This volume is the third in a series of case studies of population, development, and environment interactions. In the style of the others, it is divided into two parts.
Taken together, the models deal with population growth by education, migration between the Yucatan and other parts of Mexico and within the peninsula itself, tourism, the quality of beaches, the congestion of historical sites, the fisheries of the Yucatan coast, and land use.
The study was conducted in collaboration with scientists from IIASA and CINVESTAV (Unidad Mérida). The project received partial funding from the UNFPA (United Nations Population Fund), and lasted only from January 1996 to July 1996 due to the cancellation of funding by the UNFPA.
