Pah Tung & Huay Hin Fon Hot Springs (Mae Chan District) a Small Brief of North Thai Geysers, Hot Springs, & Thermal Vents by O P Armstrong, (P.E.) w/ pictures and maps: 2013 ________________________________________________________________________________________ There are many locations around the north Thailand and perhaps over 100 sites1,2,3 in Thailand and it’s islands where you can see hot springs. The geysers and warm pools are a popular attraction. There are many hot springs scattered about Northern Thailand along with waterfalls close to these hot springs. Natural hot springs can be loaded with health-giving minerals that may offer benefits to the body, not to mention the relaxing experience. The heat itself is said to release mental stress, relieve muscle aches and backache, help skin problems, and promote well being in general. There are also some areas in South of Thailand where hot springs emerge from the earth. It is especially the case around the Chiang Rai/Mai region. Some have been developed as attractions and are thus a bit touristy, like Sankampaeng hot springs. Still others are beautifully set amid stunning scenery with hardly anyone around, Fang & Lana-Olsen. Most of my maps & pic’s are linked off page for better viewing. Click the links to see the picture collection. Lana Olsen hot spring is a well run facility close to Mae Suei on Hwy 109 to Fang. The facilities at Lana Olsen are superb. I rate L-O at 5 stars due to close proximity and the well attended details. A view of these pic’s is recommended. Huay Mark Liam HOT SPRING (Muang district) It is a part of Lam Naam Khok National Park and located on the Khok riverside. The area is a nice and peaceful place for recreation. Its diameter is 5 meters and there is an outdoor hot spa. The average temperature of hot spa is 67 C. The hot spa consists of Fluoride, Nitrate, Sulphate, and Iodine which is not harmful for people who take mineral bath. It is located about 1 km. away from Pha Sert Hot Spa. There are individual rooms avalible. SiamSoaker’s link is broke. Pha Sert Hot Spa is located nearby Pong Nam Rorn Backwater, Baan Pha Sert Pattana, M.6< Doi Hang< Chiang Rai.There is a big outdoor pool for general public. Also nearby are private spa rooms, Thai massage and Camping service. It is across river from Elephant Camp. There are 2 ways to get there. By boat, (read: expensive) from long tail boat pier (CR pier) at Mae Fah Luang Bridge, takes 50 mins. Bus and car use the Nha Kai road, about 20 kms from Den Ha Junction. The roads are curvy but well marked. Pong Phra Baht (aka Baan Doo) HOT SPRING (Muang district) Located about 8 km north from the city of Chiangrai. It is 2 km west from Baan Doo Market on the left hand side. It is a natural hot spring and it was discovered in 1957. The water temperature is around 60C. The hot spring could probably last for another 50 years. There are gardens, resting areas and private hot spring water bathing rooms. There are 10 rooms each with individual bath tub. Call 053-703-262 for more details. Pah Tung & Huay Hin Fon Hot Springs (Mae Chan district) A small hot spring that tourists usually go for recreation before or after go to Doi Mae Salong. It is located in Pa Tung village, Pa Tung Sub-District of Mae Chan. There are 15 private mineral bathrooms. The Huay Hin Fon is suppost to be located within 2 km on the same road, about 7kms. on the Mae Chan-Ta Thone road. The temperature of these springs range between 70-109C. I concurr the Siamsoaker’s review and was only able to find a single location. 1 Brief of North Thai Geysers, Hot Springs, & Thermal Vents by O P Armstrong, (P.E.) w/ pictures and maps: 2013 ________________________________________________________________________________________ Fang Also between Chiang Rai/Mai, Fang has dozens of hot springs in a close-knit forested area. You can find them at Ban Pin to the northwest of Fang town. Temperatures go upwards of 90°C and the largest hot spring emits a constant jet of steam. This is perhaps the most impressive hot spring of them all, like a moon surface scattered with geysers, as well as a regular spout. Plus excellent facilities. It can be accessed from either the Chaing Mai to Mai Ai road or the Mae Suei Fang road from Chaing Rai. Maliga Hot Spring is located in the north of Chiang Mai province. Malinga Hot Spring is not well known, neither by tourists nor by locals. It may have been different 10-20 years before. The site itself is just off to the north of the main