Climate Change is Threatening Mangroves

Abstract

Grey Mangrove (Avicennia marina) in Sydney Olympic Park and nearby areas in eastern Australia appears to have been struggling to cope with climate change, particularly from extreme temperature events. This claim is based on the results of a 10-year study on the phenology of the Grey Mangrove, which was prompted by some prior observations that these mangroves had been flowering heavily, but had not been fruiting as successfully as they had in previous years.
