Dear colleagues,

At this moment I am making an inventory of current management activities of
mangrove ecosystems in Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The research
is comparable to the ITTO study 'The economic and environmental
value of mangrove forests and their present state of conservation (1993). 
Therefor I am seeking information on:

- the total area of mangroves in each of the above mentioned countries;

- socio-economic values of mangroves, managed for different
  uses (prawn, wood, rice and other products);

- ecological aspects of mangrove management.


I am especially interested in case studies in these countries.


All information is greatly appreciated.


Cheers,
