Burrowing crabs in arid mangrove forests on the southwestern Arabian Gulf: Ecological and biogeographical considerations
( Elsevier B.V. , 2020 , Article)Many species of mangrove crabs are essential in the formation of mangrove ecosystems, and the bioturbation resulting from the excavation of their underground chambers is directly correlated with substrate oxygenation and ... -
Diversity of benthic macrofauna and physical parameters of sediments in natural mangroves and in afforested mangroves three decades after compensatory planting
( Springer , 2018 , Article)Mangroves in the Arabian Gulf are under pressure from land use change, leading to compensatory planting at sites without natural mangroves. In this study, we examine the potential long-term success of this form of ... -
History of a disaster: A baseline assessment of the Wakashio oil spill on the coast of Mauritius, Indian Ocean
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Oil spills from tanker ships provide adverse and irreversible impacts of a pollutant over coastal and marine environments. Using Sentinel-1 and 2 satellite images, this baseline paper presents the detection, assessment, ... -
Molluscan diversity influenced by mangrove habitat in the khors of Qatar
( Springer , 2021 , Article)The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar is a rapidly developing region within the Arabian Gulf, where monitoring of changes in benthic biodiversity and its functioning is needed. The influence of mangroves and seasonality ... -
Relationship Between Tree Size, Sediment Mud Content, Oxygen Levels, and Pneumatophore Abundance in the Mangrove Tree Species Avicennia Marina (Forssk.) Vierh
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Mangroves are important in protecting and stabilizing coastal zones. Pneumatophores of the mangrove species Avicennia marina can form a large aboveground complex of aerial roots, which are important in supporting mangrove ... -
Retrieval of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the Arabian Gulf water of arid region by Sentinel-2 data
( Elsevier B.V. , 2023 , Article)Suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in water increases temperature and turbidity, limits the photosynthesis of aquatic plants, and reduces biologically available oxygen. It is important to study SSC in the coastal waters ...
