There are many different threats on mangroves leading to a rapid decline of this ecosystem. One of the most important anthropogenic threats is wood harvesting. It is known that harvesting affects the amount of large woody debris (LWD) in mangrove forests. But the effects of a change of this important habitat on biodiversity are poorly understood. I...

... Langira the pieces of LWD per hectare were relatively equal among the intertidal zones. For Laulua the abundance of wood differed widely with the highest abundance in the high intertidal to the lowest in the low intertidal ( Figure 10). The volume of large woody debris (LWD) did not differ significantly between the two sites (P=0.0770) and within the sites. ...

Context 4
... area of Rhizophora stylosa per hectare in Langira did not differ much among the intertidal zonation and the transects ( was not recorded in the low intertidal and showed highest basal areas in transect 1 of the high and transect 3 of the mid intertidal (Figure 13 C). ...

... animal abundance and species richness in large woody debris (LWD) and roots was higher for LWD than for roots showing a high significance (P<0.001 for both) (Figure 15 and Figure 16). ...

... were no roots found above the ground in the high intertidal at Laulua. However comparing the mid intertidal and low intertidal, there is quite no significant differences among the two sites (P mid = 0.1277, P low = 0.0298) ( Figure 18). The species richness of the roots did not vary within the sites but among them with Langira being significantly higher (P=0.0332). ...

Although among the zones where roots were found, there was no significant difference of the species richness between the two sites (P mid = 0.1072, P low =0.0974) (Figure 19). ...
