The study of water, soil, and air quality that effects the density of Caulerpa corynephora in the Khok Ok Mangrove Forest area, Hat Samran District, Trang Province. The objectives are as follows: 1. to study the water quality affects the density of Caulerpa corynephora in the Khok Ok mangrove forest area, Hat Samran district, Trang province. 2. to study the soil quality affects the density of Caulerpa corynephora in the Khok Ok mangrove forest area, Hat Samran District, Trang province. 3. to study the air quality affects the density of Caulerpa corynephora in the Khok Ok mangrove forest area, Hat Samran district, Trang province. 4. to study the growth of Caulerpa corynephora cultivated under controlled water quality conditions close to natural water in the Khok Ok area. By studying the quality of water, soil, air and the growth of Caulerpa corynephora from cultivation. From the study of soil quality, water quality and air quality in both areas is based on the hypothesis that the quality of water, soil and air affect the density of Caulerpa corynephora in the Khok Ok mangrove forest, Hat Samran District, Trang Province and Caulerpa corynephora grown by controlling the water quality to be close to nature will grow well. It was found that the area with the mixed mangrove forests had more minerals in the soil. The transparency value, the nitrate content and the oxygen content in the water are higher. And the higher light intensity of the air results in a higher density of Caulerpa corynephora. And from an experiment in raising Caulerpa corynephora using seawater from the Khok Ok mangrove forest, areas where more Caulerpa corynephora were found to grow most rapidly in the second week of cultivation.
