The MANGROVE Project has published a new report, a Multidisciplinary situation appraisal of mangrove ecosystems in Thailand, which is now available for download.
The Nakhon Si Thammarat Province from the southern part of Thailand has been selected for the appraisal due to their highest priority and score provided by expert evidence. The 3 communities have been selected to represent different characteristics of the mangrove ecosystem; (1) Ban Kong Khong, Pak Phanang Fang Tawan Ok Subdistrict, Pak Phanang District to represent a community with healthy and old mangrove forest, (2) Ban Pak Nam Pak Phaya, Ta Sak Subdistrict, Mueang District to represent a community with new mangrove plantation areas from abandoned shrimp ponds and (3) Ban Talad Has, Pak Phun Subdistrict, Mueang District to represent a community with new mangrove area from a new sedimentation area, respectively.
