Description
Summary:Mangrove forests are a community of tropical and subtropical beach vegetation, capable of growing and developing in tidal areas. This study aims to obtain information on the type and density of mangrove species by using remote sensing applications and to obtain mangrove distribution profile based on tidal. This research has been conducted in Bangkobangkoang Island Tupabbiring Sub-district of Pangkep Regency in September-October 2016. This research covers species inventory, mangrove density level using Landsat 8 image with Acquisition 6 June 2016 and mangrove distribution based on sea tides. The results showed that mangrove vegetation density conditions in Bangkobangkoang island were generally in good condition. The types of mangroves on the island of Bangkobangkoang are Rhizophora stylosa, Rhizophora apiculata, Rhizophora mucronata, Sonneratia alba, and Avicennia marina. The dominant mangrove species are Rhysophora stylosa and Rhizophora apiculata. Mangrove distributed at the highest tide with Rhyzophora stylosa type will be submerged while at lowest tide generally no mangrove is submerged except on the western island with the same type of Rhyzophora stylosa Key words: Mangrove, Landsat-8, Density, Ddistributions profile
