Abstract | Mangrove ecosystems are vital to coastal biodiversity, offering numerous ecological and socio-economic benefits, including shoreline stabilization, carbon sequestration, and habitat provision for diverse marine and terrestrial species. This study evaluates the conservation strategies employed for mangrove forests in Mumbai, Maharashtra, and assesses their ecological impact. Despite their importance, mangroves in Mumbai face threats from urban expansion, pollution, and climate change. Our research integrates field surveys, remote sensing data, and stakeholder interviews to analyze the effectiveness of current conservation measures, such as protected area designations, restoration projects, and community engagement initiatives. Findings indicate that while some strategies have successfully mitigated degradation and improved habitat quality, challenges persist, including inadequate enforcement and limited public awareness. The study highlights the need for enhanced conservation frameworks that incorporate adaptive management practices and robust community involvement. By understanding the ecological roles of mangroves and the effectiveness of conservation efforts, this research aims to provide actionable recommendations to safeguard these critical ecosystems for future generations. |
