Fig. 7: Mangrove loss and gain hotspots.
From: Drivers of global mangrove loss and gain in social-ecological systems
Location of mangrove geomorphic units where percent mangrove net and gross loss in 2007–2016 is significantly (two standard deviations) less (bright) or more (dark) than the country average (a; n = 399 and 525 mangrove geomorphic units larger than 50 km2 across 53 and 58 countries for net and gross loss, respectively); and percent mangrove net and gross gain in 2007–2016 is significantly more (bright) or less (dark) than the country average (b; n = 126 and 522 mangrove geomorphic units larger than 50 km2 across 33 and 57 countries for net and gross gain, respectively). There are some overlapping hotspots; seven net loss dark spots are under gross loss dark spots; one net gain bright spot is under a gross gain bright spot. Details of each hotspot and the likely reasons are listed in Supplementary Tables 1 and 2. Countries with hotspots are labelled by country code.
