• TITLE: Effects of Anthropogenic Pollution on Mangrove Biodiversity: A Review

  AUTHORS: Subodh Kumar Maiti, Abhiroop Chowdhury

  KEYWORDS: Mangrove Biodiversity; Trace Metals; Carbon-Sequestration; Pollution Sink; Mangrove Deforestation

  JOURNAL NAME: Journal of Environmental Protection, Vol.4 No.12, December 16, 2013

  ABSTRACT: Mangrove ecosystem is a very unique ecosystem in the Earth, which is under threat due to habitat loss, aquaculture expansion, overharvesting and increase of pollution load. In this review paper, world-wide status of mangrove habitat loss, role of mangrove to act as a sink of pollutants and carbon capture (carbon sequestration), accumulation and biomagnifications of heavy metals is discussed. Emphasis has been given to understand the effect of heavy metals, organic and inorganic pollutants on the mangroves and the natural ability of this ecosystem to tolerate the pollution load. Lastly the guidelines of mangrove research for the developing countries are also suggested.
