All those that were listed are the organisms found around or in the mangroves they all produce off of each other or some produce off of the mangrove the process of all this consuming and producing and decomposing is pretty cool once you learn about it and pay attention too it. ]]> 2017-09-29 16:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192533874 jesz5733 https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192535225 Barnacles,oysters,mussels,sponges,worms,snails and small fish all live around the roots of the mangrove. The mangroves water contains crabs,jellyfish,and juvenile snappers,jacks,red drums and sea trout all live in the cool part at the bottom of the mangrove. The mangroves are fragile complex and dynamic ecosystem and are dependent on the inter-related, environment both, biotic and abiotic factors its climatic factors are rainfall and wind. ]]> 2017-09-29 16:44:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192535225 jesz5733 https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192536717 2017-09-29 16:47:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192536717 jesz5733 https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192537926 2017-09-29 16:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192537926 jesz5733 https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192539314 mangrove forests typically grow in tidal regions in tropical  and subtropical climates. Instead the region with expanding mangroves experienced fewer cold snaps periods when the temperature dips below 25 degrees. The mangroves can tolerate any season. It can also adapt to any harsh or not harsh season.

Mangroves also help prevent erosion by stabilizing sediments with their tangled root systems. They maintain water quality and clarity, filtering pollutants and trapping sediments originating from land. Mangroves are also important because they support threatened and endangered species.]]> 2017-09-29 17:15:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192547860 jesz5733 https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192552695 Threats to the mangrove are bad they are threatening to cut mangrove forests down because their "unproductive" and "smelly"  but they protect the organisms that live there they give them food and let them reproduce they also protect them from strong hurricane winds. Mangroves have become endangered because of people cutting them down but little do they know their cutting down the most important reproductive system in the world.]]> 2017-09-29 17:27:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/192552695 jesz5733 https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/193552014 2017-10-03 17:17:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jesz5733/dq3yqvdplkjd/wish/193552014
