- W1590425631 abstract "The word mangrove is derived from the Portuguese word mangue, which means tree, and the English word grove, which means a stand of trees (Odum & McIvor 1990). Genera of mangrove can be traced back as far as 55 million years ago (Raymond & Philips 1983). Making up this group of halophytes (plants that grow in saline soils) are thirty-six species from twelve genera and eight different families (Lugo & Snedaker 1974). Mangrove communities serve as an interface between terrestrial, fresh water and marine environments. They are complex ecosystems which function in nutrient cycling an carbon exchange, and serve as a habitat and breeding ground for a number of marine species. Of the types of coastal vegetation in Florida, mangroves are the dominant type (Ball 1980, Proffitt & Devlin 1991). Over 500,000 acres (202,347 hectares) of mangrove forests remain in the coastal areas of Central and South Florida. Eighty-percent of these are under some type of control for conservation or preservation (Florida Dept. Environ. Prot. website 2001). Prior to the late 1960’s, thousands of acres of mangrove forests were destroyed as the result of habitat alterations caused by land development. Natural disturbances have also destroyed or altered these habitats. Since the late 1960’s there has been much debate and a heightened awareness of the importance of these communities in maintaining species diversity. As a result, mitigation of mangroves has become an important issue in the state of Florida (Odum & McIvor 1990). One of the earliest mangrove restorations in Florida (1982) was a mitigation project in the Windstar Golf Course and Country Club development in southwestern Florida (C. E. Proffitt, personal communication 2001)." @default.
