Abstract (sommario):

Sembalun tourism area has become one of the leading tourism destination in Lombok island. Since the launch of Sembalun7Summits program, the number of tourist coming to Sembalun to experience the sensation of venturing through the beautiful landscapes has increased significantly. This has opened a wide opportunity for this agricultural village to increase its income from tourism. This activity aimed to provide the knowledge for guards of entry posts to hiking trails to help them manage and record visitor data so that they can keep track of entry charges collected from visitors. Better records of entry charges and visitors will enable the guards to manage the income they have generated in order to map the expenses needed to provide better service for visitors. These services include safety measures for visitors and improved income for not only the guards in the entry posts but also villagers in surrounding areas. The training was participated by 25 post guards from ten hiking posts and five members of the Sembalun Foundation organization which is the partner of this community development activity. After the training, the post guards made an agreement to start using the Google Form designed by our team to be used as a means to record visitor data. This form will be provided in each hiking post’s social media account where visitors can schedule and register their hiking trip.

Abstract (sommario):

Purpose: determination of objective and subjective characteristics of students’ with different properties of nervous system fear of heights. Material: In the research 10 students of 18-19 years old age, who did not practice sports, participated. The students fulfilled one exercises: passing suspended ferriage in hiking. This exercise gives subjective perception of height and creates artificial conditions for appearing of fear. He exercise was fulfilled under all required safety measures and supervised by experienced instructor. Cluster and discriminant analysis were used. Results: we have shown that is possible to divide people into groups by indicators of functional changes in extreme situation in combination with indicators of psycho-physiological potentials and properties of nervous system. We have found that the most significant indicators for distribution of students into groups by individual typological properties are speed and accuracy of passing of psycho-physiological tests with different modes of signals’ supply as well as functional changes before exercise of extreme character. Conclusions: It was determined that students with strong type of nervous system had confidently less heart beats rate before fulfillment of extreme exercise than the students with weak type of nervous system. Subjective feeling of fear before fulfillment of extreme exercise was also confidently less in representatives of strong type of nervous system.

Abstract (sommario):

Abstract Hazards management is essential in enhancing visitor safety assurance. Gunung Rinjani National Park is strongly associated with a variety of physical, and biological hazards. In an effort to become a world-class hiking trail, various stakeholders have shown increased engagement, yet, their coordination, collaboration and cooperation still need to be explored. Findings were derived from in-depth interviews and Focus Group Discussions with key stakeholders that were directly involved in managing disaster comprising of public, private and third sector hazard-related institutions, including local tourism actors to map their role and interrelationship. The findings revealed that hazard management has been considered in GRNP management. As many as 35 stakeholders have contributed to the risk management of Gunung Rinjani National Park. While all stakeholders were aware of the potential hazards, risk awareness varied. Weak integration mechanisms have been identified among stakeholders, with the principal underlying cause the lack of a coordinated Standard Operating Procedure. Most stakeholders acted only in accordance with their institutional SOPs as response phase was the most commonly observed actions. In addition, implementation of training has often proved to be non-sustainable. This research concluded that each stakeholder be responsible and transparent to ensure collaborative ecotourism hazards mitigation and risk reduction measures.

Abstract (sommario):

Forest ecosystems are vital for sustainable development and human well-being globally and in Europe. Sustainably managed forests are fundamental in combating natural disasters and providing multiple important goods and services for humans and the environment. However, with increasing climate change and its associated effects, forests have become severely and regularly prone to fires. This is seriously threatening forest protection, human safety, the economy, and biodiversity. In this context, understanding future forest fire risks, susceptibility, hazards, and fire prevention is essentially needed. This study thus examines the forest fire risks and hazards in Leiria National Forest (Mata Nacional de Leiria), Portugal using the 2017 forest fire as a benchmark. With the adoption of GIS and remote sensing techniques and data, vegetation type (NDMI), human factors (roads and settlement proximity), and terrain characteristics (slope and aspect) were assessed to map fire risk. Through multi-criteria analysis, these data were integrated to generate a forest fire risk index. Results demonstrate that about 46% of the study area is within high-risk and risky zones, 50% is considered moderate-risk fire zones and 3% is classified as low and risk-free zones. Sensitivity analysis indicated that high-risk areas are mostly low moisture coniferous fuel types while risk-free areas are high moisture deciduous fuel types. Further, it was established that the observed high-risk and risky zones are attributed mostly to proximity to settlements and roads and little topographical influence. The study thus suggests an increased future forest fire risk under the prevailing conditions and a hiking potential of increased burnt areas. We thus proposed effective proactive measures and adaptive management approaches to prevent and mitigate the devastating impacts of forest fires within the study location.

