Ecological Capability for Tourism in Tonekabon Forests
Aims & Backgrounds: Identifying tourism development capacities is an undeniable priority in any country, especially in developing countries. There are various methods for determining such zones. Given the sensitivity of forest ecosystems to human interference, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the ecological potential of Tonekabon forests. Methodology: To evaluate the ecological potentia...
متن کاملNitrate Dynamics in Riparian Forests: Groundwater Studies
This study was conducted to assess the removal of groundwater nitrate (NOa-) in different soil drainage classes within three riparian forests located in Rhode Island. A solution of NOa-and a conservative tracer [either bromide (Br-) or chloride (CI-)] was applied in growing and the dormant seasons to trenches upgradient of wetland locations with hydric soils (poorly and very poorly drained soil...
متن کاملDenitrification in riparian forests receiving agricultural discharges
Riparian forests can remove large amounts of nitrate from the groundwater discharges of adjacent uphill croplands. We review the mechanisms that could account for NO3 removal. Denitrification is hypothesized to be important, but measurement problems limit the relevant field data. We used large chambers (1-20 mZ) and tunable-diode laser infrared spectrophotometry to measure nitrous oxide (NzO) e...
متن کاملKnowledge Systems in Agroforestry
Pacific Islands agroforestry has evolved into sustainable, diverse and productive a land use systems in many areas. We marvel at these systems, and the scientific world is trying to catch up with the traditional knowledge. At the same time, Pacific Islands farmers are abandoning their agroforestry systems in great numbers. It is mainly intensified agriculture for cash crop production that follo...
متن کاملNitrate Dynamics in Riparian Forests: Microbial Studies
While riparian forests have a demonstrated ability to remove nitrate (NO3-) moving from uplands before it enters streams, there is considerable uncertainty as to the mechanisms of NOr removal in these areas. We characterized spatial and temporal variation in denitrification enzyme activity (DEA), microbial biomass C and N content, soil respiration and potential net N mineralization and nitrific...
