Mangrove /Mangal Values

Mangal variation falls into 3 categories Basin Mangrove Extensive, low energy Shallow estuary Riverine Mangrove Somewhat linear, subject to flooding Highly variable salinity Fringing Mangrove Linear & narrow, along coastal shores Oceanic salinity; exposed to storm surges

Basin Mangrove

Riverine Mangrove

Fringing Mangrove

Big Questions: Do mangroves subsidize (with nutrients) adjacent ecosystems in the habitat mosaic? Are mangroves nursery habitats for adjacent ecosystems? Do mangroves protect coastal (human) populations?
