| Description |
Mangrove ecosystem is considered ecologically and economically important perhaps due to its high productivity. However, due to the lack of proper scientific knowledge as well as the rapid increase in various developmental pressures along the coastal region of India, mangrove resources have been over exploited. This has lead to tremendous degradation of not only mangrove forests but also several mangrove dependent systems. It would be worthwhile to peep into various socio-economic and also ecological gains from mangroves in India as well as the pressures developed as a result of human interference.
