Are Urban Mangroves Emerging Hotspots of Non-Indigenous Species? A Study on the Dynamics of Macrobenthic Fouling Communities in Fringing Red Mangrove Prop Roots

2022-03-21

Abstract excerpt

Urbanization represent a radical transformation of natural habitats that alters all the biotic and abiotic properties governing ecosystems. Urban expansion often results in oversimplified communities, where most specialists decline or disappear and a few generalist or exotic species become dominant. The consequences of urban expansion in mangrove forests are understudied, although these systems have been altered b...
