INTODUCTION
Indonesia coastline : 95.181 km,
highest rank of world's mangrove
rich countries, covering 22.6% of
global total mangroves (Giri et
al., 2010)
3.7 million ha of mangrove
forests and 5.5 million ha
mangrove plantation areas, with
35 mangrove species (MMAF,
2004).

As coastal wetlands, mangroves are
threatened by SLR (Mcleod et al.,
2010)

Mangrove can adapt concerning SLR
if elevation change rate > SLR rate

Mangroves have to maintain positive surface elevation change equivalent to or
exceeding the rates of SLR.
The factors influencing soil elevation : auto compaction, decomposition of organic
matter, root growth, water storage in sediments (shrink-swell) and tidal flooding

CONCLUSION
Over two years of observation, rate of surface elevation change (0.7
cm/year) exceeded the current SLR rate (0.3 cm/year) mangroves can
keep pace with SLR
Soil surface elevation in restored mangroves increased over time at a
comparable rate as in natural forests. This finding shows the recovery of
restored mangrove ecosystems in response to accelerating sea level rise
through maintenance of soil surface elevation.
Hydrological (seasonal pattern) and biological processes (root production)
are important factors controlling elevation.
