Uncovering Mangrove Resilience: Salinity Conditions and Freshwater Recovery
Amidst the waves' roar and the mangroves' silence, Rhizophora apiculata, known as the true mangrove, stands tall. This plant is not only a silent witness to the dynamics of coastal ecosystems but also a symbol of resilience and adaptation. In a recent study by Universitas Sumatera Utara, Indonesia, forester Prof. Mohammad Basyuni delves deeper into how this species struggles and survives in challenging environments such as high salinity and freshwater recovery.
