Archaeological tourism can be defined as travel to experience places, activities and artefacts that authentically present stories and peoples of the past. This study examines the role of GIS in archaeological heritage tourism and planning using, as a case study, Najran region in Saudi Arabia. As well as being an important historic trading hub, Najran includes significant archaeological sites, therefore it has the potential to be an alternative for tourists who might be looking at Yemen as a tourist destination especially when Saudi Arabia starts issuing tourist visas. As an initial step, governmental archaeological records were combined with information from a literature review and fieldwork to develop a geospatial archaeological heritage database for Najran. Simultaneously, data on tourism accommodation and facilities were collated through a mixture of field surveys, Internet sources such as OpenStreetMap, and local tourism-promotion materials. Sieve analysis of the resulting spatial databases suggest that there are six archaeological tourist sites with high potential based on archaeology, accessibility and site characteristics. With the city of Najran dominating the provision of tourism accommodation and facilities, the most appropriate role for GIS is likely to be in combining knowledge of the spatial distribution of archaeological sites with tourism and amenities. The next step was to conduct a consumer survey to evaluate selected archaeological tourist sites, where the results indicate that those sites located outdoors are more likely to be visited in the future. The final step was to characterise the landscapes around the potential archaeological tourist sites in the Najran region, e.g. mountains, vegetation, wadis etc. This thesis provides a GIS-based management tool for the development of tourism in Najran Province in line with the rapidly developing national tourism policy.

Parasites Vectors (2019) 12:356 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-019-3579-4 Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Assessment and an updated list of the mosquitoes of Saudi Arabia Azzam M. Alahmed1, Kashif Munawar1*, Sayed M. S. Khalil1,2 and Ralph E. Harbach3 Abstract Background: Mosquito-borne pathogens are important causes of diseases in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Knowl- edge of the mosquito fauna is needed for the appropriate control of the vectors that transmit the pathogens and prevent the diseases they cause. An important frst step is to have an up-to-date list of the species known to be present in the country. Original occurrence records were obtained from published literature and critically scrutinized to compile a list of the mosquito species that occur within the borders of the Kingdom. Results: Fifty-one species have been recorded in the Kingdom; however, the occurrence of two of these species is unlikely. Thus, the mosquito fauna of the Kingdom comprises 49 species that include 18 anophelines and 31 culicines. Published records are provided for each species. Problematic records based on misidentifcations and inappropriate sources are discussed and annotated for clarity. Conclusion: Integrated morphological and molecular methods of identifcation are needed to refne the list of spe- cies and accurately document their distributions in the Kingdom. Keywords: Culicidae, Mosquitoes, Saudi Arabia, Vectors Background Mosquito-borne pathogens, including Plasmodium Te Arabian Peninsula (c.3 million km2) includes the species, dengue virus, Rift Valley fever virus and micro- Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), Oman, Qatar, United flariae, cause diseases in the KSA [9–11].

The data were collected through a well-structured questionnaire Attitude; from 100 respondents residing in the province. Pearson Correlation Coefficient was used to see the Intentions; significant and non-significant impact of the two variables. The results showed that majority (37%) Saudi Arabia; of the respondents fell in the age group of 25–34 and majority (35%) of the respondents have high Aquaponics level of education i.e. up to university level. The results also depicted that majority (31%) of the people consume fish and were aware of the nutritional value of fish. However, majority (85%) of the respondents were not satisfied by the fish price. The results further indicated that none of the respondent was engaged in fish farming activity i.e. they had no fish farms at their homes. Further- more, majority (83%) respondents had no intentions to start fish farming at their homes in future.

  • Concept and Types of Tourism
    m Tourism: Concept and Types of Tourism m m 1.1 CONCEPT OF TOURISM Tourism is an ever-expanding service industry with vast growth potential and has therefore become one of the crucial concerns of the not only nations but also of the international community as a whole. Infact, it has come up as a decisive link in gearing up the pace of the socio-economic development world over. It is believed that the word tour in the context of tourism became established in the English language by the eighteen century. On the other hand, according to oxford dictionary, the word tourism first came to light in the English in the nineteen century (1811) from a Greek word 'tomus' meaning a round shaped tool.' Tourism as a phenomenon means the movement of people (both within and across the national borders).Tourism means different things to different people because it is an abstraction of a wide range of consumption activities which demand products and services from a wide range of industries in the economy. In 1905, E. Freuler defined tourism in the modem sense of the world "as a phenomena of modem times based on the increased need for recuperation and change of air, the awakened, and cultivated appreciation of scenic beauty, the pleasure in. and the enjoyment of nature and in particularly brought about by the increasing mingling of various nations and classes of human society, as a result of the development of commerce, industry and trade, and the perfection of the means of transport'.^ Professor Huziker and Krapf of the.

Climatic data from the weather stations, Riyadh,Abha, Jeddah respectively, were used to compute daily PET in accordance with the two temperature-based models.The result byHargreaves method shows that Riyadh has highest evapotranspiration rate per followed by Jeddah and the least value is found for Abha city.While the result obtained from Thornthwaite methodshows that Jeddah has highest evapotranspiration rate per year followed by Riyadh and the least value is found for Abha city . Keywords: Evapotranspiration, Hargreaves method, Thornthwaite method, Mean Temperature, Heat Index I. INTRODUCTION The concept of Potential Evapo-Transpiration PET provides a convenient index to estimate the maximum water loss to the atmosphere. Estimates of PET are necessary in many of the rainfall-runoff and ecosystem models that are used in global change studies [2,6]. There are various models for estimating Potential Evapotranspiration PET. PET models are classified depend upon the weather parameters that play the dominant role in the model. The generally classification include: the temperature-based models [2,17]; Hargreaves and Samani[9]; the mass-transfer models (based of vapour pressure or relative humidity,[8,16]; the radiation models (based on solar radiation, [13,15], and the combination models (based on the energy balance and mass transfer principles, [1,5,14].
