Presentation on theme: "Mangrove /Mangal Values."— Presentation transcript:

1 Mangrove /Mangal Values

2 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

3 Basin Mangrove

4 Riverine Mangrove

5 Fringing Mangrove

6 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?
