Small Disturbances

Dicamptodon tenebrosus is a species at risk in Canada and little is known about its ability to recover from disturbance at any scale. I tested whether stream-dwelling larvae are capable of recolonising regions subjected to small disturbances (25- to 40-m artificially depleted reaches) within 1 year, and compared the contributions of larval dispersal and adult reproduction to repopulation of barren areas. Numerical recovery from depletions in these stream sections was predicted to take 6-42 months. Only 4-5% of larvae in reaches adjacent to the depleted zones became colonists in 13 months. Colonisation occurred both by upstream and downstream movements and by larvae of different sizes. Local reproduction appears to be a more effective means of repopulating an area than larval immigration. In one reproductive event, an adult female could provide an equal or greater number of colonists than is supplied by neighbouring stream sections holding 200+ larvae.

Night tourism development comes up as an innovative strategy for tourism development in this current intense competition. There are four main elements in night tourism, namely economic, social, environmental, and night atmosphere. Berastagi is the most popular tourist destination in Karo Regency, Sumatera Utara, Indonesia, which already have night tourism destination but unfortunately undeveloped yet. Night tourism development in Berastagi must be with the local wisdom approach to maximize its benefit. Karonese as the majority ethnic of the local community in this area potential to be developed on its night tourism. This paper only analyzes the environmental and night atmosphere aspects in Berastagi’s night tourism, which based on local wisdom. Qualitative primary data from field observation and depth interview results have been analyzed by using the descriptive method. The study shows that involving local wisdom in developing the environment and night atmosphere can give the typical identity for the night tourism in Berastagi.Night Tourism
