Nueva experiencia en la restauración de manglares, playa Las Canas, La Coloma
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article reveals the results of a research which is still in to experimental stage. It is about the restoration of a large strip of the mangrove; from Las Canas beach to the Guamá river mouth, located in the southern part of the island in La Coloma neighbourhood, which has on extension of about 10 ha; due to the strong storms provoked by the hurricanes Isidore and Lily (2002) and Ivan (2004). A methodology was concerned for the restoration which includes the reforestation of the affected areas invaded by the Batis maritima specie. This has allowed the bettering the soil conditions in reference to the content of humidity and the decreasing of over salinity, this has favoured the establishment of a reforestation, which had been done from a communitarian rustic nursery, it was built near to the place, where the predominate species were: Avicennia germinans, in a greater extent because it is an hydrographical land, and a Laguncularia racemosa, were the substrate growths increases.
