新豐紅樹林浮游矽藻多樣性調查

Survey on Diversity of Planktonic Diatoms in Sinfong Mangrove, Taiwan

國內有關紅樹林矽藻相關研究甚少，本調查係針對新竹縣新豐紅樹林的浮游矽藻進行採集鑑定，並建立了矽藻名錄及環境因子資料庫，做為未來的監測研究參考。已鑑定出矽藻65屬136種，其中以Nitzschia屬15種多樣性最高。

There has yet to be a study that has specifically explored the diatom species population in Taiwanese mangrove forests. The present study investigates the diversity of planktonic diatom species and water quality environmental factor parameters from the Sinfong Mangrove forest in Sinfong Township, Hsinchu County, Taiwan. Furthermore, we established a dataset for diatom and related environmental data to serve as a reference for future monitoring research. In this study, 65 genera and 136 species of planktonic diatoms were identified, among which 15 species of Nitzschia were the most diverse taxon group.
