He notes that while land reclamation and freshwater reservoir construction have caused mangroves to decline during the past 70 years, Singapore&#8217;s mangroves, which cover 8.1 sq km, remain a key resource in addressing the climate emergency.<\/p>\n<p>A\/P Friess explains that mangroves can tolerate floods, heavy waves, and water with high salinity. They also provide home to a large and varied selection of land and water dwelling animals. In addition, they support our livelihoods, and in Singapore can be valued at US$46.2 million annually. Mangroves also produce compounds with pharmaceutical use, store atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions, protect against storms, and assist in adapting to rising seas.<\/p>\n<p>Read more about the many benefits of mangroves <a href=\"https:\/\/www.todayonline.com\/commentary\/commentary-fighting-climate-change-illnesses-why-mangroves-are-worth-celebrating-1953291\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Visit The Mangrove Lab, NUS led by A\/P Friess <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themangrovelab.com\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Visit the NUS Centre for Nature-based Climate Solutions <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nus.edu.sg\/cncs\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30826\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30826\" style=\"width: 1450px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30826 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/fass.nus.edu.sg\/srn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/07\/exploring-the-mangroves-of-moreton-bay.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1450\" height=\"1083\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fass.nus.edu.sg\/srn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/07\/exploring-the-mangroves-of-moreton-bay.jpg 1450w, https:\/\/fass.nus.edu.sg\/srn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/07\/exploring-the-mangroves-of-moreton-bay-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fass.nus.edu.sg\/srn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/07\/exploring-the-mangroves-of-moreton-bay-1024x765.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fass.nus.edu.sg\/srn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/07\/exploring-the-mangroves-of-moreton-bay-768x574.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1450px) 100vw, 1450px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-30826\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8216;Exploring the Mangroves of Moreton Bay, Brisbane, Australia&#8217;, from The Mangrove Lab, NUS (https:\/\/www.themangrovelab.com\/photos)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In &#8216;Commentary: From fighting climate change to illnesses \u2014 why mangroves are worth celebrating&#8217; (Today, July 2022), Associate Professor Daniel Friess (NUS Geography and Deputy Director of the NUS Centre for Nature-based Climate Solutions) discusses ten reasons to celebrate mangroves for International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem on 26 July.
