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecotourism","volume":"20 1","pages":"341 - 370"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2021-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14724049.2021.1897599","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45941446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It will provide a more sustainable development perspective as a potential mechanism to address socio-economic inequalities, in particular for regional and rural areas. This research note describes Namibia's tourism economy and tourism products noting the country's commitment to sustainable tourism. It then puts forward the notion that the advancement of geotourism presents a sustainable development opportunity based on Namibia's rich and diverse geological assets and landscapes. Case studies are presented of two current geotourism attractions, the /Ai/Ais-Richtersveld Transfrontier Park and Hoba Meteorite National Monument. The paper concludes by arguing that geotourism can be a valuable sustainable development vehicle for Namibia through the generation of economic revenue, community wellbeing, and conservation.","PeriodicalId":39714,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecotourism","volume":"20 1","pages":"371 - 385"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2021-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14724049.2021.1910699","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48295654","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bibliographic data were obtained from Scopus and analysed using ‘bibliometrix’ tool. The findings reveal that JE has made significant progress in terms of publications and citations and its articles are cited by the premier journal in tourism.

In this article, we explore the local production of outdoor activities, by conceptualizing small-scale nature-based tours as a social practice. The study is based on empirical research, taking as a case study the development of the Marble Caves tour, an iconic destination in Northern Patagonia, Chile. The touring practice is analyzed based on the interplay of its material components, required competences and symbolic meanings. Our findings demonstrate that the persistence of the practice is particularly reliant on the competences of the tour operators, and on the abiotic nature of the tourist attraction. Fostering tour guide competences therefore contributes to the sustainability and performance of the practice. We contend that tourism policy interventions that aim to harmonize local development and environmental protection need to carefully analyze and take into account existing social practices.","PeriodicalId":39714,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecotourism","volume":"21 1","pages":"1 - 17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2021-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14724049.2021.1913176","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48566403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a competitive global market which requires the supply of available tourism to be customized, mycological tourism helps to combat seasonality and contributes towards the economic development of rural areas, a priority goal for policymakers and stakeholders alike. In an effort to help provide more precise tourism marketing management, the present study aims to segment mycotourists based on their motivations. The factor-clustering method identifies ‘thrill-seekers’ as those looking for distraction and to ‘get away from it all’ and whose mycotourism is motivated by the search for adventure, while ‘leisure-seekers’ are tourists attracted by nostalgia and driven by childhood memories. The study was carried out in the region of Castilla y León (Spain), one of the most highly developed mycological regions in the Iberian Peninsula.","PeriodicalId":39714,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecotourism","volume":"20 1","pages":"311 - 340"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2021-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14724049.2021.1892123","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46432281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, despite this relationship, it was found that all parties hold positive opinions concerning the likely effects of facility-provided educational services on tourists and the local community.
