dc.description.abstractThe study was carried out in the stunted mangroves of the Sarstun River ecosystem on the Caribbean coast of Guatemala. The low basin of this river in the Department of Izabal marks the border between Guatemala and Belice. The goal of this research was to characterize the stunted mangrove of the Sarstún River ecosystem, in order to propose a management model for the protection, conservation and use of this ecosystem. To characterize the ecosystem the environmental variables that regulate it, environmental variables were determined, to establish its current stage, the mangrove structure and composition was determined to establish its biophysical stage, and the composition of the fish community present in the ecosystem was analyzed, to know their spatial and temporal distribution, and a management model for the protection, conservation and use of the mangrove is proposed. Five study sites with two transects and three parcels each were selected. In each parcel samples were taken for physico-chemical analysis of sediments and interstitial water were made, mangrove morphometric measures and surface water quality analysis. Fish samples were also taken to quantify the number of individuals of each species, in order to determine their spatial and temporal distribution. With the information obtained, correlation analysis, analysis of variance, comparison of means and analysis of site similarity were made. This led to the conclusion that environmental variables limit the mangrove development and show a trend to a reduction in the case of precipitation and days of rain in the area. The mangrove structure and composition remain with little variation, it is evident that exists a high connectivity in the ecosystem. The number of fish species and the amount of organisms of each species is higher in the rainy season. From these results it is proposed a management model oriented to maintaining the ecosystem functions under an organizational structure in the human sphere, in a type of consortium integrated by users, administrators and the scientific community.en
