Establishing mangrove forest products for eco-tourism activity at Kota Kinabalu Wetland Ramsar Site, Sabah. Malaysia

Mangrove forests are found ubiquitously across the global landscape and are known to assume a pivotal role in supporting the surrounding ecosystem. The study purposely estimates the ability of absorption in CO2 towards the subject area to understand the precautions of visitors in future demand. By l...
