Global mangrove forests rebound, offering hopeful sign for climate and coastal resilience
Researchers at Tulane University have found that the world’s mangrove forests are no longer in decline and have shifted to overall growth in recent years. Using four decades of satellite data, a new study shows that natural regeneration, expansion into newly formed coastal habitats and conservation efforts have largely offset decades of mangrove loss, offering a rare conservation success story and a hopeful sign for climate resilience.
