About the product

Mangrove forests form a dynamic ecosystem, rich in resources and serving multiple ecological functions and have traditionally supported a variety of human settlements. But they are now threatened with severe damage or destruction through unrestricted commercial exploitation and reclamation. This publication examines a broad range of human-mangrove relationships around the world and the associated problems of development.
