Integrated Approach �Contrast to “no engineering” �Don’t constrain mangroves behind seawalls
Lewis, 2004 1. Get the hydrology right first. 2. Do not build a nursery, grow mangroves and just plant some area currently devoid of mangroves (like) a convenient mudflat). There is a reason why mangroves are not already there or were not there in the recent past or have disappeared recently. 3. Once you find out why, see if you can correct the conditions that currently prevent natural colonization of the selected mangrove restoration site. If you cannot correct those conditions, pick another site. .
