Mangrovology  Under the Sea   By Kayde Minervino, Anthony Boccabella, Holly Ahronian and Abby Dawson   Hey this is Mangrovology our mission is to help save the Mangroves. During the 5-day period we our going to give the environment some help. Admission: $200 per person, $550 for family deal ( Between 4-7 members) Day 1: Snorkeling Day 2: Planting Mangrove Day 3: Tours around the Sundarbans Day 5: Animal Safari == On day 1 we will be going snorkeling in Mangroves and we will see the Mangrove roots and all the baby creatures living in the Mangrove roots. On day 2 we will be helping the environment by planting baby Mangrove trees to help the Mangroves grow. Then on day 3 we will be taking tours around the Sundarbans to see the beautiful sight we have. Then on day 4 we will be cleaning up the shores of the Suburbans helping to reduce any trash left behind by tourists. Lastly on day 5 we will be going on safari showing most animals around the Sundarbans and their beautiful homes! Then our fabulous journey will have to come to an end! Hope to see you soon in the Sundarbans!!! ==

Thanks! All profits made will be donated to help support the mangroves and animals living there among the mangroves like the manatees!!!!! Thanks for your support!!!
Check out this video for a sneak peek at some of the animals we'll be showing!!!!   []

The salinity levels in the Suburbans are higher in the places that have less fresh water and lower in the parts that get more monsoon rain, melted glacier water, and so on. Salinity is how much salt there is in the water. With more fresh water(no salt) in the oceans/bays/seas, there is less salinity. When there is more fresh water added to the salt water in the oceans/bays/seas, there is less salt water and more fresh water, which means less salinity in the water.

Interactions In The Ecosystem

Humans have a lot of interactions with the Sundarbans ecosystem. One of them is fishing. fishing has a large impact on the ecosystem because we need fish to survive, so we do it a lot. We get money and/or food from fishing(depending on if you sell some or not). We humans also cut down lots of mangrove trees and make shrimp farms where they used to be. The people who do this also get food and/or money from doing this, but there are only so many mangrove trees in the world. If they all get cut down, they will never exist again-they will all just be old, forgotten memories. People could also over fish, which is very bad because there won’t be as many fish because most of them will already be cooked up and/or eaten, canned, and sold to buyers. Another way people interact in the ecosystem is planting more mangrove trees. This is VERY good for the ecosystem because the mangrove trees only grow in a few parts of the world, and they provide shelter for small ocean animals like crabs and small fish. They also hold islands together with their long, thick, strong roots. They sometimes even build their own little islands overtime because of their many roots so close together, tiny bits of dirt and sediment get stuck there and eventually form a small island.

= Tips for the Future = = = = In the Sundarbans the fresh water supply is very important because all the animals and plants depend on the water. Salinity has risen thought so the fresh water supply has decreased. So what you can do to help is you can collect some water by... = = You can make a well = = Collecting rainwater = = Spring water = = In order to make these sources of water safe to drink you have to purify your water. Doing this will help the Sundarbans but most importantly its helping the ecosystem by preserving the water. = = =
