MangroveWatch

Description :

 Mangroves and tidal saltmarshes are amongst the most endangered marine wetland habitats worldwide. 

‘MangroveWatch’ is a program that has been established to address the urgent need to preserve and protect threatened tidal wetland ecosystems as well as addressing both scientific and environmental management needs.
