Mollusc Assemblages In Relation To Habitat Characteristics In Mangroves Of Penang Island
This study is important to determine the distribution of mollusc and its relation to habitat characteristics in mangroves. As mollusc distribution patterns are patchy in the mangrove environment, patterns of mollusc assemblage compositions across spatiotemporal scales were studied in the tropical ma...

description |
This study is important to determine the distribution of mollusc and its relation to habitat characteristics in mangroves. As mollusc distribution patterns are patchy in the mangrove environment, patterns of mollusc assemblage compositions across spatiotemporal scales were studied in the tropical mangroves of Penang Island from April 2015 to January 2016. This study aimed to assess the effects of multiple spatial scales ranging from m to km across
different sampling times on the relationships between mollusc assemblages and
mangrove habitat characteristics comprising pneumatophore densities, organic matter,
detrital matter and sediment particle size. A hierarchical sampling design was used in this
study, with mollusc abundance and diversity collected simultaneously with habitat
characteristics at different Times (n=5), Forests (n=3), Heights (n=2) and Site (n=3) with
Plots (n=3) as replicates |
