Systems Ecology and Resource Management

•Can a mangrove forest degrade and still keep its functions ?•How fast does a mangrove forest develop or rehabilitate ?•Which floral, faunal and environmental factors and processes characterise a functional mangrove forest ?

•Which continuous and stochastic events shape a mangrove forest ?•How stable is a dynamic (mangrove) ecosystem ?•Under which scenarios can a mangrove forest resist and under which scenarios does it disappear ?

•Which governance structure and stewardship is needed to increase the social‐ecological resilience of mangrove forests ?
