Resilience to Hurricanes Is High in Mangrove Blue Carbon Forests

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 3, March 2025.
Mangrove forests are an important part of global carbon cycling and are also subject to disturbances from large storms. While initial carbon losses are high following hurricane landfalls, in this work we show that these forests recover to their baseline conditions within 4 years.

Plant dispersal across the tropical Atlantic by wind and sea currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This review brings together evidence on the monophyly and ages of angiosperm lineages ranging across the tropical Atlantic with data on the direction, strength, and speed of sea currents and wind jets across that ocean. Mainly for pragmatic reasons (data

Mangrove forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Pojam mangrove odnosi se na kategoriju biljaka koji objedinjuje vrste prilagođene na slana staništa koja su periodički poplavljena. Šume mangrova rastu u tropskim i suptropskim područjima, a najobilnije su razvijene na obalama Azije, Afrike i Južne ...

Wood anatomy of Laguncularia racemosa (Combretaceae) in mangrove and transitional forest, Southern Brazil

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2018
Mangroves represent an environment of great heterogeneity and low diversity of plant species that have structural and physiological adaptations linked to a high salinity environment. Laguncularia racemosa is a typical tree species in mangroves and transitional zones. This study aimed to compare the wood anatomy of L.

Tracking rates of ecotone migration due to salt-water encroachment using fossil mollusks in coastal South Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We determined the rate of migration of coastal vegetation zones in response to salt-water encroachment through paleoecological analysis of mollusks in 36 sediment cores taken along transects perpendicular to the coast in a 5.5 km2 band of coastal ...

Demonstration of wetland vegetation mapping in Florida from computer-processed satellite and aircraft multispectral scanner data [PDF]

open access: yes
The success of remotely mapping wetland vegetation of the southwestern coast of Florida is examined. A computerized technique to process aircraft and LANDSAT multispectral scanner data into vegetation classification maps was used.
