ABSTRACT
Previous studies have found positive
correlations between mangrove forest extent and fisheries yield
but none of these univariate relationships provide a reliable estimate
of yield from mangrove area. This study tests the hypothesis that
the nursery ground value or natural production of fish and shrimps
is related to the hydrogeomorphology settings of mangrove forests
by using multivariate redundancy analysis (RDA).
The hydrogeomorphological metrics of five mangrove forests imaged
by satellite were measured using Geographical Information System
(GIS).
The RDA indicated that the metrics, including mangrove area,
multiple waterways and creeks, mangrove-river interface, waterway
surface area and sediment organic matter, influenced the diversity
and abundance of fish and shrimps. Larger values of these metrics
increase the abundance of economically important fish species of
the families Lutjanidae, Haemulidae, Serranidae and economically-important
penaeid shrimps. Sediment organic matter also significantly correlates
with the distribution and abundance of fish that feed off the bottom
such as the Leiognathidae, Clupeidae and Mullidae. Mangrove forests
with combinations of large mangrove area, river surface area, high
stream ordering and longest mangrove-river interface will provide
greater role as nursery grounds for fish and shrimps.

ABSTRAK
Kajian terdahulu
mendapati terdapat korelasi positif antara hutan bakau dan taburan
ikan, tetapi bukan semua hubungan univariat tersebut dapat memberikan
anggaran yang sebenar hasil tangkapan dari kawasan paya bakau. Kajian ini menguji hipotesis bahawa nilai nurseri atau pengeluaran
semula jadi ikan dan udang adalah berkaitan dengan pemboleh ubah
hidrogeomorfologi hutan bakau melalui analisis lewahan multivariat
(RDA).
Metriks hidrogeomorfologi lima hutan
bakau dengan pengimejan satelit diukur menggunakan Sistem Maklumat
Geografi (GIS).
RDA
menunjukkan bahawa metrik tersebut termasuk keluasan
hutan bakau, beberapa anak sungai dan jeram, interfasa paya bakau-sungai,
kawasan permukaan sungai dan bahan organik sedimen, mempengaruhi
spesies dan kelimpahan ikan dan udang. Nilai yang besar bagi metriks
ini akan meningkatkan spesies ikan yang
penting daripada segi ekonomi terutamanya daripada famili Lutjanidae,
Haemulidae, Serranidae, dan udang penaeid. Bahan sedimen organik juga jelas mempunyai hubung kait dengan taburan
dan kelimpahan ikan yang makan di permukaan dasar seperti Leiognathidae,
Clupeidae dan Mullidae. Hutan bakau dengan kombinasi keluasan
paya bakau, kawasan permukaan sungai, bilangan anak sungai, dan
interfasa bakau-sungai yang tinggi akan
memberikan peranan yang lebih besar sebagai kawasan nurseri untuk
ikan dan udang.
