Mangroves are woody plants that grow at the interface between land and sea in tropical and
sub-tropical latitudes where they exist in conditions of high salinity, extreme tides, strong …

This review assesses the degree of resilience of mangrove forests to large, infrequent
disturbance (tsunamis) and their role in coastal protection, and to chronic disturbance events …

Mangroves, the only woody halophytes living at the confluence of land and sea, have been
heavily used traditionally for food, timber, fuel and medicine, and presently occupy about …

The response of mangroves to high rates of relative sea level rise (RSLR) is poorly
understood. We explore the limits of mangrove vertical accretion to sustained periods of …

The carbon burial in vegetated sediments, ignored in past assessments of carbon burial in
the ocean, was evaluated using a bottom-up approach derived from upscaling a compilation …

Much uncertainty exists about the vulnerability of valuable tidal marsh ecosystems to relative
sea level rise. Previous assessments of resilience to sea level rise, to which marshes can …

Mangrove ecosystems are threatened by climate change. We review the state of knowledge
of mangrove vulnerability and responses to predicted climate change and consider …

Our current knowledge on production, composition, transport, pathways and transformations
of organic carbon in tropical mangrove environments is reviewed and discussed. Organic …

Inter-related and spatially variable climate change factors including sea level rise, increased
storminess, altered precipitation regime and increasing temperature are impacting …

Increases in concentrations of greenhouse gases projected for the 21st century are
expected to lead to increased mean global air and ocean temperatures. The National …
