Functionality of restored mangroves: A review (2008, background): “These figures are within the range of published mangrove growth rates (7–12 m for height, and 5–15 cm for diameter) in Asia and Pacific (Watson, 1931; Durant, 1941; Putz and Chan, 1986; UNDP/UNESCO, 1991; Devoe and Cole, 1998; Table 1 Yield table data for mangrove plantations at Gazi Parameters…”
Ecosystem service values for mangroves in Southeast Asia: A meta-analysis and value transfer applicatio (2012, background): “We recognise, however, that there are differences in the way in which development pressures affect different biomes, and indeed that mangroves face unique pressures (Duke et al., 2007).”
Long-term retrospection on mangrove development using transdisciplinary approaches: A review (2008, background): “It has been estimated that approximately 75% of tropical coasts world-wide were once fringed with mangroves (Chapman, 1976), but at present a world without mangroves is no longer an unrealistic prospect (Duke et al., 2007).”
A Review of Wetland Remote Sensing (2017, background): “Some authors argue that mangrove forest will be lost soon, without appropriate and effective actions [205,207].”
Mangrove management for climate change adaptation and sustainable development in coastal zones (2018, neutral): “…wood products have resulted in deforestation rates of 1 – 2% per year — equivalent to about one-third of mangroves worldwide over the past 50 years — with the greatest losses occurring in the Indo-Malay Philippine Archipelago (Alongi, 2002; Duke et al., 2007; Hidayati, 2000; Polidoro et al., 2010).”
Molecular ecology and biogeography of mangrove trees towards conceptual insights on gene flow and barriers: A review (2008, background): “…faunal organisms (Nagelkerken et al., 2008; Cannicci et al., 2008) and providing essential functions and services to tropical and subtropical zones and their populations (Kristensen et al., 2008; Walters et al., 2008), mangroves are one of the world’s most threatened ecosystems (Duke et al., 2007).”
Deforestation in the Ayeyarwady Delta and the conservation implications of an internationally-engaged Myanmar (2014, background): “Mangrove forests are recognized as one of the most threatened ecosystems globally (Duke et al., 2007), and the Ayeyarwady Delta deserves attention as one of the most threatened mangrove deltas in the world.”
Faunal impact on vegetation structure and ecosystem function in mangrove forests: A review (2008, background): “Hence, both ecological studies and management of mangroves should be done with benthic biodiversity in mind (Duke et al., 2007; Ellison, 2008).”
