Coastal Ecosystem Changes: Analysis of Snail Population after Mangrove Planting in the First Year

Abstract

One of the main indicators for assessing the effectiveness of mangrove planting in coastal ecosystem rehabilitation is monitoring the population of fauna that depend on their habitat, one of which is snails. This study analyzes the changes in snail population in coastal areas after mangrove planting in the first year. Specifically, this study will compare the snail population in areas where mangroves were planted with areas where mangroves were not planted as an effort to understand the initial impact of mangrove planting on the snail community. Using a comparative approach, this study was conducted on the beach of Tongo Village, Bone Pantai District, Bone Bolango Regency, Gorontalo Province. The research results show a significant difference in the presence of snail populations in areas where mangroves were planted compared to areas without mangroves. Additionally, the areas with mangroves also showed the presence of crabs as another species besides snails. This emphasizes the importance of mangroves as a supporting ecosystem for biodiversity in coastal areas.