Abstract (sommario):

To study how wildlife perceive recreating humans, we studied the habitat selection of a human commensalist, the collared peccary (Pecari tajacu (Linnaeus, 1758)). We measured peccary activity patterns in an area of high human activity (Tumamoc Hill Desert Laboratory in Tucson, Arizona, USA) using a landscape-of-fear analysis. We examined whether the perception of risk from human activity interacted with the chemical (tannin) and mechanical (thorns) antipredator mechanisms of local plant species. The peccaries avoided food stations near a hiking trail. The population foraged less near houses, i.e., moderate human activity, than in the perceived safety of a small wadi. Plant defence treatments impacted the harvesting of food only in the safe zone, suggesting that risk trumps food selectivity. The strong effect of the hiking trail on habitat selection in this disturbance-loving species is an indicator of a much larger impact on sensitive species in conservation areas.

Abstract (sommario):

Escape routes keep firefighters safe by providing efficient evacuation pathways from the fire line to safety zones. Effectively utilizing escape routes requires a precise understanding of how much time it will take firefighters to traverse them. To improve this understanding, we collected GPS-tracked travel rate data from US Interagency Hotshot “Type 1” Crews during training in 2019. Firefighters were tracked while hiking, carrying standard loads (e.g., packs, tools, etc.) along trails with a precisely-measured terrain slope derived from airborne lidar. The effects of the slope on the instantaneous travel rate were assessed by three models generated using non-linear quantile regression, representing low (bottom third), moderate (middle third), and high (upper third) rates of travel, which were validated using k-fold cross-validation. The models peak at about a −3° (downhill) slope, similar to previous slope-dependent travel rate functions. The moderate firefighter travel rate model mostly predicts faster movement than previous slope-dependent travel rate functions, suggesting that firefighters generally move faster than non-firefighting personnel while hiking. Steepness was also found to have a smaller effect on firefighter travel rates than previously predicted. The travel rate functions produced by this study provide guidelines for firefighter escape route travel rates and allow for more accurate and flexible wildland firefighting safety planning.

"Mountain Hiking: Prolonged Eccentric Muscle Contraction during Simulated Downhill Walking Perturbs Sensorimotor Control Loops Needed for Safe Dynamic Foot–Ground Interactions".

Abstract (sommario):

Safe mountain hiking requires precise control of dynamic foot–ground interactions. In addition to vision and vestibular afferents, limb proprioception, sensorimotor control loops, and reflex responses are used to adapt to the specific nature of the ground contact. Diminished leg dexterity and balance during downhill walking is usually attributed to fatigue. We investigated the supplementary hypothesis that the eccentric contractions inherent to downhill walking can also disrupt muscle proprioception, as well as the sensorimotor control loops and reflex responses that depend on it. In this study, we measured leg dexterity (LD), anterior–posterior (AP) and medio–lateral (ML) bipedal balance, and maximal voluntary leg extension strength in young and healthy participants before and after 30 min of simulated downhill walking at a natural pace on a treadmill at a 20° decline. Post–pre comparisons of LD (p < 0.001) and AP balance (p = 0.001) revealed significant reductions in dynamic foot–ground interactions after eccentric exercise without an accompanying reduction in leg extension strength. We conclude that eccentric contractions during downhill walking can disrupt the control of dynamic foot–ground interactions independently of fatigue. We speculate that mountaineering safety could be improved by increasing conscious attention to compensate for unadjusted proprioception weighting, especially in the descent.

