Biodiversity of Mangroves Ecosystems

"Mangroves stand against hurricanes as a natural Sea Wall and dissipate most of its impact. The dense growth of mangroves saved thousands of kilometers of Sundarbans (West Bengal & Bangladesh) from the killer impact of Tsunami ."
— Dr. S. Z. Qasim

from tsunami whereas the neighboring areas in Tamil Nadu with no mangroves suffered severely.
