Fatty acids in an estuarine mangrove ecosystem.
Fatty acids have been successfully used to trace the transfer of organic matter in coastal and estuarine food webs. To delineate these web connections, fatty acid profiles were analyzed in species of microbes (Azotobacter vinelandii, and Lactobacillus xylosus), prawns (Metapenaeus monoceros and Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and finfish (Mugil cephalus), that are associated with decomposing leaves ...
متن کاملTurning the tide: how blue carbon and payments for ecosystem services (PES) might help save mangrove forests.
In this review paper, we aim to describe the potential for, and the key challenges to, applying PES projects to mangroves. By adopting a "carbocentric approach," we show that mangrove forests are strong candidates for PES projects. They are particularly well suited to the generation of carbon credits because of their unrivaled potential as carbon sinks, their resistance and resilience to natura...
متن کاملInfluence of Mangrove Detritus in an Estuarine Ecosystem
This study has determined the relationship and extent of mangrove reduced carbon flow and its contribution to the diet of higher consumers in a nearby seagrass bed using stable isotope techniques. In a seagrass bed approximately 80 m from a riverine mangrove community, detritus from seagrass or other marine sources of carbon such as epiphytes (Stilophora rhizodes) or phytoplankton the major con...
متن کاملDedifferentiated chordoma with a sarcomatous component: an overlooked diagnosis.
A 60 year old male presented with unremitting complaints of acute urinary retention and constipation. Computerized Tomography of the abdomen and pelvis confirmed a sacral mass. The biopsy diagnosed dedifferentiated sacral chordoma; an extremely rare entity, seldom reported and frequently misdiagnosed. We present a unique case report after an extensive review of retrospective literature on dedif...
متن کاملHigh‐resolution forest canopy height estimation in an African blue carbon ecosystem
Mangrove forests are one of the most productive and carbon dense ecosystems that are only found at tidally inundated coastal areas. Forest canopy height is an important measure for modeling carbon and biomass dynamics, as well as land cover change. By taking advantage of the flat terrain and dense canopy cover, the present study derived digital surface models (DSMs) using stereo-photogrammetric...
