Water Quality Is a Poor Predictor of Recreational Hotspots in England

Association of good/high overall water status and use of cultural ecosystem services for the eight River Basin Districts.
The Odds Ratio (OR) of each River Basin District measures the likelihood that actual visits take place in sites characterized by good/high overall water status compared to random locations selected under a null model accounting for demand and substitutability (Table 2). OR exhibits a statistically significant positive (negative) association (i.e. visits in good/high overall water status sites are more (less) common than random; solid colours) if the 90% confidence interval is completely above (below) the line OR = 1. The robustness of the results is tested by comparing null models, including a null model without weighting. See Fig 2 for River Basin Districts acronyms.
