هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى تقدير مستوى التلوث الجوي ببعض المعادن الثقيلة المحمولة بغبار المقالع المجاورة لموقع تحريج كفردبيل باستخدام أوراق الصنوبر البروتي كمؤشر حيوي. جُمعت عينات الغبار و الأوراق أواخر شهر تموز من العام 2016، و قُدرت كميات الرصاص و النيكل و الزنك باستخدام جهاز التحليل الطيفي بالامتصاص الذري بـ ppm على أساس الوزن الجاف للعينة. بلغت قيم المعادن المتراكمة في الأوراق كمتوسط كما يلي: (Pb= 45.57 ppm, Zn= 13.64 ppm, Ni= 7.64 ppm)، بينما كانت قيمها في غبار المصائد كالآتي (Pb= 66.1 ppm, Zn= 15.8 ppm, Ni= 19.6 ppm). بينت النتائج تلوث الموقع المدروس بالرصاص و النيكل أما الزنك فكان ضمن الحدود الطبيعية، و وجدت علاقة ارتباط قوية بين متوسط كمياتها في أوراق الصنوبر البروتي مع كمياتها في الغبار المتراكم في المصائد (r= 0.98)، كما فسَّرت معادلات الانحدار التباينات في تراكم المعادن المدروسة بالنسبة للغبار المتراكم على الأوراق كما يلي: 40% رصاص، 40% زنك و 20% نيكل. بالنتيجة يمكن اعتماد أوراق الصنوبر البروتي في الموقع المدروس كمؤشر حيوي لتلوث الهواء بالرصاص و الزنك و النيكل.
This study aimed to estimate the level of air pollution in some portable heavy metals in dust quarries by needles of Pinus brutia Ten. as biomonitor In site of Kfardabeel Stand- Jableh. The samples of dust and leaves were collected at the end of July in 2016, Atomic absorption spectrophotometer was used to determine the amounts of Lead, Zinc, Nickel (ppm, dry weight). The average of accumulated metals in the needles were estimated: (Pb= 45.57 ppm, Zn= 13.64 ppm, Ni= 7.64 ppm), while their amounts in the dust were done as following: (Pb= 66.1 ppm, Zn= 15.8 ppm, Ni= 19.6 ppm). The results showed that the studied site is polluted with Pb and Ni whereas Zn is in the natural range. a strong correlation between heavy metals amounts in the needles and their amounts in the trapped dust (r= 0.98) was detected, also regression equations have explained the variations in accumulation of studied metals in relation to the accumulated dust on needles as following: 40% Pb, 40% Zn, 20% Ni. Consequently results confirmed the possibility of detecting the atmospheric Pb, Zn, Ni pollution in the studied site using P. brutia Needles as a biomonitor.

This study aimed to estimate the height of the Pinus brutia trees in Kafardabeel
forested area- Jableh. Eight mathematical forms (Michailoff, Prodan, Petterson, Parabel,
Korsun, Logarithmic, Freese, Chapman-Richards) were used.
In 2015, the diamet
er of 330 trees at breast height (dbh) were measured, and only
heights of 165 of them were taken. Measurements were carried out in 15 sample plots all
over the study area to cover site variations in altitude, exhibition, gradient and density.
Data were split into two parts: 116 tree (70%) were used for model constrction, while the
remaining trees 49 tree (30%) were used for model validation.
The Results showed that, Parabel had the highest value for the Coefficient of
Determination (R²=0.53) and the lowest value of the relative accuracy (mx%) (17.665%).
That means it was the the best model to calculate tree height using diameter at breast
height. This model can help foresters in forest management planning for study area and
similar sites.
This research aimed to investigate the competitive situation and the growth
reduction as a result of competition for brutia pine trees grown in
Kafardabeel stand – Jableh. In the year 2015, 15 circle plots (with area size
of 400 m²) in the study a
rea planted in 1974 were sampled; all variations in
the site like tree density, aspect, slop, topography and site fertility were
covered. In the sample plot diameter at breast height of all trees and also
coordinates of central tree and coordinates of all compotators as well as
were measured. In order to study the competitive situation, two different
types of competition indices: position dependent (Heygi1, Heygi2, BAL) and
position independent (CCF) indices were used.
Estimation of tree and stand volume is a key calculation for productive forest
management (de Miguel et al., 2012). A precise estimation of tree volume needs to take the
variation in bole forms into account while calculation, this can be done by es
timating tree
form factor.
This study aims to construct a mathematical model to calculate the form factor of
brutia pine trees grown in the regions of Rabiaa in northern Latakia. The form factor model
can help foresters to precisely estimate the volume of tree and forest stands.
During the period 2008-2011, 72 pine trees of various ages and sizes, located in
natural stands of different densities and site qualities, were felled.
Diameters at different heights of the felled trees were measured; trees volumes and
volumes of equivalent cylinders were calculated, and consequently the values of tree form
factor were computed. The dataset was randomly split into two parts, 75% (55 trees) of the
data for constructing form factor model and 25% (17 trees) for model validation.
A form factor model was obtained using the non-linear regression equations in the
statistical program SPSS. Value of the coefficient of determination adjusted (R²adj) was
about 0.81. The model has been validated using several statistical methods, the relative
bias ( e%) was ca. 17.9%, while the value of model accuracy ) % x m ) was 22.9 %. In
order to obtain lower value of model relative bias and higher value of accuracy it’s
recommended to use a larger database comprising all distribution areas of pine in Syria.
The importance of this modern technology (remote sensing) follows from the fact that it allows estimating the wood stock by knowing the value of the NDVI index, which reduces the high cost and great effort needed by traditional forestry measurements.
This study was conducted in many natural sites in Al-Bayer and Al-Bassitregions
inLattakiawhere there isthe main natural distribution of Brutia pine in Syria. The aim of the
study is to analyse the relationship between the maincharacteristics of fo
rest stands (forest
mensuration) associated with silviculturetreatments, and plant diversity in the herbaceous
layer of the forest. 32 circular plotsof 400 m2were sampled. Forest characteristics, plant
species number and abundance(using Braun-Planquetindices)were recordedin each plot.
Many diversity indices (SpeciesRichness, Shannon, Jaccard) were calculated.
Species richness in the herbaceous layer correlated positively with age and
negatively with volume, basal area, and forest cover in the over story. The effect of forest
characteristics was more important on the vegetation composition than on the species
richnessor Shannon index averages in the samples. Age was the most important
characteristic influencing the vegetation composition, hence, the similarity between
different age stages (expressed in Jaccard index).
It is suggested in this study that when studying forest silviculture and management
plans and when conserving biodiversity, life formsand functions must be considered
instead ofthe traditional index.
