Ngebuked, Ngaraard State, Babeldaob island, Palau: the mangroves of Babeldaob Island, form a robust ecological architecture with zonal stratification - seaward pioneers like Sonneratia alba and Avicennia alba give way to mid-zone Rhizophora mucronata and R. apiculata with prop roots, then inland Bruguiera gymnorhiza featuring knee roots, and Lumnitzera littorea, among up to 18 species. This structure enables sediment trapping, erosion control, habitat provision for crabs and fish, and reef protection.

Mangroves consist of various species, including Rhizophora (red mangroves), Avicennia (black mangroves), and Laguncularia (white mangroves). Mangroves are coastal ecosystems found in tropical and subtropical regions, characterized by salt-tolerant trees and shrubs that thrive in intertidal zones. They play a crucial role in the environment by providing habitat for diverse wildlife, stabilizing shorelines against erosion, and acting as natural filters that improve water quality. Mangroves also serve as rich fishing grounds, supporting species such as shrimp, crabs, and juvenile fish, which rely on these habitats for breeding and shelter. Additionally, they help mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon, making them vital for both biodiversity and human livelihoods.

The Madu Ganga (Madhu River) originates near Uragasmanhandiya in the Galle District, before widening into the Madu Ganga Lake at Balapitiya, Southern Province. Sri Lanka is the tropical Indian Ocean island formerly known as Ceylon, situated off the southeastern tip of India, renowned for its tea, rubber and precious stone production throughout the world.

Mengellang, Ngarchelong State, Babeldaob Island, Palau: the mangroves of Babeldaob Island, Palau, form a robust ecological architecture with zonal stratification: seaward pioneers like Sonneratia alba and Avicennia alba give way to mid-zone Rhizophora mucronata and R. apiculata with prop roots, then inland Bruguiera gymnorhiza featuring knee roots, and Lumnitzera littorea, among up to 18 species spanning 33 km² of dense forests. This structure enables sediment trapping, erosion control, habitat provision for crabs and fish, and reef protection.

Ngebuked, Ngaraard State, Babeldaob island, Palau: tilt mangroves along the water's edge (Rhizophora mucronata) - Mangroves in Palau form dense coastal forests characterized by stilt roots, prop roots, and pneumatophores that stabilize trees in tidal mud and withstand strong currents. This “architecture” creates a layered structure: tall Rhizophora with arching prop roots at the seaward edge, mixed species inland, and salt-tolerant Bruguiera and Sonneratia where soils are calmer. These root systems trap sediment, protect shorelines, and support rich marine life.
