Mangrove ecosystems are some of the most productive and important sinks for sediment globally. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in possible causes of stress in mangroves, such as nutrient limitation, high salinity, solar radiation and temperature. We measured different factors casing stress and determined how they influenced oxidative stress and growth biomarkers in six study sites dominated by mangroves; Al Lith, South Jeddah, Dahban, Thuwal, Rabigh and Mastorah. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were recorded in water salinities and temperatures, nitrogen and phosphorus content in sediments, and antioxidant enzyme activities in different study sites. The highest salinity (40.75 ‰) and temperature (29.32°C) were recorded in the Rabigh mangrove stand, which corresponds to the lowest dissolved oxygen (5.21 mg/L). Total organic carbon, total nitrogen and total phosphorus in sediment across the study areas were in the order Rabigh>Thuwal>Dahban>Al Lith>South Jeddah>Mastorah. Total nitrogen in mangrove leaves at Rabigh was the highest and about 1.3 times higher than the total nitrogen in South Jeddah mangrove ecosystem, very different from the ratio of total nitrogen in the sediments at Rabigh and South Jeddah mangrove ecosystems. The average values of δ13C (-17.60‰) and δ15N (2.84‰) in the six mangrove ecosystems, and the highest δ13C (-13.62‰) and δ15N (4.39‰) at Rabigh in the sediments suggest that nutrient input differed among study sites. Higher nutrient levels at Rabigh mangrove ecosystem were attributed to restricted circulation, camel grazing and land runoff with agricultural waste during seasonal flooding events. However, N limitation and possibly salinity contributed to stress in Al Lith, South Jeddah, Dahban, Thuwal, Rabigh, and Mastorah mangrove ecosystems. Salinity (r = 0.9012) contribute more to stress at Rabigh.

Mangrove ecosystems are prone to die due to both anthropogenic and natural effects. The present study is a case study of how the formation of sand bars affects the natural mangrove ecosystem and becoming a threat to its rich biodiversity of flora and fauna. The Kadalundi – Vallikkunnu Community Reserve located in Kozhikode and Malappuram Districts in Kerala State is the first community reserve of Kerala, declared in 2007 which spread across 1.5 sq. km. andthis area includes Kadalundi bird sanctuary, mangroves and estuarine. These area mainly affected by numerous biotic interferences like over fishing, collection of oyster and mussels, mining of sand and lime and also retting of coconut. The formation of sand bars at the mouth of the river has resulted in the massive die back of the mangrove vegetation, especially that of Avicennia Marina which is one of the five species of mangroves found in the Kadalundi – Vallikunnu community reserve. The illegal utilization of land for coconut plantation, urbanization and dumping of urban waste near the mouth of the river had made the problem highly complicated. The present study highlights the need for urgent measures to be adopted from the authorities to ensure community participation for restoration of community reserve.

Mangrove at Tahura Ngurah Rai Bali contributes the organic material into environment. Polychaeta is one of the main benthic macrofauna that has important role in accumulating organic material to mangrove ecosystem. The purpose of this research is to explain the abundance and diversity of Polychaeta such as Rhizophora mucronata, mix mangrove and Sonneratia alba at Tahura Ngurah Rai. The sampling of Polychaeta using corers with diameter 17 cm and height 18 cm those sink in the substrate. The abundance was analyzed by the Krebs and diversity was analyzed by Shannon Wiener index. There were five genus of Polychaeta, such as Heteromastus, Marphysa, Laeonereis, Nereis, and Paranaitis. The highest abundance of Polychaeta was found in mixed stations (432 ± 57,37 ind/m2), and the lowest abundance was in R. mucronata (414 ± 79,93 ind/m2). The abundance of Polychaeta in the three stations did not differ significantly because it was influenced by the dominant substrate of sandy clay. The highest Polychaeta diversity was found in S. alba (0,704), followed by the mixed station (0,642), and the lowest was in R. mucronata. The value of Polychaeta diversity on the three stations differed significantly because of the comparison between the type and total number of individuals in each station that varied. The Polychaeta diversity index in the three stations is low, while the Polychaeta abundance value in each station is quite abundant. The result showed that the stability of the Polychaeta community in the mangrove ecosystem is unstable.

