What is Importance of Mangroves in Coastal Areas about?
Mangroves are tropical trees that grow in coastal areas in brackish water, which is saltier than freshwater but not as salty as seawater. They have special aerial and tap roots that allow them to thrive in this environment. Mangroves serve as natural barriers against disasters like tsunamis and help protect coastal communities. There are several mangrove species around the world that have different preferences for salinity and location relative to fresh water or waves.
