Abstract: ABSTRACT.-Tourist activities, especially those related to skiing, have been promoted in the central Spanish Pyrenees since the 1950s. Using a 30-year dataset extending back to before the development of most ski resorts in the Pyrenees, we analysed the effects of ski resort development on the human population (change in the number of inhabitants, demographic structure and structure of the working sector) and the primary production activities of the area (number of farms and livestock). Spatial differences that … Show more

“…The answer to these questions will be an essential factor in order to carry out a suitable sustainable future planning in the Pyrenees, not only of the ski industry but also of the current development model of this region. Even though the ski industry has led to an uneven regional development and economic impact as well as environmental impacts due to the marginalization of the primary sector (Lasanta et al, 2007(Lasanta et al, , 2007b, this region is highly dependent on winter tourism industry being their residents well aware that climate change is presented as a future threat to snow availability and to future development of winter tourism related activities .…”

“…Con unos 11 millones de visitantes al año repartidos en las más de 50 estaciones de esquí de fondo y alpino españolas, francesas y andorranas, el sector del turismo de nieve, ya sea de forma directa o indirecta, actúa como principal actividad económica y de desarrollo para gran parte de las comarcas y regiones pirenaicas que en gran medida se sustentan y dependen de este sector 1 . En el caso del Pirineo, el impacto socioeconómico de las estaciones de esquí ha sido desigual, a la vez que ha conllevado unos impactos ambientales asociados al abandono del sector primario y una transición hacia una económica fuertemente dependiente del turismo de esquí principalmente en las proximidades de las estaciones (Lasanta et al, 2007b).…”
