Abstract:
... Assessing factors affecting growth and mortality of mangrove seedlings, the critical transition between propagule dispersal and recruitment to the sapling state, is crucial to understand and predict the fate of mangrove forests in our changing climate. This work aimed to understand seedling’s responses to contrasting temperature and precipitation regimes and analyze consequences for the persistenc ...
