  This study presents an application of the open-ended approach to estimate the ecotourism value of Javaherdeh Village in Mazandaran province. The Two-stage Heckman Method was used to analysis data for separating the factors affecting the existence of willingness to pay (WTP) of visitors and factors affecting the amount of willingness to pay for the Javaherdeh village. Therefore, using data from the pre-test questionnaires and Mitchell and Carson approach, 220 visitors were determined as the study sample. Requested data set were obtained by completing questionnaires and interviewing with individuals who visited the mentioned village in spring 2015. The results showed that the variables including satisfaction with welfare and recreational facilities, household monthly income, and gender were statistically significant at 1% level; variable of age was statistically significant at 10% level affecting on the amount of willingness to pay only; While overnight staying experience was statistically significant at 10% level and variables including the number of annual visits and visitors attitude index were statistically significant at 1% level in the first stage (existence of WTP) and also in the second stage (amount of WTP). The expected willingness to pay of each household for each visit was estimated equivalent to 37,613 Rials. Manuscript profile

  In the beginning of third millennium A.D, there are some people and clans living in our ancient country who are mostly dependent on their natural environment and have little tendency to leave it, they live either in the borders of dry deserts, or in mountains, mountainsides and forests. These people are loyal to their ancestors heritage, and respect the ceremonies, folklore and religions beliefs of them . But, in the course of time, some manifestation of modern civilization has been appeared among them, and they will soon forget whatever obtained from generation to generation, or those beliefs will disappear little by little. And, this is the coercion of history , and maybe the issue of GLOBAL VILLAGE, proposed by marshal mc luhan turns into reality. The galesh are one of the native people of Iran who have already kept most of their ancient ceremonies and beliefs, but their simple life is being quickly developed in the recent decades, and there is the fear that in the near future they will forget their beliefs. The author intends to briefly bring up the Galesh and specifications of their life, converse with them and retell what they remember from their ancestors. Therefore, this is rather a field (practical) research than a library one.   Manuscript profile

  Severe variations of exploitation structure in rangeland are caused to shakeup of plants vegetation in which invasion of poisonous plants in bare areas is a symbol of this deviation. Inkling of the rangeland condition’s values is brought about accurate decision to exploitation management in the rangeland. In order to investigating of this diversity processes, rangelands of Javaherdeh (Ramsar) under three treatments, include long term exclosure (30 years), short term exclosure (7 years), and grazing area, were selected. Collecting of species was done by patrolling in the sites and recognition of plants was also done by reliable references. Some plots are laid fortuitously down in order to determine the rangeland trend and condition which are settled by Trend Balance and six-factor methods. With a view to determine the utilision rate of poisonous plants by animal, Bit-count method was employed. Results showed that there are 133 species from 19 families and 56 genera in the study area. There are also 39 toxic plants in good (long-term exclosure), fair (7 years exclosure), and poor conditions (grazing area). 46 species are used by animal that 15 species of them were venomous plants. The study of rangeland condition trends, therefore, is shown that because of overgrazing or long term grazing, invader species, include unpalatable and toxic plants, occupy the land where palatable-endemic species depopulate it. Some poisonous species, however, exist in their own ecologic niches that occupy the bare land when there is not any palatable species. Manuscript profile
