Abstract
Mangrove vegetation has a very complex function for human life now and in the future. Therefore protecting mangrove areas by preventing damage and reforesting in mangrove areas that have improved degradation must continue. The purpose of this study is to identify changes in mangrove areas for five years, as well as their impact. A literature review of previous research studies used to assess the impact of a decrease in the mangrove area, along with conservation strategies. The results showed that the degradation of mangroves for land conversion can result in decreased carbon stocks in sediments, changes in abiotic conditions in the media, a decrease in the number of fish catches, the occurrence of abrasion and a decrease infauna of the Mollusca group association. Integrated coastal management should pay attention to the sectoral dimension, dimensions of science and ecological dimensions.
Highlights
Mangrove Ecosystem has an important role as a supporter of life in coastal areas which are of ecological function as a provider of nutrients for marine life, the breeding and care a wide variety of organisms that live in the open sea, prevention of the occurrence of coastal erosion, breakwaters, carbon sinks, and others [1]
The methods used are literature studies, by identifying the impact of the conversion is based on research that has past, to get the mangrove ecosystem conservation strategies based on the study of literature
The results showed that the land conversion of mangrove ecosystem carbon storage capacity
Summary
Mangrove Ecosystem has an important role as a supporter of life in coastal areas which are of ecological function as a provider of nutrients for marine life, the breeding and care (nursery grounds) a wide variety of organisms that live in the open sea, prevention of the occurrence of coastal erosion, breakwaters, carbon sinks, and others [1]. The existence and condition of mangrove ecosystems are more critical with increasing population and decreasing awareness of the coastal environment. As in several regions in Indonesia degradation of mangrove forests in the form of conversion into residential land, ponds, and others. According to Kusmana et al [2], the causes of the degradation of mangrove ecosystems include: (1). The transformation/conversion of mangroves to ignore the environment, (2). Pollution, such as oil, heavy metals, and (3) Illegal logging
