Mangrove Above-Ground Biomass and Production Are Related to Forest Age at Low Isles, Great Barrier Reef.

Above-ground biomass contributes a large proportion of mangrove carbon stock; however, spatio-temporal dynamics of biomass are poorly understood in carbonate settings of the Southern Hemisphere. This influences the capacity to accurately project the effects of accelerating sea-level rise on this important carbon store. Here, above-ground biomass and productivity dynamics were quantified across mangrove age zones dominated by , spanning a tidal gradient atop a reef platform at Low Isles, Great Barrier Reef, Australia.

Eco-friendly structures for sustainable mangrove restoration.

Mangrove forests around the world are under significant pressure from climate change (e.g., rising sea levels), and human-related anthropogenic activities (e.