The Bengkak coastal area is one of the coastal areas which is a marine fishery activity with a natural mangrove ecosystem of ± 9 ha bordered by reed mangrove and opposite to TN West Bali mangrove. Environmental pressure with the presence of human activities such as the extraction of mangrove wood causes the growth and development of mangroves not optimal and affects the potential of mangrove ecosystems so research needs to be done to determine the diversity of mangrove ecosystems on the coast of Bengkak Village, Banyuwangi District. Observations in the whole mangrove ecosystem have low species diversity criteria, namely H 'ranging from 0.20 - 0.67 and dominated by A. marina species from the families Avicenniaceae and R. mucronata from the family Rhizophoraceae. While the density of species in all observation stations found that mangrove stands ranged from 967 - 82,000 Ind / Ha. The density of A. marina mangrove vegetation was identified as the highest in the seedling phase of 7,500 Ind / Ha, the sapling phase was 74,000 Ind / Ha and the tree phase was 567 Ind / Ha. The lowest type of R. mucronata was identified in the seedling phase of 5,000 Ind / Ha, sapling phase of 8,000 Ind / Ha and tree phase of 400 Ind / Ha. Environmental factors in the form of nutrients such as leaf litter and the quality of the aquatic environment also influence the growth and development of mangrove ecosystems. environmental conditions in the mangrove zone have the texture of sandy soil and sandy mud, temperatures range from 23 - 33 °C, pH ranges from 7 and salinity ranges from 23 - 36 ‰. These environmental conditions support the growth and development of the species of mangrove Avicennia sp. and Rhizopora sp. so that it is dominant and spreads on the coast of Bengkak Village.

There is limited data on the fungal diversity in mangrove ecosystems in Guyana. This study investigated fungal diversity during the dry season in three selected coastal mangrove ecosystems along the Corentyne Coast of East Berbice, Guyana. Sampling was conducted within randomly established 50 m x 50 m plots containing 20 mini transects of length 12.5 m x 10 m in the overwash mangrove ecosystem at each of six study sites within the three study locations. Samples retrieved from the study plots included leaf, bark, soil and fruiting bodies. These were placed into separate bags and labelled appropriately. Environmental parameters were recorded at each study plot. Fruiting bodies were used to identify macrofungal species, and the leaf, bark and soil were used to prepare cultures from which microfungal samples were identified. The species that were identified were used to compile a checklist of fungal species, and diversity indices were calculated. A total of thirty (30) species were recorded, nine (9) of which were microfungi identified from the cultured samples and twenty-one (21) species were identified from macrofungal fruiting bodies retrieved at the study sites. The results further revealed that an increase in pH and salinity and a decrease in temperature resulted in an increase in species richness. Tidal activity also appeared to reduce species richness. Aspergillus, Rhizopus and Trichoderma were the dominant species at the three study sites with high relative species abundance. There also appeared to be some instances of substrate specificity.

Terletak di sekitar Selat Madura, Kabupaten dan Kota Probolinggo merupakan habitat dari vegetasi mangrove, tetapi keberadaan hutan mangrove di lokasi ini sebagian besar telah dikonversi menjadi areal pertambakan. Vegetasi mangrove yang tersisa tumbuh hanya di pematang tambak dan di sekitar bagian pantai. Potamididae merupakan satu-satunya famili dari gastropoda dimana semua anggotanya hanya dapat ditemukan berasosiasi dengan vegetasi mangrove. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui komposisi spesies keong Potamididae di areal pertambakan Probolinggo. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Februari dan April 2013 menggunakan metode Purposive Random Sampling di tujuh stasiun penelitian. Identifikasi spesies keong Potamididae dilakukan terutama berdasarkan karakter morfologi cangkang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa delapan spesies keong Famili Potamididae ditemukan pada lokasi ini. Keberadaan vegetasi mangrove, jarak terdekat dengan garis pantai, suhu, salinitas dan pola arus serta pasang surut air laut dicatat sebagai faktor pendukung pertumbuhan dan perkembangan keong di lokasi penelitian. Hasil dari penelitian ini diharapkan dapat membuka peluang penelitian selanjutnya untuk mengetahui peran dan pengaruh keong Potamididae bagi kesehatan ekosistem habitat mangrove di area pertambakan.COMPOSITION OF POTAMIDID SNAILS IN THE MANGROVE ECOSYSTEM OF PROBOLINGGO POND AREA, EAST JAVA. Located around Madura Strait, Probolinggo City and Regency is a home for mangrove vegetation, but the mangrove forest in this are mostly has been converted into aquaculture ponds. The mangrove relic grows in the pond embankment and the narrow strip along the seaside. Potamididae is the only family of gastropods in which all members can only found associated with mangrove vegetation. The aim of this research was to determine species composition of potamidid snails in the pond environment of Probolinggo. The research was conducted in February and April 2013 using Purposive Random Sampling method in seven sampling stations. The species identification of the snails was based primarily on morphological shell characters. The results showed that eight species of Family Potamididae were found at the sites. The presence of mangrove trees, the distance to nearest coastline, temperature, salinity, and the pattern of ocean current and tide seemed to support the snails to grow and thrive in the study sites. The results of this study are expected to open up opportunities for further research to determine the role and influence of potamidid snails on the ecosystem health of mangrove habitat in the pond environment.
