MATERIALS AND METHODS Study Site The assessment of mangrove forest ecosystem was carried out in Butig Island‚ Salcedo‚ Eastern Samar from February – April 2014. Butig Is. is located at 11° _________N; 125° ______ E. Geographical coordinates of the study site were determined using the GARMIN GPS unit‚ and was plotted in Manifold. The map of the study site is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Map of Butig Island showing the seven plots Field Sampling Physico-Chemical Parameters The physico-chemical

to the biotic factors in each chamber of the ecosystem. For the aquatic chamber‚ we stated that the fish would die if the fish did not receive enough oxygen and enough food in the tank. The decomposition chamber did not have a lot of changes much because there is no activity or life in that chamber besides the the potato and the worm. The group also hypothesised that the terrestrial chamber would flourish only if it received the proper amount water and sunlight. These abiotic factors affect the biotic

However‚ the founder of the theory recognizes that there are other external factors that may contribute to the interaction of plants and pests. These factors include the plant adaptation‚ abiotic factors and management practices. The theory of Francis Chaboussou foresees the agriculture sector to shift from better management of crops production by paying attention to its proper needs. (Chaboussou as cited by Paull 2007). The above mentioned theories relay in the study since it focused on managing

Mangroves are trees and shrubs that grow in saline coastal habitats in the tropics and subtropics – mainly between latitudes 25° N and 25° S. The saline conditions tolerated by various species range from brackish water‚ through pure seawater (30 to 40 ppt)‚ to water of over twice the salinity of ocean seawater‚ where the salt has become concentrated by evaporation (up to 90 ppt).[1][2] The many species of trees and shrubs adapted to saline conditions are not all closely related‚ and the term "mangrove"

As I was observing the characteristics of a river‚ I was able to observe how important nonliving and living things are to our environment. These factors are important for the reason a living organisms would eat the nonliving at some point in time. I also went to cabrillo marine aquarium. I was able to analyze the adaptations that an ochre sea star has to adapt to. The first adaptation of a ochre

movement in law enforcement tends to be seen as something completely new‚ without historical context. Such is largely the case today with community policing. To better understand today’s debate over community policing‚ law enforcement administrators should study their history. History debunks the more outrageous claims made by some of the proponents of community policing and cautions against forgetting the important lessons of the past. It shows us that calls to change the way the police operate

During this week’s reading‚ Crossing the Mangrove by Maryse Conde I found it entertaining. Throughout this reading‚ we view the story from different people’s point of view. The different characters within the reading made it hard to keep them separate. As the reader once I am brought to understand that each chapter would help comprehend the previous chapter and know how each individual looked at Francis Sancher I could appreciate the book in more details. The main point to me in this story is

They normally grow above mean (average) sea level in intertidal zones of marine coastal environments as well as estuarine margins. A mangrove also refers to the tidal habitat comprising of such trees and shrubs. Australian mangrove systems are highly effecting by human presence and‚ thus
