Ecological models and GIS maps of macroalgae, as bioindicator for ecological status of Hormozgan rocky shores

In this study a total of 75 species were identified, from which 17 species, 9 genes and 6 families; belonged to Green Algae, 18 species, 7 genes and 4 families; belonged to Brown Algae, and 40 species, 18 genes and 11 families; belonged to Red Algae. From total times spent for sampling, it was determined that at lengeh harbor with 6 species, had the lowest diversity of green algae. The species diversity of brown algae at Michael location with 10 species each; had the highest, and Tahooneh location with 5 species; had the lowest species diversity. Species diversity of red algae at Michael location with 28 species; had the highest, and Sayeh Khosh location with 13 species; had the lowest diversity. From all locations where sampling took place, the highest species diversity regarding Time and Space for all three groups of algae; were associated to Late February (20th. Feb. ), and late March(20th. March). Coverage data of macroalgae and Ecological Evaluation Index indicate a high level of eutrophication for the Saieh khosh, and Bostaneh, They are classified as zones with a bad and poor ecological status. It has been proved that concentrations of biogenic elements and phytoplankton blooming are higher in these zones. The best values of the estimated metrics at Tahooneh and Michaeil could be explained with the good ecological conditions in that zone and the absence of pollution sources close to that transect . The values of abundance of macroalgae and Ecological Evaluation Index indicate a moderate ecological conditions for the Koohin, Lengeh and Chirooieh.

Fisheries profile mapping of coastal districts in Maharashtra state through GIS

In recent times, GIS is being increasingly used as a decision support system for management of fisheries and aquaculture. It provides new innovative approaches of the dynamic relations that characterize this sector. In this context, a study is conducted based on the secondary data of a major maritime state, Maharashtra, where mapping of fisheries profile of coastal districts in the state is performed through GIS tool having critical geographic dimensions. This paper aims to map information of the state which can be used for the purpose of planning and decision making as each aspect of map has a different component involved. For this purpose, at the core of the system, the data were accessed and integrated from different sources mainly from the five coastal districts of Maharashtra state. Data were brought in tabular form through Microsoft Excel and then joined to Map info Professional version 8.0 GIS software was used with the digitized map of Maharashtra state to enable mapping. This was further synchronized and integrated to generate four thematic maps searchable on several criteria. Map 1 contains the searchable criteria as regards to the fish growth for the year 1997-2004 and fish seed production for the year 2003-04. Map 2 contains fisher population along with their occupation for the year 1992. Map 3 contains brackish water and shrimp farming production and culture area. Map 4 contains infrastructural facilities which include type of boats etc. With this mapping, planners and various stakeholders have accessible information as regards to the various components of fisheries in the state of Maharashtra.

Digital elevation models and GIS for watershed modelling and flood prediction-A case study of Accra Ghana

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Digital Elevation Models (DEM) can be used to perform many geospatial and hydrological modelling including drainage and watershed delineation, flood prediction and physical development studies of urban and rural settlements. This paper explores the use of contour data and planimetric features extracted from topographic maps to derive digital elevation models (DEMs) for watershed delineation and flood impact analysis (for emergency preparedness) of part of Accra, Ghana in a GIS environment. In the study two categories of DEMs were developed with 5 m contour and planimetric topographic data; bare earth DEM and built environment DEM. These derived DEMs were used as terrain inputs for performing spatial analysis and obtaining derivative products. The generated DEMs were used to delineate drainage patterns and watershed of the study area using ArcGIS desktop and its ArcHydro extension tool from Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI). A vector-based approach was used to derive inundation areas at various flood levels. The DEM of built-up areas was used as inputs for determining properties which will be inundated in a flood event and subsequently generating flood inundation maps. The resulting inundation maps show that about 80% areas which have perennially experienced extensive flooding in the city falls within the predicted flood extent. This approach can therefore provide a simplified means of predicting the extent of inundation during flood events for emergency action especially in less developed economies where sophisticated technologies and expertise are hard to come by. © 2009 Springer Netherlands.

基于GIS的长白山森林资源动态与经营分析-以白河林业局为例

本文结合野外调查和森林经营资料，以GIS为核心技术，综合空间分析与多种统计方法，研究了采伐干扰下白河林业局森林资源的动态变化，并使用FoREsTA严森林资源经营管理决策支持系统进行模拟，对多种采伐方案进行了系统的研究。该研究对指导整个长白山区的采伐经营，保护森林资源，实现森林生态系统科学经营与景观管理具有重要的理论意义。主要结论如下：①采伐活动在一定时间内改变植物种群的生态位，伐后10年7个树种的生态位宽度升高并逐渐高出原始林的生态位宽度。其生态位重叠从采伐后至伐后5年降低，以后逐渐升高，20年时与原始林基本相同；伐后灌木种群的生态位宽度与生态位重叠都增大，伐后巧年逐渐降低，伐后20年与原始林基本相同。②采伐强度影响植物群落的多样性，10％采伐强度采伐干扰的乔木的多样性伐后先降低再逐渐增加，20％和30％采伐强度采伐干扰的乔木的多样性随时间变化没有明显的规律；10％与20％采伐强度的灌木的多样性伐后先升高再降低，30％采伐强度的灌木多样性伐后先减少再增加；在所有采伐干扰中，草本层的多样性自伐后5年起逐渐升高，伐后20年，多样性基本趋于稳定。与原始林的多样性相比，10％的采伐强度可以增加乔木、灌木和草本的多样性，20％采伐强度增加了灌木的多样性。③经过13年经营，白河林业局森林林龄、单位蓄积和郁闭度较高等级的森林面积减少，较低等级的森林面积增加。林分质量下降。④经过13年，林业用地景观更加破碎，复杂程度降低，人类的干扰程度增强；基于景观划分的经营类型出现较大差异。⑤利用FoREsTA严决策支持系统进行采伐决策时，应该根据资源分布选择不同的采伐方案。从景观经营的角度，森林景观空间结构方案以及森林景观空间结构方案与实际木材采伐方案相组合后的方案更具有参考价值。
