چکیده | ||
A study of substantial anthropogenic related pollution in the Coastal Samut Prakarn Province (Thailand) was carried out focusing on the Bang Pu Nature Reserve (remnant mangrove wetland) using a remote sensing (geospatial) technique. Statistical regression models were developed between biochemical parameters of sample point and related reflectance data obtained from satellite imagery (Landsat TM). Change detection showed a significant increase in various water bodies over a period of a decade and significant increase in analyzed pollutant levels. The paper highlights the advantages of baseline data obtained and its significance towards a holistic approach to mitigating coastal pollution combining sustainable conservation and enhanced nature education through a significant ecosystem bio-diversification. Within the framework of the approach a buffering zone based on a constructed freshwater-fed wetland is to be introduced to serve as an effective pollution mitigating area serving the local community which is in serious need of such an environmental vehicle. | ||
