Sea-level rise may be the greatest threat to mangroves

Sea-level rise may be the greatest threat to mangroves -

Mangrove ecosystems are under threat from climate change. Initial research led by IUCN and three leading universities shows that most mangrove sediment surface levels are not keeping pace with sea-level rise.  The greatest impact will be on those mangroves where there is limited area for landward migration.
