Abstract Structural complexity of mangrove forests are thought to provide critical habitats for a variety of invertebrates. We studied the influence of mangrove structure and seasonality on the gastropod diversity in the extreme mangrove ecosystem of the Persian Gulf. Sampling was conducted in two successive years (February and June 2018, February and June 2019) at two mangrove habitats i.e., pneumatophore zone and mudflats. The communities were characterized by the dominance of specific taxa and the comparably low species richness. In total, 18 taxa were identified, including 14 species occurring in the mangrove forest and 16 species in the mudflats. Assimineidae dominated the community in both mangrove habitats. Mean density of gastropods was 1.5-fold higher in the pneumatophore zone (86.12±135.21 ind.m-2) than in the mudflats (54.33±108.69 ind.m-2). Species such as Haminoea vitrea, Peronia verruculata, Assiminea mesopotamica and Platevindex tigrinus were found to benefit from the presence of pneumatophores, which highlights the importance of local habitat complexity. Gastropod communities varied significantly between the habitats, but there was little difference in the community structure between seasons. Distance-based linear models revealed that total organic carbon and total organic nitrogen best explained the variation in gastropods community structure.

This study aims to describe the profile of vegetation diversity in the mangrove ecosystem in Tamuku Village, Bone-Bone-Bone District, North Luwu Regency. This research is a qualitative research using survey methods. The data collection technique uses the Quadrant Line Transect Survey technique. The data analysis technique uses the thinking flow which is divided into three stages, namely describing phenomena, classifying them, and seeing how the concepts that emerge are related to each other. The results of this study are the profile of mangrove vegetation in Tamuku Village, which is still found 16 varieties of true mangrove vegetation and 7 varieties of mangrove vegetation joined in the coastal area of Tamuku Village, Bone-Bone District, North Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi. The condition of mangrove vegetation in Tamuku Village is currently very worrying due to human activities that cause damage such as the project of normalization of flow, opening of new farms, disposal of garbage, water pollution due to chemicals, and exploitation of mangrove forests for living needs. The impact is ecosystem damage and reduced vegetation area as a place to grow and develop mangroves.

O ecossistema manguezal representa 8% de toda a linha de costa do planeta ocupando uma área total de 181.077 km2. O Brasil é o segundo país em extensão de áreas de manguezal, ficando atrás apenas da Indonésia. O objetivo do presente estudo foi mapear e identificar os principais vetores responsáveis pela supressão da cobertura das áreas de manguezal na região do Baixo Sul da Bahia, Brasil, a partir de imagens de satélite Landsat disponíveis para o período entre 1994 e 2017. Os mapeamentos foram realizados a partir de classificação supervisionada, utilizando o método Maxver. A acurácia da classificação obtida foi verificada através da verdade de campo, de índices de Exatidão Global, e dos coeficientes de concordância kappa e Tau. As classes que apresentaram maior área de cobertura no período analisado foram: vegetação ombrófila densa, agropecuária, solo exposto e manguezal. Foram identificados dois vetores principais responsáveis pela supressão dos bosques de mangue: a expansão desordenada das áreas urbanas (com destaque para o município de Valença) e o avanço da atividade de carcinicultura clandestina, devido a instalação de tanques de cultivo de camarão sem o devido processo de licenciamento ambiental (sobretudo no município de Nilo Peçanha). O uso das geotecnologias, em especial o Sensoriamento Remoto e os Sistemas de Informações Geográficas, foram ferramentas fundamentais na identificação destes vetores responsáveis pela supressão das áreas de manguezal na área de estudo região do Baixo Sul da Bahia.  Mapping and identification of vectors responsible for mangrove suppression in the Southern Bahia Lowlands, BrazilA B S T R A C TThe mangrove ecosystem represents 8% of the entire coastline of the planet and occupies a total area of 181,077 km2. Brazil is the second largest country in terms of mangrove areas, second only to Indonesia. The aim of the present study was to map and identify the main vectors responsible for the suppression of mangrove cover in the Southern Lowlands of Bahia, Brazil, from Landsat satellite images available for the period 1994-2017. based on supervised classification using the Maxver method. The accuracy of the classification obtained was verified through field truth, Global Accuracy indices, and kappa and Tau agreement coefficients. The classes that presented larger coverage area in the analyzed period were: dense ombrophilous vegetation, agriculture, exposed soil and mangrove. Two main vectors responsible for the suppression of mangrove forests were identified: the disorderly expansion of urban areas (especially the municipality of Valença) and the advance of clandestine shrimp farming due to the installation of shrimp farms without due environmental licensing process (mainly in the municipality of Nilo Peçanha). The use of geotechnologies, especially Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems, were fundamental tools in the identification of these vectors responsible for the suppression of mangrove areas in the study area of the Southern Bahia Lowlands.Key-words: environmental impacts, satellite image, shrimp farming.
