• Mangrove forests are unique ecosystems found in coastal regions where saltwater and freshwater mix.
• These forests are dominated by mangrove trees, which have special adaptations like aerial roots and salt-filtering systems to thrive in saline and waterlogged conditions.
•  Found in tropical and subtropical coastal areas.
•  Trees have stilt roots or breathing roots for support and oxygen.
•  Act as a natural barrier against coastal erosion and storms.
•  Rich in biodiversity, providing habitat for fish, crabs, and migratory birds.
• Protect coastlines from flooding and erosion.
•     Support livelihoods through fishing and ecotourism.
• Act as carbon sinks, helping to combat climate change.
