Field Notes

Why coastal forests are so important

The Valdivian Temperate Rainforest can be found along the coast of Chile in South America. These native rainforests have largely been cleared for agricultural use, leaving the land degraded.
Bako National Park Mangrove Forest is located on the island of Borneo in the state of Sarawak, Malaysia. Mangrove forests thrive in brackish water environments and are characterized by salt-tolerant trees and shrubs with complex root systems that extend above the water's surface.
