In Suriname, coastal ecosystems such as mangrove forests and wetlands serve as nurseries for many species and have rich biodiversity. At the same time, they provide natural defence against flooding and coastal erosion and thus protect the coast and its inhabitants against the impacts of climate change.
Mangrove ecosystems and wetlands are therefore of crucial importance to climate change adaptation efforts in the coming decades.
Unfortunately, especially in the western part of the country and in the vicinity of the capital, Paramaribo, these ecosystems are threatened and degraded by infrastructure development, disturbance of natural hydrology or inadequate water management, pollution, and overexploitation. Here a manmade hydrological canal fragments coastal wetlands in the coastal district of Coronie. December 2023.
