PENGARUH STRUKTUR VEGETASI TERHADAP KELIMPAHAN KERANG BAKAU (Polymesoda erosaLightfoot 1786) PADA MUSIM KEMARAU DI KAWASAN HUTAN MANGROVE SEGARAANAKAN CILACAP
Abstract: The aim of this
research is to analysis the effect of vegetation structure on abundance of
mangrove clam (Polymesoda erosa Lightfoot 1786) at dry season in mangrove
forest of Segaraanakan Cilacap. This forest has a degradation area from 17.090
hectare to 9.272 hectare because of illegal logging on mangrove vegetation. The
degradation of mangrove vegetation will cause on degradation on mangrove clams.
Method of the research was stratified purposive sampling based on mangrove.
vegetation The results of research
showed that from cubic regression analysis the mangrove saplings vegetations
has no effect onthe abundance of mangrove clams, vice versa, the mangrove
seedlings has an effect onthe abundance of mangrove clams. Bio-environment
analysis results indicate that mangrove seedlings which influence to mangrove
clams abundance were Acanthu sebrateatus, Avicennia marina, Acrostimum
speciosum and Sonneratia alba.
