Randomized trial assesses recreational service functions in river corridors, indicating significant resource use disparities.

To evaluate the spatial relationship and coordination between recreational capacity and actual usage in river corridors.
Constructed a dual-dimensional evaluation framework based on 'Potential Capacity−Usage Level'.
Utilized user-generated trajectory data and population distribution to quantify recreational usage levels.
Employed coupling coordination degree model and cluster analysis to evaluate spatial characteristics and patterns.
Higher recreational service potential and usage levels found in riparian zones compared to distant areas.
About 90% of the area shows low coupling coordination states, with significant lagging in usage levels.
Usage levels lag behind potential capacity, particularly in regions farther from river channels.

Yang et al. (2026) studied this question.
