- 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.
- Observation After 12.5 months, 31% of relocated mangrove trees survived.
- 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.
