Local positive feedback and the persistence and recovery of fringe Avicennia marina (Forssk.) Vierh. mangroves

While mangrove restoration efforts are reasonably successful, failure often occurs in high wave energy situations. Due to differences in wave energy, seedling mortality rates vary strongly with position on the intertidal flat between high water spring and high water neap elevations. However, a local...
