Mangrove Trees in Their Ecosystems

Cover Art for Mangrove Trees in Their Ecosystems

Coastal fish swim through water cleaned by the tangled roots of a mangrove forest, crabs munch on mangrove leaves, and monkeys swing from branch to branch. When storms hit, the important plants block winds, waves, and even floods that might otherwise damage the life just inland. Mangrove trees are vital to their ecosystems, maintaining the habitats that are crucial to the life and breeding grounds of many coastal creatures. Uncover the truth about this important keystone species, explore how mangrove trees shape entire ecosystems, and learn what's at risk if the magnificent mangrove disappears. Approachable text and engaging images bring this timely topic to life.
