Example:

A mangrove is a tropical marine tree. Mangroves have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots

which enable them to thrive in brackish water. Brackish water is salty but not as salty as sea water.

Mangrove trees are commonly planted and found in coastal areas. Mangroves can serve as walls of

protection for natural disaster in coastal area like tsunami. According to BBC News, healthy mangrove

forests had helped save lives in the Asia disaster tsunami and people tended to respect these natural

barriers even more, especially after the tsunami.

Example:

There are several species of mangrove tree found all over the world. Some prefer more salinity, while others like to be very-close to a large fresh water source such as river. Some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. Some species have their roots covered with sea water every day during high tide. Other species grow on dry land but are still part of the ecosystem. The Times of India reported that rare species of mangrove had been found andwas also known as the looking-glass tree, probably because the leaves are silver-coated.
