Abstract Understanding the environmental factors that influence tree species composition is essential for successful management of biodiversity and sustainable use community forest resources. This study aims to assess distribution in deciduous Ban Mae Chiang Rai Lum Community Forest Northern Thailand analyze on forest. We conducted a stratified systematic sampling forest’s total area 3925 ha, twenty-five 0.16 ha survey plots were established three different stands forests estimate...
Evaluating potential (PES) and realized (RES) ecosystem services can significantly improve the clarity understanding of sustainable natural resource management practices. This study determined spatial distribution indices assessed economic value both PES RES in Northern Thailand. The geographic intensity 17 ecological six land use categories (i.e., forests, agriculture, shrubland, urban land, water bodies, barren land) were estimated for unit values RES, by using Co$ting Nature Model. Our...
Dipterocarpus alatus plays a dominant role in the ecology and economics of riparian forests Thailand. Using MaxEnt modeling, we identified potentially suitable regions for D. along Chao Phraya River central The modeling procedure used 465 occurrence records 19 Worldclim environmental factors as well aspect, slope elevation data. results indicated that precipitation is key influential factor affecting distribution alatus. Highly this species included Nakhon Sawan, Uthai Thani, Loburi, Phra Si...
Improved understanding of relationships among plant traits, stand characteristics, and soil properties can provide insights into the regenerating tree communities commercial teak plantations. We investigated whether traits could be used to predict natural regeneration woody species in plantations with different conditions. Data were collected fifty 20 m × plots that established varying ages northern Thailand. analyzed differences properties, community-level functional sites. The RLQ analysis...

Green Space is very important for the conservation of biodiversity in urban areas Thailand.In case Bang Kachao, has been improved by development gardens city.The objective this study focused on an evaluation benefits big trees area at Kachao Space, Samutprakan province.Data was collected from six types tree habitat classified as road side, abandoned area, public private temple and park located across sub districts Kachao.Data were analyzed to evaluate monetary value direct indirect three...
This study investigated the environmental factors and tree species characteristics that are important for colonization of edge-interior gradients, later application to restoration edge-transition areas created by highland agriculture in deciduous forests Mae Khum Mee watershed, northwest Thailand. Three belt plots (100 × 10 m) were established at transition from forest edge interior two types (mixed [MDF] dipterocarp [DDF]), a total six plots. The composition canopy trees regenerated...
Urban trees provide numerous ecosystem services in cities such as pollution absorption and reduced urban heat island intensity, energy use, mental fatigue. Understanding tree species diversity can enhance planning management rapidly urbanizing areas. However, few studies have examined the effects of urbanization on Thailand. This study assessed large landscapes including 11 along 372 km Chao Phraya River Rim central Species diversity, importance value, distribution were evaluated each city....
Plant diversity is important for sustainable development, particularly in watershed areas. This study explored tree population and a lower montane forest (LMF). A 16-ha permanent plot was established LMF at Huai Kogma sub-watershed, northern Thailand. All trees with diameter breast height ≥ 2 cm were tagged, measured, identified, their coordinates mapped. The results showed that 220 species 139 genera from 63 plant families found. dominant based on numbers density Fagaceae, Lauraceae,...
Abstract The interplay between long‐term environmental variability and litterfall is complex through this study, we quantified the response of peak leaf, flower, fruit production to such in a lower montane evergreen forest located Doi Suthep‐Pui National Park, Thailand. We observed seasonality accumulation with leaf flower litterfalls occurring mostly during cool hot dry seasons, while occurs wet season. Probable associations drivers (barometric pressure, temperature, relative humidity,...
Improved knowledge of the environmental factors affecting natural regeneration tree species in limestone forest is urgently required for conservation. We examined and characteristics that are important colonization diverse stands growing on a hill northern Thailand. Our analysis estimated relative influence structure traits species. established sixty-four <TEX>$100-m^2$</TEX> plots four hill. determined composition canopy trees, regenerating seedlings, saplings relation to physical...

Biodiversitas 21: 4663-4670. plays a dominant role both ecologically and economically We analyzed potentially suitable areas H. zone Chao Phraya River using software MaxEnt. Modeling included 164 occurrence records along with 19 climate-related variables, slope, aspect, elevation. Precipitation was key climatic variable influencing distribution...
The relationships between plant traits and soil properties in forest edges can provide insights into tree species recovery edge habitats. In this study, we investigated the functional conditions related to at of two seasonally dry forests, a mixed deciduous (MDF) dipterocarp (DDF) northern Thailand. We analyzed differences trait diversity community-level values forests performed RLQ analysis assess associations among abundance, traits, variables. found that MDF site had greater was dominated...

This study aims to compare the yield and quality of Teak wood from a Forest Industry Organization (FIO) plantation private teak (PTP) in Thailand provide guidelines for sustainable utilization wood. To quantify yields, we employed randomized design at two locations (FIO PTP), determined volumetric proportions, yields milled properties. We found that whole lumber differed significantly (p≤0.05) between locations, although sheets did not differ (p>0.05). While more was produced FIO than...

Nutrient recycling is one of the most important services that supports other processes in ecosystems. Changing litterfall patterns induced by climate change can cause imbalances nutrient availability. In this study, we reported long-term (28-year) interplay between environmental factors and variability among fractions (leaves, flowers, fruit) a tropical dry forest located Kanchanaburi, Thailand. A litter trap dataset was collected analyzed lagged generalized additive models. Strong...
Acanthomyrmex Emery, 1893 is a small myrmicine genus of the tribe Crematogastrini. Seventeen species have been recorded from Southeast Asia. Herein, two new Thailand (Acanthomyrmexmalikulisp. n. and Acanthomyrmexmizunoisp. n.) are added to this genus. Both belong Acanthomyrmexluciolae group. Acanthomyrmexmalikuli was collected hard dead wood on forest floor, while A.mizunoi nested in soil.
