What is Understanding Mangrove Ecosystems about?
Mangroves are tropical marine trees that have special aerial and salt-filtering tap roots that allow them to thrive in brackish water, which is saltier than freshwater but not as salty as seawater. Mangroves are commonly planted in coastal areas and can serve as natural protections from disasters like tsunamis. There are several mangrove tree species found worldwide that prefer different salinity levels and locations relative to fresh water sources or wave exposure.
