    Can mangroves help combat sea level rise through sediment accretion and accumulation?
    (Universiti Malaya, 2015) Hoque M. M.; Abu Hena M. K.; Ahmed O. H.; Idris M. H.; Hoque A. T. M. Rafiqul; Billah M. M.
    Mangroves have substantial roles to induce sedimentation in the vulnerable coastala regions, which subsequently helps to combat climate change induced impacts like sea level rise. Although Sarawak has numerous pristine estuarine mangroves, studies on the roles of these mangroves in regards to sediment deposition are scanty. Therefore, this study was carried out to determine the sediment accretion and accumulation pattern of pristine Sibuti mangrove using tiles and sediment traps from January to December 2013.
