Exploring Interstitiality with Mangroves: Semiotic Materialism and the Environmental Humanities

open access: yes, 2023
Mangroves thrive in intertidal zones, where they gather organisms and objects from land, river, and ocean. They develop into complex ecologies in these dynamic in-between spaces.

Variations in water use by a mature mangrove of Avicennia germinans, French Guiana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the tropical intertidal zones, little is known on water uptake by mangroves. Transpiration rates are generally measured at leaf level, but few studies exist on water use at tree or stand levels.

Divergent allometric strategies and biomass allocation patterns of four key tree taxa in subtropical China

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionAccurate forest biomass estimation must simultaneously satisfy the statistical additivity of components and resolve the resource-allocation trade-offs that unfold during tree ontogeny, yet conventional models often fail on both counts and ...

Infestation of Mangroves by the Invasive Moth Hyblaea puera (Cramer, 1777)(Lepidoptera: Hyblaeidae) [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2019
We report the first known infestation of mangroves by the invasive moth Hyblaea puera in Paraná, Southern Brazil. The infestation caused massive defoliation of Avicennia schaueriana trees, affecting approximately 20,000 hectares of mangroves.
