“…Probably because of the high concentration of phosphorus (up to 53.20 mg/l), different species of alga covered large surface areas of some of the sinkholes. The erosion of phosphate from rocks in the study area seem to be the main origin of this phosphate contamination (Rasoloariniaina et al 2015).…”

“…The usage of tamarind differs between the coast and the plateau, especially for juice production, charcoal production, as well as medicinal use. Juice production in the littoral is rarely practised because of the poor water quality and the high salinity content in the ground water (Rasoloariniaina et al, 2014). Charcoal production is less intensive on the plateau compared to the littoral, which is probably the result of environmental education efforts from NGOs in this region.…”
