HEALTHY WITH PLANTING MANGROVE
Coral reef ecosystems
are highly sensitive and very sensitive. Never damaged, take a course, then corrupted
their integrity. This is because life on coral reefs in the underlying by interdependent
relationships among thousands of creatures. The food chain is one of the forms
of relationship. Not only that the creation process was not easy. Coral reefs take
millions of years to be created in full and beautiful. And on the waters of Indonesia
is currently taking shape since at least 450 million years ago. Benefits of
coral reefs in the life of which is the source of fish and other seafood that
contains high protein, protect the coast and the population of the blow of the
waves and currents. As a source of income for fishermen (fishing) and marine
tourism wealth selling high-power (fishing, diving, snorkeling). In addition,
as a source of marine resources that can be used as natural medicines and a
natural laboratory for education and research.
Mangrove
is derived from the Mangue / Mangal (Portugish)
and grove (English),
a type of forest
ecosystem that grows in a tidal area (beaches,
lagoons, estuaries) the stagnant tide and
free as the tide is low, vegetation community has
a tolerance of the salt sea wate. There are
some good phases of mangrove planting. First, choose a mangrove nursery, look
for healthy seed leaves two to six. Second, the stage of preconditions. With
acclimation salinity between 30 and 35 ppm for 7-10 days. At the time of
seeding, watering fresh water so low salitinas. Mangroves will be planted with
three tinggi.Tahap salitinas, planting the meeting amounted to 550 stems per
clump, 50 rods (length) and 11 bars (width) with a depth of 20-25 cm. In four
years, the mangrove height to three meters. Mangrove maximum height of 4 meters
to 5 meters. Why we can
be healthy
by planting mangrove?
Because, mangrove ecosystems are highly productive ecosystems with
very high primary productivity than other ecosystems in the waters. Mangrove
forests have important ecological functions, namely as one of absorbing carbon
dioxide in the air. Increased carbon dioxide in the air can cause global
warming. In the event of global warming by cutting the massive mangrove forest
then this will affect coral reefs and seagrass ecosystems. Another benefit of
the Mangrove is a distinctive group of plants that can survive in brackish
water, a sheltered habitat along the coasts of tropical and sub-tropical
regions. Mangroves are known as primary producers, shoreline protection,
hatchery and habitat for various biota, and its unique biological resources.
Mangroves can control erosion and shoreline stabilization.
It's important for mangrove
ecosystem is to
be preserved and kept
together synergistically, so
avoid the damage. From the above
explanation we can see that the natural
and human impacts will affect these ecosystems. Let, keep the good preservation
of mangrove forests. sustainability depends on our awareness of all mangrove.
Destruction in the earth both on land and at sea was the work of human actions.
