Mangrove habitats are essential for preserving biodiversity, safeguarding coastal populations, lowering risks associated with climate change, and promoting environmental sustainability. However, especially in climate-vulnerable ...

Mangrove ecosystems play a vital role in coastal protection, biodiversity conservation, and climate change mitigation. However, these ecosystems are increasingly threatened by environmental stressors such as salinity ...

Mangrove ecosystems provide critical ecological, economic, and social services to coastal communities, yet have faced persistent and intensifying pressure from natural and anthropogenic activities for more than four ...

Mangrove restoration is widely executed to rehabilitate degraded coastal ecosystems; however, evaluations of the structural development and regeneration of restored species remain limited. Mandaitivu in Jaffna Lagoon is ...

Mangrove ecosystems are among the most efficient natural carbon sinks, playing a significant role in climate change mitigation through the sequestration and long-term storage of atmospheric carbon. These coastal forests ...

Microplastic (MP) pollution is an emerging concern due to its persistence and ecological impacts. Mangroves are particularly vulnerable because of their dense roots, high sediment retention, and proximity to human ...

Mangroves are highly effective carbon sinks, particularly for sequestering soil organic carbon (SOC) and regulating atmospheric CO₂ levels, thereby playing a vital role in mitigating climate change. However, the carbon ...

Current blue carbon frameworks emphasise carbon sequestration and under-evaluate the oxygenreleasing role, and hence capture only half of the biogeochemical contribution of mangrove ecosystems. The current study evaluates ...

Mangroves are among the most productive coastal ecosystems in the world, comprising unique plant species that play important ecological roles, provide ecosystem services, and deliver socioeconomic benefits. However, they ...

Mangrove ecosystems are critical to coastal environmental governance, supporting biodiversity conservation, climate resilience, and effective realization of the emerging human rights to a healthy environment. In Sri ...
