ASSESSMENT ON SEAGRASS COVER AND DENSITY AT MAGYI (SHWETHAUNGYAN) COASTAL AREA, AYEYARWADY REGION
Abstract
- In the present study, analysis of seagrass cover and density have been carried out at MaGyi (Lat. 17° 04' 25" N, Long. 094° 27' 55" E), October, 2019. Three 100m-transect are laid perpendicular to the shoreline and each transect is at a distance of 50m from each other. A total of three transects is generally enough in a given area, thus seagrass cover and density are recorded from a total of 33 quadrats and 12 quadrats respectively. 20.06 % of seagrass are covered in this study area. Average shoot density in a site was 107 and 1280 total shoot density in a site.
