Carbon and nitrogen budgets in shrimp ponds in mangroves of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Mass balance estimates of carbon and nitrogen flux through two extensive shrimp ponds in the Mekong delta, Vietnam, were constructed. Recruitment and losses of post-larval... -
Benthic decomposition rates in mangroves of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Rates and pathways of organic matter decomposition were estimated in sediments of Rhizophora apiculata plantations (6, 8 and 35 years old) in the lower Mekong delta, Vietnam.... -
Bioremediation of oil spills in mangrove and salt marsh habitats in tropical...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
This three-year project (1995-1998) assessed short term effects of commonly transported oils and in situ bioremediation on tropical Australian mangrove and salt marsh habitats.... -
The influence of mangrove biomass and production on biogeochemical processes...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
The physiochemical and biogeochemical properties of mangrove forests in different macrotidal coastal settings were measured. The forests were: a dense Aegiceras corniculatum... -
Accumulation of carbon in mangroves of Malaysia
Australian Institute of Marine Science
The flux of organic material between land, ocean and atmosphere was estimated for three different aged previously logged forests. Sediment nitrogen and carbon flows are... -
Decomposition processes in mangrove mud in the Fly River estuary, Papua New Guinea
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Microbial productivity, nutrient chemistry and rates of nutrient regeneration were examined in muds of different mangrove forests in the Fly Delta, Papua New Guinea. Three... -
