Mangrove Forests Demonstrate Surprising Storm Resilience in Changing Climate: Study

Mangrove forests buffer coastlines from flooding while acting as valuable carbon sinks, but scientists are concerned about the impacts that more extreme and frequent storms caused by climate change are having on these ecosystems. In a new study, scientists from Yale School of the Environment discovered that mangrove forests could actually be more resilient to […]
