Initial approach to some principles in mangrove ecosystem management at Xuan Thuy National Park - Nam Dinh - 11


CONCLUSION, PROBLEMS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

1. Conclusion

Xuan Thuy National Park mangrove forest has a very diverse biological resource, according to previous research documents, quick surveys and quick interviews with experts in the field, showing that Xuan Thuy National Park mangrove forest has 2 types of sub-soil vegetation of mangrove forest, 8 types of plant communities, 181 species of floating animals, 112 species of floating plants, 156 species of fish, 219 species of birds and many other species. Of which, birds are the most numerous species, accounting for 26.94% of the total number of species.

The investigation results show that the composition of mangrove plants is relatively simple, consisting of only a few main species: Trang, Bần chua, Sú, Vết, Tra giá, Coc khen, Casuarina... but the composition in saltwater areas is lower than in brackish water areas because brackish water areas have low salinity, so they can easily adapt to more types of plants.

The comprehensive investigation of the service value of the forest ecosystem shows that the forest ecosystem has enormous value. Just a general assessment has shown the potential of the specific forest ecosystem: Every year, the forest ecosystem meets the value of about 270,101,000,000 VND/year (not including the value of wood and some other ecological values).

People mainly participate in income-generating activities from agricultural, forestry and fishery production, in which agriculture is the main production sector, but only to ensure food, while exploiting natural aquatic resources and fishing activities bring the main source of income for people here.

Initial approach to some principles in mangrove ecosystem management at Xuan Thuy National Park - Nam Dinh - 11

The management of Xuan Thuy National Park is facing many challenges: facilities, organizational structure of management, especially the role of people in management has not been enhanced, some management solutions are applied not according to ecosystem management methods.

Management issues are still heavily theoretical, and implementation still faces many difficulties. In particular, there are conflicts between the people and Xuan Thuy National Park. Management still overlaps between the National Park and Giao Thuy district.

Ecosystem management principles are effective tools in assessing the current state


The management of the ecosystem of Xuan Thuy National Park has clarified a number of ecosystem management solutions that need to be applied to ensure harmony between natural and social factors such as:

- Integrating management work and socio-economic development planning of Giao Thuy district

- Strengthen management capacity, resource monitoring capacity and scientific research for Xuan Thuy National Park staff.

- Develop and complete the zoning and planning of Xuan Thuy National Park, plan and implement Park management according to ecosystem management principles.

- Raise community awareness of RNM management, build dialogues with authorities, especially local planning agencies.

Although the boundaries of functional areas of Xuan Thuy National Park have been divided, it is necessary to disseminate more information to the people to contribute to better management of the RNM ecosystem.

2. Existence

Research on mangrove ecosystem management plays a very important role in the face of current environmental changes and impacts that change the ecosystem. Within the framework of the master's thesis, the topic only studies the general status of management along with the application of some principles in ecosystem management.

Due to time constraints, I found that my thesis still has some shortcomings that need further research:

- The topic has not yet delved into specific research on the structure of the ecosystem but only describes the basic components of the ecosystem.

- The functional potential of the mangrove ecosystem has not been fully assessed, only basic service value has been studied.

- Research on the current status of RNM ecosystem management only raises issues related to management, but has not focused on and deeply evaluated management issues associated with the principles of HST management.

3. Recommendations

To have a deeper assessment of the issue of mangrove ecosystem management as well as


In order to make realistic and feasible recommendations for the protection and sustainable development of the RNM ecosystem, further studies need to focus on the following directions:

- Study in more detail the structure of the RNM HST to have a basis for proposing appropriate KTLS solutions.

- Specifically study the social and environmental role of mangrove forests.

- Assess the environmental value of RNM and propose testing directions.

- Study biodiversity through some principles of biodiversity.

- Research on the structure and function of the RNM ecosystem.

In general, the initial approach to the principles of ecosystem management is a solution of scientific and practical significance in the conservation and sustainable use of local mangrove resources. It is recommended to conduct further research on the conservation of mangrove ecosystems.