Abstract (sommario):

Tourism is one of economic activity that has been most affected by restrictions, connected with the COVID-19 pandemic, which in 2020–2021 has become the main factor in shaping the demand for the tourist product. As a result of quarantine restrictions, the number of tourists and the structure of the tourist flow have changed. The pandemic has impact on recreational activities in the Southern Baikal region (Slyudyansky district of the Irkutsk region) which is the study area. During the field research in the summer (beach and hiking) and winter (mountain skiing) tourist seasons sociological studies (questionnaires and interviews) of recreants were carried out. The tourist geographical spread was defined, as well as the attitude to the social and natural conditions of the territory was found such as safety, tourist infrastructure development, availability of recreational services and products, climate, landscapes beauty, etc. During the pandemic, the geographical spread of tourists narrowed mainly to the Irkutsk-Cheremkhovo agglomeration, foreign tourists practically didn’t come. However, closed borders and domestic tourism subsidization drawn attention to holidays on Baikal for tourists from the western part of Russia, who had before chosen recreation abroad and during the pandemic didn’t cancel trips, but to change the geography of their holidays. Besides air travel, a significant proportion of tourists used personal cars to arrive at their holiday destination. It was established that the pandemic the tourist age ratios has changed in the rejuvenation direction. In the course of the opinion poll, tourists noted the high landscape aesthetic appeal of recreation areas, but the recreational infrastructure, in their opinion, isn’t sufficiently prepared for quality recreation. The results will be forwarded to the Slyudyansky district administration for adjusting measures related to the development of recreational infrastructure.

Mountain hiking becomes one of the major outdoor activies for the elderly in Taiwan. But, little research to date has attempted to assess the safety of mountain hiking. The purpose of this research was to investigate the safety knowledge, risk cognition and preventive measures of mountain hiking for elderly people. The survey covered popular mountain hiking areas in Taiwan, and data were collected from 270 valid questionnaires dated from March 10 to April 17 in 2011. All statistics was analyzed by following methods: descriptive statistic and two-way ANOVA. The results indicated most of elderly people are equipped with well safety knowledge, risk cognition and preventive measures of mountain hiking. Meanwhile, chronic disease and accident groups turned to significant differences for risk cognition of mountain hiking, but no significant differences for safety knowledge and preventive measures. The results of this study would explain safety knowledge, risk cognition and preventive measures of mountain hiking for elderly people and would also provide information and suggestions for travel operators to promotion and education.

Abstract (sommario):

The risk of fire in urban forests is high due to housing and living infrastructure adjacent to the forest, resulting in large human and property damage and high frequency of occurrence. It is very important to identify the forest fire environment and potential risk factors for each city in order to manage the forest fire risk in the cities adjacent to the forest. In this study, urban forest fire management measures were suggested by conducting a survey on the causes of forest fires and the entire adjacent forests in Nowon-gu, which has the most urban-forest adjacent areas in terms of administrative districts among Seoul, which has the highest population density in Korea. The forest fire investigation has been conducted for the last 5 years, and in addition to analyzing the forest, topography, and meteorological environment, analysis of fire-vulnerable areas in the event of a forest fire in downtown Seoul was conducted. Eight action plans were presented by dividing the actionable forest fire management into prevention, preparation, and response stages for areas adjacent to forests and areas vulnerable to forest fire risk. First, in prevention, fuel management that can reduce the risk of forest fires, map production and risk reduction management for temples in the forest, and selection of appropriate locations to install forest fire long-distance around monitoring cameras and drone autonomous monitoring stations were suggested. Second, in the preparation stage, a fuel blocking method was presented to establish a safe zone for hiking trails, prepare a mountaineering safety map for forest fire evacuation, and prevent the spread of residential fires in forest interface area. Third, in the response stage, the installation of a multi-purpose outdoor fire hydrant for suppression of forest fires and house fires adjacent to the forest, the activities of forest fire extinguishing vehicles and marking of the entry area, and the establishment of an urban forest disaster integrated control system were suggested.
