The arid mangrove forest from the Baja California Peninsula
represents a series of chapters devoted to the understanding of the
biodiversity and fisheries value of this critical habitat. The book
contents are devoted to making the reader aware of the great value
of the mangrove in relation to their conservation and management.
Mangrove forests in Mexico represent the northernmost populations
along Pacific coast, and thus they are likely to be sourced
populations for colonisation at higher latitudes as the climate
becomes more favourable. Today, these populations are relatively
small and fragmented and prior research has indicated that they are
poor in genetic diversity, but in the actual global warming
scenario, it is very likely that forest cover will increase and
genetic diversity will increase. Another relevant component of the
book will be the biodiversity inventory still in progress for many
biological groups and will be taken into account in the present
volume. The present volume will review and analyse some physical,
biological, and ecological factors that determine the success of
these communities and their use in conservation or fisheries
management. Marine Protected Areas include several of the mangroves
studied here and the presented information is critical for the
appropriate management. The book is organised in 10 chapters to
evaluate studies based on the value of the forest in arid zones of
the Baja California Peninsula and the surrounding areas worldwide.
This book will be essential to understand the mangroves along
North-western Mexico and will also be a critical consulting book
for the next generation of managers and nature lovers who want to
better understand our environment.
