Ecological influences on regeneration dynamics in the sundarbans, Bangladesh: Exploring biotic and abiotic factors across time and space

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Natural regeneration is critical for sustaining mangrove ecosystems, particularly the Sundarbans, the world's largest mangrove forest. This study assessed the impacts of biotic and abiotic factors on regeneration dynamics, examining spatial variations ...

Evaluating methods for high‐resolution, national‐scale seagrass mapping in Google Earth Engine

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Marine habitat mapping using satellite imagery can provide baseline and monitoring data across large spatial scales and in remote locations globally. This study evaluates how key methodological choices influence the accuracy of open‐source (for non‐commercial use), cloud‐based satellite mapping workflows for seagrass meadows in the Maldives.

Co-occurrence of juvenile horseshoe crabs Tachypleus tridentatus and Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda in an estuarine bay, southwestern China

open access: yesAquatic Biology, 2015
Spawning and nursery habitats are critical in the conservation of horseshoe crabs. We examined the abundance and distribution of juveniles of 2 species of horseshoe crabs, Tachypleus tridentatus and Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda, in a mangrove-vegetated ...

Evaluating land–sea linkages using land cover change and coral reef monitoring data: A case study from northeastern Puerto Rico

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

Mangroves

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractMangrove ecosystems are tropical coastal forests that are adapted to saltwater environments. Their unique qualities of existing primarily in moist environments at low elevation along shorelines, lack of seasonality, and compact pattern make them relatively easy to identify in satellite images.

Identifying and Forecasting Potential Biophysical Risk Areas within a Tropical Mangrove Ecosystem Using Multi-Sensor Data [PDF]

open access: yes
Mangroves are one of the most productive ecosystems known for provisioning of various ecosystem goods and services. They help in sequestering large amounts of carbon, protecting coastline against erosion, and reducing impacts of natural disasters such as

The use of mangroves for aquaculture: Cambodia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Natural conditions of the coastal and ecosystems of Cambodia have made this country rich of biodiversity resources. Cambodia’s 435 km coastline is covered with large estuaries with about 85,100 ha of mangrove forests (Nelson 1999).

Urban Forests and Environmental Challenges in the Last Decades in Brazil: Insights for the National Urban Forestry Plan

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT National afforestation policies are crucial for outlining guidelines and goals to be implemented at the local level. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct research that systematizes indicators from across the country into a single proposal. This study examines the spatiotemporal distribution of urban forest research in Brazil from 1980 to 2020 ...
