چکیده

تالاب‌ها، اکوسیستم‌هایی با بهره‌وری بالا هستند که نقش مهمی در رفاه جوامع انسانی دارند. بااین‌حال سلامت این اکوسیستم‌های ارزشمند به‌شدت تحت تأثیر فشارهای محیط‌زیستی ناشی از فعالیت‌های انسانی قرار دارد. در مطالعة حاضر، ارزش تفریحی تالاب چغاخور واقع در استان چهارمحال بختیاری با استفاده از روش ارزش‌گذاری هزینة سفر انفرادی و براساس مدل لگاریتمی-خطی برآورد شده است. در برخی از مطالعات از روش هزینة سفر منطقه‌ای بدین‌منظور استفاده می‌شود این در حالی است که در مطالعة حاضر با توجه به اینکه اکثر بازدیدکننده‌ها بومی هستند از روش هزینة سفر انفرادی استفاده شده است. تعداد نمونة مورد بررسی شامل 150 پرسشنامه بود که این تعداد با استفاده از روش کوکران به‌دست آمد. براساس نتایج، متغیر هزینة سفر، درآمد ماهانه، تحصیلات و فصل بازدید اثر معنی‌داری بر تعداد بازدیدهای سالانه دارد (0.05>P). مازاد مصرف‌کننده هر بازدیدکننده 1/2 میلیون تومان و ارزش تفریحی سالیانه و ارزش تفریحی هر هکتار به‌ترتیب ۱۸۴ میلیارد و ۸۰ میلیون تومان برآورد شده است. با توجه به نتایج این پژوهش، ارزش تفریحی منطقة مورد مطالعه بیشتر از موارد مشابه در کشور است. آب‌وهوای خنک و وجود جذابیت‌های فراوان و طبیعی در این تالاب از جمله دلایل بالاتر بودن این ارزش هستند، که منجر به جذابیت بیشتر این تالاب نسبت به سایر مکان‌های گردشگری کشور شده است.

چکیده [English]

Wetlands are highly productive ecosystems that play an important role in the well-being of human societies. However, the health of these valuable ecosystems is severely affected by environmental pressures caused by human activities. In the present study, the recreational value of Chaghakhor Wetland, located in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Iran, has been estimated using the individual travel cost valuation method and based on the linear-logarithmic model. In some studies, the regional travel cost method is used for this purpose, while in the present study, since most of the visitors are locals, so the individual travel cost method was used. The number of examined samples was calculated using Cochran's method which included 150 questionnaires. Based on the results, travel cost, monthly income, education and visiting season have a significant effect on the number of annual visits (P<0.05). The consumer surplus of each visitor is 1.2 million tomans, and the annual recreational value and the recreational value of each hectare are estimated to be 184 billion and 80 million tomans, respectively. Based on the results, the recreational value of the studied area is more than similar cases in Iran. The cool weather and the presence of many natural attractions in this wetland are the reasons for this higher value, which has led to the greater attractiveness of this wetland compared to other tourist places in Iran.
