Public Acess around the islands
Public Acess along the fringe
Island Typology subject to tidal inundation, dominated by red mangroves difference between mangrove fringe forests and overwash islands: latter, the entire island is typically inundated on each tidal cycle. They are often the site of bird rookeries
Integration of Hydrological, Ecological and Social Influence The design of pedestain boardwalks, and mangrove islands and the changing tides interacts well together.

Fringe Mangrove Typology
Mangrove in Basin Typology
Red mangroves dominate fringe forests, but when local topology rises toward the uplands, other species may be included in zones above the water line.
Here, natural patterns of freshwater discharge remain intact. Salinity drops during the wet season, when rains cause extensive freshwater runoff; Saltwater and Freshwater Meets. Most highly productive.
