Mangrove degradation is one of the most common issues in coastal areas Java, which can cause ecological impacts and even disadvantage for local community. The mangrove forest be identified based on vegetation analysis results, could potentially contribute to ecosystem management rehabilitation programs areas. Mangroves Keboromo Village was cultivation area, but often get damaged by ocean waves....

Vegetation trampling resulting from recreation can adversely impact natural habitats, leading to the loss of vegetation and the degradation of plant communities. A considerable primary literature exists on this topic, therefore it is important to assess whether this accumulated evidence can be used to reach general conclusions concerning vegetation vulnerability to inform conservation managemen...

The turbidity of lakes is generally considered to be a smooth function of their nutrient status. However, recent results suggest that over a range of nutrient concentrations, shallow l&es can have two alternative equilibria: a clear state dominated by nquatic vegetation, and a turbid state characterized by high algal biomass. This bi-stability has important implications for the possibilities of...
