This paper presents findings from a study of 2 coastal sites in the Philippines that are renowned and often showcased as success stories in community-based, mangrove reforestation and management. These cases are especially intriguing because local tree planting and management emerged in both areas ...
The favored but unsuitable Rhizophora are planted in sandy substrates of exposed coastlines instead of the natural colonizers Avicennia and Sonneratia. More significantly, planting sites are generally in the lower intertidal to subtidal zones where mangroves do not thrive rather than the optimal middle...
One of the first planting sites is in Hagonoy, Bulacan in the Philippines, where 8,000 mangrove trees will be planted. The remaining 12,000 trees will be planted in Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam. Fostering stronger partnerships to go “Gr...

While climate factors were found to influence mangrove growth on the continental scale, regional and local fac...
mostly in East and Southeast Asia (China, 55 studies; Vietnam, 20 studies; Philippines, 17 studies) (Fig.1). Mangroves were mostly restored with one species (175 cases), rather than two or more species (43 cases). The most commonly planted species wereRhizophora apiculataandRhizophora mucro...
“We embarked on this tree-planting effort because many of our communities in South-east Asia depend on mangroves for food, protection and income. As always, we strive to make a meaningful impact, both in service and sustainability.”

More significantly, planting sites are generally in the lower intertidal to subtidal zones where mangroves do not thrive rather than the optimal middle to upper intertidal levels, for a simple reason. Such ideal sites have long been converted to brackishwater fishponds whereas the former are open...