road between Fang and Mai Ai, close to Lao Tu coffee shop. The site is improved since SiamSoaker’s visit but remains only suitable for egg cooking & a foot soak. Mae Kha Jaan & Wiang Pa Pao Hot Spring(s?): (Wiang Pah Pao district) located in Mae Chedi Mai Sub-District of Wiang Pa Pao. Wiang Pa Pao Hot Spring is a popular road stop point for travelers along Hwy 118 (1019 & 1150). This location is on the road half way between Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Thaweesin Geyser is also located nearby, where the water temperature is approximately 95C. It can shoot up to 37 metres high and it occurs every 30 minutes. A popular activity is the boiling of eggs in the hot spring water. You can visit the town, viewing precious stones at Ploymaneewat Lapidary or check out the temple ruins at Wat Pratart Mae Chedi. It is a place that buses stop between Chiangmai & Chiangrai. Souvenir shop and local products are available there. Mae Kha Jan Hot Spring is divided into three hot springs. The average temperature is 80oC. This will boil eggs within 3 minutes. Opposite Mae Kha Jaan Hot spring were mineral bathrooms. Driving to Mae Kha Jan Hot Spring via High Way No.118 to Chiang Mai the same way as Wat Phrajao Thong Thip, pass Wiang Pa Pao and hot spring will be on the left of Mae Khajan Market Mae Khajan. The hot springs can be viewed on either side of the main road here. Boiling eggs in the hot spring pools is popular. Visiting Mae Khajan Hot Springs: Located on highway No.118 approximate 80km from Chiang Mai and 90km from Chiang Rai. This is the tallest geyser in Thailand. The Pong Te Wee hot spring (Wiang Pah Pao district) is suppossidly about 2 km. on the Wiang Pa-Pao road. There are reported to be rooms with bath tubs. N19’06.91,E99’27.78 Huay Sai Khao hot spring (Phan district of CR) It is located 10km north of Phan on the east side of Paholyotin road, Hwy#1 towards Payao. There are 3 springs, hot, warm, & cold. The facility is tidy, a bit long in the tooth. It is suitable only for an isolated foot soak. This site is AKA Ban Huay Zai Kao Hot Spring of Mae Lao District, Chiangrai. The Huay Zai hot spring is free & in natural or raw state. The off-ramp serves as an austere car park. See footnote on thai diction & translation. Phu Sang hot Spring and waterfall is located in the national park, Phu Sang National Park, located in Chaing Kam District, Phayao province and Tueng (Thoeng) District, Chiang Rai province. The water of Namtok Phu Sang comes from a hot spring with water temperatures around 33-35°C. It is mostly frequented by families with small children due to the shallow stream making a super playground. 2 Brief of North Thai Geysers, Hot Springs, & Thermal Vents by O P Armstrong, (P.E.) w/ pictures and maps: 2013 ________________________________________________________________________________________ Hot springs near Chiang Mai Sankampaeng Located about 25 miles to the east of Chiang Mai city, Sankampaeng hot springs are on the tourist trail and one of the most visited attractions in the province. The boiling springs are set in a lovely area and are free to enter. You can see where they come out of the ground and there are also public and private pools onsite that utilise the hot water. Accommodation is available near the springs at the Sankamphaeng Hot Spring Co-operative Village (phone: +66 1 510 0418). Pai – Thapae The hot springs in the mountain village of Pai, Mae Hong Son province, are also popular. The hot springs are a little south of town, reached by an ardous drive. Some of the nearby resorts have built public pools using the same spring water and offer better value at 100 baht. Pong Duead On the way to Pai from Chiang Mai in Huay Nam Dang National Park, these hot springs are a lot more impressive than those in Pai. There are three or four of them and they shoot water from geysers up to six or seven feet in height, with clouds of steam bellowing tens of feet into the air. There is also a nature trail here - Pong Duead Nature Trail – which stretches for about a mile, along with many waterfalls and viewpoints. Huay Nam Dang National Park is between kilometre markers KM65 and KM66 on the main Chiang Mai to Pai highway, 1095. Tha Pai Hot Spring Location : Amphoe Pai This is another attraction in the area of Huai Nam Dang National Park. The hot spring is two km off Route 1095 at Km. 87. It has an average temperature of 80C. Steam from the spring permeates the site in the morning creating fascinating sights.

