“…Not only hotels and restaurants suffered, but also rental facilities and souvenir shops were affected, as well as secondary enterprises such as farmers, suppliers, and transporters. Findings suggest that while cities and major tourist destinations may suffer huge financial losses in absolute terms, small rural communities experience more significant impacts in relative terms in a disaster (Zeng, Carter and DeLacy, 2005), as a large proportion of the population has a vested interest in the health of the local tourism industry. As in Arugam Bay, cataclysmic events can cause an economic downturn that is nearly as harmful to a destination's tourism sustainability as the initial disaster (Sonmez, Yiorgos and Tarlow, 1999).…”

“…The event is recognised as episodic and unlikely to recur. In addition, in spite of its vulnerability to external events, the tourism industry is resilient (Zeng, Carter and DeLacy, 2005), and the sector recovers as the public's memories of the event fade.…”

“…The attacks of 11 September 2001 in New York and Washington, DC, had the most widespread and long-lasting consequences. Afterwards, most analysts believed that tourism would start to recover in the United States by the second half of 2002 and in Europe by 2003 (Zeng, Carter and DeLacy, 2005). However, international arrivals had not returned to normal by the end of 2003, with an average monthly loss of 15-20 per cent (Zeng, Carter and DeLacy, 2005).…”

However, international arrivals had not returned to normal by the end of 2003, with an average monthly loss of 15-20 per cent (Zeng, Carter and DeLacy, 2005). International tourism arrivals fell by 1.2 per cent again in 2003 when three negative factors came together: the Iraq conflict; severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS); and a persistently weak economy (World Tourism Organization, 2004;Sonmez, Yiorgos and Tarlow, 1999).…”

“…For crises involving infrastructure destruction, a key aspect is to have in place a reconstruction strategy (Zeng, Carter and DeLacy, 2005) and support. Once the debris clean-up operation was under way, the second phase of the immediate relief strategy was initiated: support to entrepreneurs to allow them to restart their businesses.…”

Background: In Spring 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic sent universities into emergency remote education. The pandemic has been disruptive but offers the opportunity to learn about ways to support students in other situations where abrupt changes to teaching and learning are necessary.Purpose/Hypothesis: We described the responses of engineering and computer science students to a series of prompts about their experiences with remote learning. Design/Method: Data about students' remote learning experiences were collected from undergraduate engineering and computer science students at four different universities through an end-of-semester survey. Descriptive statistics were calculated, and qualitative responses were analyzed using qualitative content analysis through the lenses of master narrative theory and sociocultural theory. Results: Student responses revealed how their individual circumstances combined to reduce motivation, create home environments detrimental to completing schoolwork, and increase stress. Many students described the negative impacts of remote learning, but some students found positive aspects of the situation. The majority of students did not indicate a change in their desire or plans to pursue engineering or computer science majors.Conclusions: There was wide variation in how students experienced the disruption to university learning during Spring 2020. Implications of this paper can help not only in cases where emergency remote learning is needed in the future but also as universities seek to return to "normal" operations in 2022 and beyond.

The influence of the COVID‐19 pandemic on spring turkey hunting

et al. 2022

The rapid rise of COVID-19 and the governmental response to slow the spread of the pandemic occurred prior to, or during, the opening of the spring wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) hunting seasons (Mar to May 2020) in the United States. The response of fish and wildlife agencies to the pandemic varied throughout the United States during the spring turkey season. The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission (NGPC) suspended the sale of non-resident, spring turkey hunting permits on 30 March 2020 in a proactive effort to minimize the spread of COVID-19. In this study, we evaluated the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic affected the spring turkey permit sales and harvest in Nebraska, USA. We combined information from NGPC's electronic licensing system, responses from 2017-2019 spring turkey hunter surveys (pre-pandemic), and responses from the 2020 (during the pandemic) spring turkey hunter survey, which included additional questions about the influence of COVID-19 on respondents' hunting experiences.There was an increase in the number of resident hunters (23%) and resident permits sold (26%) and a decrease in the number of non-resident hunters (−88%) and non-resident permits sold (−89%) in 2020 as compared to the 3 years prior. Further, nonresidents, more so than Nebraska residents, claimed that the COVID-19 pandemic affected their spring turkey hunting in their precautions taken, overall satisfaction, pre-season planning for the spring turkey season, and plans made prior to the outbreak. Wildlife agencies should prepare for the potential
