Abstract

This study helps to look at the importance of the mangrove ecosystems. Mangroves owe their existence to the mangrove ecosystem. Mangrove habitats are among the most intriguing places on earth and are special places on the threshold of time, where the life of the sea and the life of the land merge in a biological blur. The continuous world-wide depletion of mangroves through conversion of mangrove lands to other uses is alarming. Present mangrove management techniques have often failed to retain the original level of the resource. The dynamic nature of the ecosystem needs to be duly considered and an integrated management approach on a sustained yield basis, under the umbrella of a total coastal zone management plan for the country concerned, needs to be initiated with the creation of true mangrove reserves to conserve biodiversity at large.
