- Observation Mangrove tree mortality was 24% in the first week after relocation.
- Observation Mangrove tree mortality increased by a further 43% over the next three months.
- Association Shallow tidal plots had higher mangrove survival than deeper plots.
- Association Tidal inundation duration significantly affected mangrove leaf health.
- Association Initial tree height showed no significant association with mangrove survival or performance.
- Intervention effect Freshwater treatment had no significant effect on mangrove survival or performance.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that salvaging larger mangroves is technically feasible.
