A device and method applied to seaweed transplantation on tropical islands and reefs

Abstract

The invention discloses a device and method for transplanting seaweed on tropical islands and reefs. It includes a basket frame and ground nails for fixing the basket frame, the basket frame includes an upper top frame, a lower bottom frame and a connecting rod connecting the upper top frame and the lower bottom frame, the upper top frame is provided with an upper grid The aperture of the upper grid allows seaweed plants to pass freely, the lower bottom frame is provided with a lower grid, and the bottom of the basket frame is movably connected with ground nails. The distance between the upper grid and the lower grid is the same as that of the seaweed. The height of the underground section matches. The seagrass transplanting device and method applied to tropical islands and reefs of the present invention can significantly improve the efficiency of seagrass plant collection, temporary cultivation, transplantation unit fabrication, transportation, and transplantation implementation, etc. Fixation and binding of coral sand substrates, and effective against storms on tropical islands and reefs, improving the survival rate of seagrass transplants.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ecological engineering, and in particular relates to a device and method for transplanting seaweed in the intertidal zone, which are applied in ecological restoration projects of tropical islands and reefs. Background technique: [0002] The seagrass bed ecosystem is an important ecosystem along the coast of islands and reefs. It has important ecological functions of protecting islands and reefs. It is extremely important for reducing damage from storms and typhoons, mitigating ocean currents and wave erosion, replenishing lost sand and rocks, and stabilizing the structure of islands and reefs. It also provides habitats, protected areas, breeding and feeding places for many important organisms including endangered species, and can provide resources such as fisheries and medicinal organisms, as well as rich and diverse underwater landscapes. However, the seagrass ecosystem is one of the most fragile ecosy...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

First of all, the coral debris and coral sand substrate are loose, coupled with high wind and high waves, try the existing plant fixation method to transplant seagrass on tropical islands and reefs, common storm surges will stir up the transplanted seagrass from the sediment Therefore, the fixation of the transplanted unit has become one of the key technical issues to be solved urgently; secondly, for seagrass transplantation on tropical islands and reefs, it is necessary to collect seaweed seedlings and carry out long-distance transportation. During the long-distance transport of seagrass, seagrass plants are mostly transported by single plant, and the existing plant transplantation methods are mostly single plant transplantation, resulting in low efficiency of seagrass transplantation and difficulty in forming a large scale. It is not easy to obtain seedlings in the supply area of ​​species, and efficiency is very important in seagrass transplantation on tropical islands and reefs. From seagrass plant collection, temporary cultivation, transplantation unit production, transportation and transplantation implementation, an efficient method is urgently needed. Therefore, How to improve the efficiency of seagrass transplantation is the second key technical problem to be solved urgently
