Distribution of seaweeds in Mangrove forests
Many of the mangrove forests are characterized by macroalgae growing epiphytically on pneumatophores, prop roots, stems and other hard substrates. Mangrove macroalgae have an important role as primary producers in the estuarine ecosystem. In the present study, four different mangrove habitats were selected to identify the macroalgae inhabiting the roots of a mangrove species Avicennia marina in...
متن کاملMulti-Temporal Assessment of Mangrove Forests Change in the Coastal Areas of Bushehr Region Based on Landsat Satellite Imagery
Continual access to precise information about the land use/land cover (LULC) changes of the Earth’s surface is extremely important for any sustainable development program in which LULC serves as one of the major input criteria. In this study, a supervised classification was applied to three Landsat images collected in 1986, 1998and 2018, providing mangrove forests change data in the coastal are...
متن کاملObservation and Monitoring of Mangrove Forests Using Remote Sensing: Opportunities and Challenges
Mangrove forests, distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world, are in a constant flux. They provide important ecosystem goods and services to nature and society. In recent years, the carbon sequestration potential and protective role of mangrove forests from natural disasters is being highlighted as an effective option for climate change adaptation and mitigation. The fores...
متن کاملEffects of Runoff and Sediment from Upland Catchment on Mangrove Forests Area (Case Study: Gabric-Hormozgan)
The aim of this research is exploring the impact of changes in runoff and sediment of the upstream catchment on the changes in the area and amount of canopy in Gabric-Jask mangrove. Hence, hydro-climatological parameters including amount of precipitation, discharge, and sediment in Gabric catchment during the statistical period of 1993 to 2010 were selected and the annual standardized index rel...
متن کاملInvestigation on the Amount of Mortality of Iranian Oak Trees (Quercus brantii Lindi) using Satellite Imagery (Case study: Dashtebarm forests of Fars Province)
In recent years, oak trees in the Zagros forests have suffered a lot of fatalities for unclear reasons. Determining the rate and severity of forest crown density changes is important for the investigation and management of these forests. This research was carried out with the aim of determining the amount of crown cover changes in the forest area of Dashtebarm in Fars province under the influen...
