Strategic Objectives
• Master the botanical requirements of key woody mangrove species.
• Navigate the unique soil mechanics of intertidal ecosystems.
• Implement proven silviculture techniques for maximum seedling survival.
• Design resilient coastal landscapes that combat erosion and rising seas.
The Core Challenge
Traditional reforestation often fails in coastal zones because the complex interplay of salinity, tides, and anaerobic soils is misunderstood.
