Biology of mangroves and mangrove Ecosystems
TL;DR: Mangroves are woody plants that grow at the interface between land and sea in tropical and sub-tropical latitudes where they exist in conditions of high salinity, extreme tides, strong winds, high temperatures and muddy, anaerobic soils, creating unique ecological environments that host rich assemblages of species.

A review of studies on Pichavaram mangrove, southeast India
TL;DR: The mangrove harboured a large number of juvenile fishes, especially during summer and post-monsoon, and 90% of the mangroves cover in the study area was degraded, suggesting possible factors that cause degradation of the ecosystem are detailed and remedial measures suggested.

Phenology, litterfall and nutrient resorption in Avicennia marina (Forssk.) Vierh in Gazi Bay, Kenya
TL;DR: Trees produced most new leaves when there were optimal conditions of runoff (nutrients), low evapotranspiration and reduced salinity during the rainy season and the average leaf longevity observed in the present study was approximately 11 months (1.1 turnover per year).