In 2011, however, Thailand suffered a severe flood, and that means the country’s water management was not successful. Maetaeng watershed is another area that has been receiving a lot of funding to develop and solve the problem of water resources in the area continuously. Still, it was also found that the projects and budgets spent still cannot fix the problems of water resources in the area. This study aims to analyze the events, problems, and factors that can lead to the process development of integrated water resources management in Mae Taeng watershed area, Chiang Mai province. This qualitative study workshop was conducted by collecting basic information, setting a discussion panel for water users, and a workshop to brainstorm for the ideas of water management. The findings showed important factors positively affect the strength of the community, cooperation in water management of the community, and the sacrifices of strong community leaders. The negative impacts include the deforestation of certain ethnic groups, cultural diversity, a lack of awareness in the role of community leaders, as well as insufficient funding.

  • Assessment of Genetic Diversity in Thai Upland Rice Varieties Using SSR Markers
    AJCS 14(04):597-604 (2020) ISSN:1835-2707 doi: 10.21475/ajcs.20.14.04.p2092 Assessment of genetic diversity in Thai upland rice varieties using SSR markers Somrudee Nilthong*, Ekachai Chukeatirote, Rungrote Nilthong School of Science, Mae Fah Luang University, Chiang Rai 57100, Thailand *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Upland rice (Oryza sativa L.) is precious genetic resource containing some valuable alleles not common in modern germplasm. In this study, genetic diversity and population structure of 98 upland rice varieties from northern part of Thailand were examined using nine simple sequence repeat markers. Number of alleles detected by the above primers was 50 with a minimum and maximum frequency of 2 to 10 alleles per locus, respectively. The polymorphic information content (PIC) values ranged from 0.375 to 0.714 with an average of 0.605 for the primers RM164 and RM1, respectively. Dendrogram cluster analysis of the SSR data distinctly classified all genotypes into three major groups (I, II and III), which corresponded to their places of collection. Population structure divided these genotypes into two distinct subpopulations. Subpopulation 1 consisted of upland rice varieties that collected from Chiang Rai province while the majority of subpopulation 2 were collected from Phayao and Phitsanulok provinces. Analysis of molecular variance revealed 68% variance among two subpopulations and 32% variance within subpopulations, suggesting a high genetic differentiation between the two subpopulations. The huge genetic variability of upland rice in northern part of Thailand can be used to complement the gene pool of modern genotypes in rice breeding program. Keywords: Oryza sativa L.

  • Immediate Assistance to Ease Impacts of the Earthquake in Northern Thailand (7/5/2014)
    Immediate Assistance to Ease Impacts of the Earthquake in Northern Thailand (7/5/2014) The Cabinet during its meeting on 6 May 2014 formed a committee to provide immediate assistance and ease impacts of the earthquake in northern Thailand. The committee is chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Plodprasop Suraswadi, who cited the earthquake as one of the strongest Thailand has ever experienced. The earthquake, with the epicenter in Phan district in Chiang Rai province, occurred at 6:08 p.m. on Monday, 5 May 2014. Following the quake, measuring 6.3 on the Richter scale, there were more than 100 aftershocks up until 7:00 a.m. on 6 May. More than 50 aftershocks were below 3.0 on the Richter scale; 41 were between 3.0 and 3.9; 13 were between 4.0 and 4.9; and five were between 5.0 and 5.9, according to the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation. There were reports that the quake and its aftershocks could be felt mainly in the northern provinces of Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Lamphun, Lampang, Nan, Phayao, and Phrae. People in high-rise buildings in Bangkok also felt the tremor. The famous Wat Rong Khun in Mueang district of Chiang Rai sustained substantial damage and is now closed for repairs. Mr. Plodprasop said that the aftershocks would last at least three days following the quake. Officials involved are conducting a survey on damage to lives and property caused by the quake. The survey will be completed within 15 days. He stated that the Cabinet is preparing an emergency fund for relief and rehabilitation work.

Snails were collected and examined in 14 sites of Mae Lao agricultural basin from August 2016 to October 2017. A total of 1,688 snail individuals were collected and classified into 7 families, 8 genera, and 12 species. Snail diversity and habitat types were higher in rice paddies than irri- gation canals and streams. The most abundant species was Bithynia siamensis siamensis, representing 54.6% of the sample. Three species of snails act as first intermediate host were found with cercarial infections. They were Filopaludina sumatrensis polygramma, B. s. siamensis, and Melanoides tuberculata. The cercariae were categorized into 7 types; echi- nostome, monostome, gymnocephalous, virgulate, parapleurolophocercous, pleurolophocercous and megalurous cer- cariae. Parapleurolophocercous cercariae constituted the most common type of cercariae recovered, contributing 41.2% of all infections in snails. Echinostome metacercariae infections were found in 6 snail species with 7.6% prevalence. In addition, the metacercaria of avian trematode, Thapariella sp. were found in Filopaludina spp.

  • The Genus Habenaria (Orchidaceae) in Thailand INTRODUCTION
    THAI FOR. BULL. (BOT.), SPECIAL ISSUE: 7–105. 2009. The genus Habenaria (Orchidaceae) in Thailand HUBERT KURZWEIL1 ABSTRACT. The taxonomy of the Thai species of the largely terrestrial orchid genus Habenaria Willd. is reviewed. Forty-six species are recognised. H. humidicola Rolfe, H. poilanei Gagnep. and H. ciliolaris Kraenzl. are newly recorded for Thailand based on a single collection each, although the identifi cation of the latter two is uncertain. An aberrant specimen of H. viridifl ora (Rottler ex Sw.) Lindl. is pointed out. H. erichmichaelii Christenson is reduced to synonymy under H. rhodocheila Hance. Several diffi cult and geographically widespread species complexes are identifi ed and the need for future studies of all of the available material over the entire distribution range is emphasized. Based on the herbarium and spirit material examined here the following distribution pattern emerged: about 53 % of all collections of Thai Habenaria species were made in northern Thailand (although this may partly be due to collector’s bias) and about 15 % in north-eastern Thailand, while only between 4.5 and 7.5 % come from each of the other fl oristic regions of the country. In addition, an assessment of the conservation status has been made in all species. The present study will form the basis for a later contribution to the Flora of Thailand. KEY WORDS: Habenaria, Orchidaceae, Thailand, conservation, identifi cation, morphology, systematics. INTRODUCTION Habenaria Willd. is a largely terrestrial orchid genus placed in subfamily Orchidoideae (Pridgeon et al., 2001). The genus currently accounts for about 600 species making it by far the largest in the subfamily.
