Life in the mangrove by APHUNU DANIEL]
Mangroves are trees and shrubs that grow in coastal saline habitats in the tropics and subtropics. They produce leaf litter that decomposes into detritus, providing a food source for marine life. Mangroves have adaptations like pneumatophores and salt glands that allow them to survive in salty, low-oxygen soil. Their seeds and propagules can disperse long distances in water. Mangrove ecosystems support a diverse array of wildlife like birds, snakes, turtles and more.
Grupo 5
The Arcornocales Natural Park in Los Barrios has an area of about 167,767 hectares and contains extensive cork forests and rich wildlife. Millions of migratory birds rest there and endangered species like the Iberian Lynx and Eurasian Wolf live in the park. The Palmones River marsh is an important spot for over 170 bird species, including flamingos, spoonbills, and ospreys. Vegetation in the marsh includes plants adapted to the saline soil like sea holly and Carpobrotus edulis.

The document concludes with descriptions of a wind park project and how photovoltaic solar panels work to harness energy from the sun.
REDWOOD NATIONAL & STATE PARKS CALIFORNIA, UN Evironment Program
Redwood National and State Parks in northern California protect over 56,000 hectares of coastal temperate rainforest dominated by massive coast redwood trees. The park contains the largest remaining groves of these ancient trees, some over 2,000 years old and over 110 meters tall. Over 400 bird species and populations of mammals such as black bear, Roosevelt elk, and gray whale inhabit the diverse ecosystems within the park, which includes prairies, forests, streams, and coastal habitats. The park was established through the early 20th century to protect the remaining redwood groves and now includes four state parks managed cooperatively with the National Park Service.
Endangered animals
The document summarizes information about three endangered animals - the loggerhead turtle, greater one-horned rhino, and Canary Islands quail. It provides details on the loggerhead turtle such as its scientific name, physical attributes, habitat locations, diet, and threats like bycatch. For the greater one-horned rhino, it mentions the species was once widespread but was driven close to extinction by hunting, but numbers have increased due to conservation efforts. Very little is known about the extinct Canary Islands quail as it only inhabited some Canary Islands and there are no remains.
Rasgalegas 100515060425-phpapp02 english
The document summarizes key aspects of Galician estuaries in northwest Spain. It describes their formation through tectonic, fluvial, and climatic factors. It also discusses the estuaries' rich marine resources and ecosystems, which are supported by nutrient-rich upwelling waters. These ecosystems include bivalve mollusks like mussels and clams that are important to the local economy and biodiversity, including birds that feed on invertebrates. However, biodiversity is at risk due to overexploitation, development, and invasive species.
Puerto Rco’s Dry Forest
The Guánica Dry Forest, Elfin Forest and Tamarindo Lagoon are located in southwest Puerto Rico. The Guánica Dry Forest was designated a forest reserve in 1919 and UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1981 due to its scientific diversity. Over 119 investigations have studied the area's flora, fauna, archaeology, ecology and fisheries. The forests and lagoon are home to many endangered plant and animal species that have adapted to the area's lack of water, high temperatures and sandy soil conditions.
Mystery nº 8 from spain
This natural park in Spain is home to over 200 species of animals and plants, including 51 mammal species. It was designated a UNESCO biosphere reserve and contains some of the oldest pine trees in Spain that are over 1,300 years old. Though some mammal species became extinct due to human activity, deer and other animals have been reintroduced. The park experiences dramatic climate changes and is an important watershed.
Guanica Dry Forest Presentation
The Guánica Dry Forest, Elfin Forest and Tamarindo Lagoon are located in southwest Puerto Rico. The Guánica Dry Forest is the driest forest in Puerto Rico and contains over 550 plant species adapted to its dry climate. Tamarindo Lagoon only fills with heavy rain and dries up completely otherwise. The Elfin Forest near the lagoon contains miniature versions of plants limited by wind, lack of water and salt. Fauna includes birds, reptiles and the endangered Puerto Rican frog that breeds in the lagoon.
Spanish flora and_fauna
The document summarizes the unique environmental features of the Sierra Nevada mountains and surrounding areas in Spain. It notes that the region has over 2,000 plant species, including 66 endemic species, due to its varied climates and past connection to Africa. It is also home to unique animal species like the Alpine accentor that lives in the high mountains year-round. The region has preserved its historic villages and agriculture despite its arid climate and isolation between the mountains and sea.
Ashok mangroves
This document discusses mangrove ecosystems, including their distribution, habitat characteristics, and importance. Mangroves are found between 32°N and 38°S, with the largest areas in Indonesia, Nigeria, Australia and Mexico. They are adapted to survive in saline, muddy soils and anoxic conditions. Mangroves protect coastlines, serve as nurseries for fisheries, and support diverse marine and terrestrial wildlife. Common mangrove plants belong to the Rhizophora and Avicennia genera. Mangrove forests are ecologically important and provide resources to coastal communities.
Insular fauna
This document summarizes the key characteristics of insular fauna for several islands, including Continental islands like Britain and Ancient continental islands like Madagascar and New Zealand. It notes that Continental islands were connected to mainland during ice ages, so their fauna is similar to the mainland. Oceanic islands like Galapagos and St. Helena never had land connections and thus have unique fauna, often with flightless birds and reptiles adapted to the island environment. Specific details are then provided on the fauna of Galapagos, St. Helena, Madagascar, New Zealand, and Britain.
Kumana national park
Group no -05 discusses Kumana National Park in Sri Lanka. Kumana National Park is located 391 km southeast of Colombo along Sri Lanka's southeastern coast. It is an important bird sanctuary and wetland that provides feeding and resting habitats for many threatened species. However, the park faces threats from poaching, gem mining, logging, agriculture, and invasive species. Conservation efforts have included managing grazing lands, conserving small water ponds, and erecting electric fences to protect wildlife.
