Capabilities, Opportunities, and Motivation
Although there are many benefits to regular engagement in physical activity, adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities often do not engage in or near the recommended amount of physical activity. Barriers, such as lack of perceived capability, accessible environments, transportation, social support, and or knowledgeable support staff, may limit participation in physical activity. The present study used qualitative methods to explore …
Land-Use Change and the Structural Dynamics of Pinus kesiya in a Hill Evergreen Forest in Northern Thailand
This study describes changes occurring in a stand of Pinus kesiya in hill evergreen forest adjacent to a new settlement of tribal people in the Doi Inthanon mountain region of northern Thailand. These forests are increasingly experiencing chronic human impacts as tribal people are settled permanently at one site by government programs which encourage the cultivation of cash crops in place of opium. Results from age stand structure analysis sugges…
Origin and Geography of Cultivated Plants
Relationship of Temperature and Light Ring Formation at Subarctic Treeline and Implications for Climate Reconstruction
During the past 8 centuries, light rings (LRs) have occasionally formed in black spruce ( Picea mariana ) at treeline near Bush Lake, northern Quebec (L. Filion, S. Payette, L. Gauthier, and Y. Boutin, 1986, Quaternary Research 26, 272-279; A. Delwaide, L. Filion, and S. Fayette, 1991, Canadian Journal of Forest Research 21, 1828-1832). New analyses of climate data compiled during the period of overlapping tree-ring and instrumental records show …
Ecological Disturbance and Nature Tourism
Recent research in biogeography presents a convincing case that natural disturbance is not an aberrant influence but is common to many biological systems. Human changes in the environment can have surprising and profound effects on the impacts of natural disturbances. If recent efforts to use nature tourism to conserve natural resources are to succeed, such development must incorporate ecological insights into the interaction of natural disturban…
Structural Dynamics of a Southwestern Pine Forest under Chronic Human Influence
This paper examines the impact of several synchronous disturbances, both natural and anthropogenic, on the development of the Navajo ponderosa pine forest in the Chuska Mountains of the American Southwest during the past several hundred years. The specific objective is to determine the relative importance of historical factors, grazing, and fire regime alteration, as well as climate fluctuations, in changing the forest pattern. Evidence indicates…
