This study evaluates suitable combined datasets of spectral data and texture measure for LU/LC classification using supervised classification with Artificial Neural Networks. In this study, 10 datasets were MS, MS and Mean, MS and Variance, MS and Contrast, MS and Angular second moment, MS and Correlation, MS and Homogeneity, MS and Entropy, MS and Dissimilarity and MS and Semivariogram. All datasets were classified into 10 LU/LC types that consisted of urban and built-up area, paddy field, cassava, sugarcane, eucalyptus, orchard, forest land, water body, scrub and abandoned land. -

THAILAND Submission to the CERD Committee Coalition on Racial
Shadow Report on Eliminating Racial Discrimination: THAILAND Submission to the CERD Committee 1 Coalition on Racial Discrimination Watch Preamble: 1. “ We have a distinct way of life, settlement and cultivation practices that are intricately linked with nature, forests and wild life. Our ways of life are sustainable and nature friendly and these traditions and practices have been taught and passed on from one generation to the next. But now because of State policies and waves of modernisation we are struggling to preserve and maintain our traditional ways of life” Mr. Joni Odochao, Intellectual, Karen ethnic, Opening Speech at the Indigenous Peoples Day Festival in Chiangmai, Northern Thailand 2007 Introduction on Indigenous peoples and ethnic groups in Thailand 1 The coalition was established as a loose network at the Workshop Programme on 5th July 2012 on the Shadow Report on the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) organised by the Ethnic Studies and Development Center, Sociology Faculty, Chiangmai University in cooperation with Cross Cultural Foundation and the Highland Peoples Taskforce 1 2. The Network of Indigenous Peoples in Thailand2, in the International Working Group for Indigenous Affairs (IWGIA) yearbook on 2008, explained the background of indigenous peoples in Thailand. The indigenous people of Thailand are most commonly referred to as “hill tribes”, sometimes as “ethnic minorities”, and the ten officially recognised ethnic groups are usually called “chao khao” (meaning “hill/mountain people” or “highlanders”). These and other indigenous people live in the North and North-western parts of the country. A few other indigenous groups live in the North-east and indigenous fishing communities and a small population of hunter-gatherers inhabit the South of Thailand. -
Descriptions of New Species of Dryinidae (Hymenop- Tera: Chrysidoidea) from Thailand
Oriental Insects, Vol. 42: 227–235, 2008. DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW SPECIES OF DRYINIDAE (HYMENOP- TERA: CHRYSIDOIDEA) FROM THAILAND MASSIMO OLMI Dipartimento di Protezione delle piante, Università della Tuscia, 01100 Viterbo, Italy Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT . Eight new species of Dryinidae (Hymenoptera: Chrysidoidea) are described from Thailand, namely Aphelopus thai ; Anteon phuphayonense , semipolitum , khaokhoense , doiense , phetchabunense ; Pseudodryinus thai ; Neodryinus phuphayonensis . The holotypes are deposited in the collections of Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden, Chiang Mai, Thailand. The keys to the Oriental Aphelopus , Anteon , Pseudodryinus and Neodryinus are modified. Key words: Hymenoptera, Dryinidae, Aphelopus , Anteon , Pseudodryinus , Neodryinus , new species, taxonomy. Introduction Dryinidae (Hymenoptera: Chrysidoidea) are parasitoids of Hemiptera Cicadomorpha and Fulgoromorpha (Guglielmino & Olmi 1997, 2006, 2007). The Dryinidae (Hymenoptera: Chrysidoidea) of Thailand were studied in the last thirty years mainly by Olmi (1984, 1991, 1998a, 1998b, 2000, 2005). However, in spite of the above papers, they can be considered insufficiently known. In 2007 I received for study an interesting collection of unidentified dryinids from Thailand. The study of this material resulted in the discovery of eight new species described herein. Material and Methods The descriptions follow the terminology used by Olmi (1984, 1994, 1999). The measurements reported are relative, except for the total length (head to abdominal tip, without the antennae), which is expressed in millimetres. The study techniques were those proposed by Olmi (1984). In the descriptions POL is the distance between the inner edges of the two lateral ocelli; OL is the distance between the inner edges of a lateral ocellus and the median ocellus; OOL is the distance from the outer edge of a lateral ocellus to the compound eye; OPL is the distance from the posterior edge of a lateral ocellus to the occipital carina; TL is the distance from the posterior edge of an eye to the occipital carina. -

The Acts of Nationality of 1961, 1966, 1992/1, 1992/2, and 2008, and the Revolutionary Council Announcement of 1972 will be approached by discourse analysis. The language used in the five Acts and the Revolutionary Council Announcement of 1972 will be analyzed to detect how significance and identity are produced and reproduced. By reviewing literature, this article further examines the ways in which the nationality discourse constitutes the lives of transnational peoples in the Thai-Lao border of Ubon Ratchathani province.
