Black Mangrove Leaves: Entire; opposite; oblong to elliptic; evergreen; leathery; petiole very short; light gray to whitish on the underside and dark green and glabrous on the upper side. Tear ‐ shaped propagules

MANGROVE ECOLOGY AND THEIR IMPORTANCE TO THE ENVIRONMENT AND NEIGHBORING MARINE COMMUNITIES MANGROVE LIFE CYCLE Mangroves

The importance of mangrove swamps is well established in regard to shoreline erosion control and ecological productivity. They function as nurseries and adult habitat for shrimp and recreational fisheries, exporters of organic matter to adjacent coastal food chains, and enormous sources of valuable nutrients. Their physical stability helps to prevent shoreline erosion, shielding inland areas from severe damage during hurricanes and tidal waves. Mangrove’s Importance
