Corals of the genus Porites are a locally abundant component of the epibiont community on mangrove prop roots at Calabash Caye, Turneffe Atoll, Belize [PDF]
Mangroves are generally regarded as inhospitable for corals, but recent reports suggest they provide ecological refuge for some species. We surveyed diverse mangrove habitats on Turneffe Atoll, Belize, documenting 127 colonies of Porites divaricata (Thin

How South Pacific mangroves may respond to predicted climate change and sea level rise [PDF]
In the Pacific islands the total mangrove area is about 343,735 ha, with largest areas in Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Fiji and New Caledonia. A total of 34 species of mangroves occur, as well as 3 hybrids. These are of the Indo-Malayan assemblage (

Eastern United States: Potential Range for Ecologically Based Coastal Defenses in 2100
These maps show where black mangroves can potentially thrive along the US east coast by the end of the 21st century under several climate scenarios. Similar work was done for oyster reefs and saltmarshes. ABSTRACT Eco‐defenses (mangroves, oyster reefs, and saltmarshes) are ecosystems that can help to mitigate the effects of natural hazards and erosion ...

Anatomia Floral de Rhizophora mangle L.
Foram feitos estudos da vascularizacao de Rhizophora mangle L., que conduziram a conhecimentos que demonstraram alguma afinidade com a familia Combretaceae e tambem a certeza de que o ovario e bicarpelar. Foram feitos, tambem, estudos anatomicos e pode-se constatar a presenca de laticiferos do tipo articulado em todas as pecas florais e nas ...

Abstract Introduction Limited seed availability constrains mangrove restoration, but vegetative propagation through cutting and juvenile cutting (mini‐cutting), supported by indole‐3‐butyric acid (IBA), a synthetic auxin that stimulates adventitious rooting, offers a scalable solution for Conocarpus erectus.

The roots of the red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle, provide a nursery habitat for many species, due to the tridimensional structure they provide, which delimits an area difficult to access to large predators.

Abstract This study isolated hydro‐morphodynamic mechanisms leading to mangrove propagule anchoring and seedling dislodgement under erosive flows. Red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle) propagules self‐anchored in estuarine sediments over 112 days under simulated tidal pulses.
