Completed (successful/maintained)

Country: Thailand

Goal

Technique: Habitat conversion, hydrological restoration, planting After several failing attempts by the local villagers to replant mangroves due to the changed hydraulic conditions, a study was carried out on an abandoned, formerly intensively managed shrimp pond. Before planting, the abandoned shrimp pond was prepared by reopening the obstructing banks on all sides using heavy machinery. This increased greatly the frequency of tidal flooding. The seedlings of 4 different mangrove Spatial extent 6526 ha as reported. Reported project duration 1,0 year(s). Average survival 72,2% as reported.

A variable shows "pending" instead of a contribution when no domain area has been set for it yet — the share of the world a project touched cannot be computed without one. The health percentages are accurate regardless.
