  • Mangroves with their prop roots help trap sediments and reduce coastal erosion.
  • As mangrove communities grow seawards, they etend the coastal land seawards.
  • It can affect the depth of coasts and has implications for port activities/coastal transportation.

LIMITATIONS:

-  however, young mangrove are very vulnerable, thus the help of the local people is needed to help take care for these your plants
