Mangrove forest seaweed bed coral reef ecological connectivity indoor simulation system

Abstract

A mangrove forest sea grass bed coral reef ecological connectivity indoor simulation system disclosed by the present invention comprises a frame, a main cylinder, a wave making pump, a lamp, a bottom cylinder, a water pump, a protein separator and a temperature control device, the main cylinder is arranged on the frame, the main cylinder comprises a coral area, a sea grass area and a mangrove area, the coral area is deeper than the sea grass area and the mangrove area, and the water pump is arranged on the bottom cylinder. An overflow area is arranged on one side of the coral area, and the overflow area and the coral area are separated through a fish comb. The mangrove forest-sea grass bed-coral reef indoor simulation system is constructed, and important reference and scientific basis can be provided for clarification of the principle and mechanism of ecological connectivity and overall protection and function recovery of an ecological system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ecological simulation equipment, in particular to an indoor simulation system for ecological connectivity of mangrove seagrass beds and coral reefs. Background technique [0002] Mangroves, seagrass beds and coral reefs are collectively known as the three typical marine ecosystems, which provide numerous ecological services for human survival and development, but they are also in a particularly vulnerable state. Mangroves grow in the intertidal zone of the tropics and subtropics, and are located in the special zone at the junction of land and sea. Because of their unique morphological structure and physiological and ecological characteristics, they have multiple functions such as wind and wave protection, embankment protection, and environmental purification. At the same time, mangroves are also waterfowl. An important habitat and a place for the growth and reproduction of fish, shrimp and crab shells. S...

Problems solved by technology

However, the breeding objects of the existing indoor mariculture systems are relatively single, and most of them are corals and fishes. Seaweed and mangroves are not valued because of their low ornamental value.

Because mangroves, seagrass and corals have different requirements on the growth environment, there are certain technical difficulties in simultaneously cultivating mangroves, seagrass and corals in the same culture system, so there are few reports
