Mangroves are important coastal habitats for several reasons:
They protect coastlines from erosion by reducing the impact of waves and storms.
They provide a habitat for a diverse range of species, including fish, birds, and marine mammals.
Mangroves serve as nurseries for many marine species, offering shelter and food for young organisms to grow and thrive.
They help improve water quality by filtering pollutants and trapping sediments, thereby maintaining the health of coastal ecosystems.
Mangroves also play a role in carbon sequestration, helping to mitigate climate change by storing carbon in their biomass and sediments.
