Morphometric Study on the Leaf Width of the Seagrass, Halodule in Relation to Density, Exposure, Light and Temperature in the Central Visayas, Philippines

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

The study was designed to validate the hypotheses that the leaf widths of Halodule differ between depths (intertidal and subtidal), density and light intensity in three sites in Central Philippines. The sites were Bantayan Beach, Banilad Beach, and Tubod Beach. Shoot density was determined by counting the shoots/1m 2 quadrat; the ImageJ software was applied to measure the leaf width of the samples; Hobo pendant data loggers (model UA-002-08) were used to measure light intensity and temperature. Keywords: Seagrass, Morphometric, leaf width, Halodule
