The concentration of nutrients (, , ,  and ) was determined (both water and soil samples). Based on the nutrient concentration, the comparison of mangrove biomass production, total organic matter and bacterial count were also investigated. The level of nutrient values and biomass production of mangrove and bacterial count in both water and soil samples followed the same trend. The results showed that the highest concentration of  (0.457\u2009\u00b1\u20090.051\u2009mg\/L),  (0.223\u2009\u00b1\u20090.018\u2009mg\/L),  (0.521\u2009\u00b1\u20090.038\u2009mg\/L), \u2009=\u2009P (0.242\u2009\u00b1\u20090.049\u2009mg\/L) and \u2009=\u2009Si (4.094\u2009\u00b1\u20090. 095\u2009mg\/L) were found in the water samples from station S\u20101, while the lowest values of  (0.063\u2009\u00b1\u20090.007\u2009mg\/L),  (0.0124\u2009\u00b1\u20090.001\u2009mg\/L),  (0.053\u2009\u00b1\u20090.003\u2009mg\/L), \u2009=\u2009P (0.012\u2009\u00b1\u20090.002\u2009mg\/L) and  (0.713\u2009\u00b1\u20090.009\u2009mg\/L) were recorded in station S\u20108. The order of nutrient values and bacterial count in the water and soil samples was same: S\u20101\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20105\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20103\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20106\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20104\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20102\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20107\u2009&gt;\u2009S\u20108.\n                    <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">\n                      <jats:italic>Avicennia marina<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:styled-content>\n                    was the only species found in all stations therefore; this species was considered for the assessment of the biomass of above\u2010 and belowground parts. The highest biomass (aboveground parts; 131.23\u2009\u00b1\u20092.09\u2009Mg\/ha, belowground parts; 139.86\u2009\u00b1\u20092.57\u2009Mg\/ha) was recorded at station S\u20101. The lowest biomass (aboveground parts; 119.72\u2009\u00b1\u20091.99\u2009Mg\/ha, belowground parts; 127.13\u2009\u00b1\u20092.01\u2009Mg\/ha) was found at station S\u20108. The analysis of organic matter (both water and soil samples) also showed the same trend. It was concluded that that mangrove biomass was nutrient\u2010dependent, confirming our hypothesis that \u201cmangrove biomass could depend on the availability of nutrients.\u201d Mangrove ecosystem plays an important role in coastal and marine food webs and is closely connected to the well\u2010being of coastal communities. Therefore, the mangrove ecosystem is mainly included in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement (climate change mitigation) in this decade. This study is in line with SDGs 12 (Responsible consumption and production of food), 13 (Climate action), 14 (Life below water) and 17 (Partnerships with the goals). The mangrove plants convert carbon dioxide (toxic form of carbon) in its useful form (biomass), and in addition, the mangrove ecosystem serves as a food and nursery area for fish and shellfish fisheries. Therefore, this research promotes the role of the mangrove ecosystem to benefit the blue economy and mitigate climate change. It was concluded that the abundance of bacteria and the biomass of mangroves depend on the availability of nutrients. Therefore, the results of this study strengthen our hypothesis. In the future, this study could serve as a reference study for blue carbon sequestration in the mangrove ecosystem.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ece3.71697","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,4]],"date-time":"2025-07-04T03:15:08Z","timestamp":1751598908000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Determination of Nutrients, Biomass, and Bacterial Quantification in Different Mangroves Sites: A Comparative Study on Nutrients Dependent Biomass Production"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4340-7885","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sadar","family":"Aslam","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Tropical Oceanography, South China Sea Institute of Oceanology Chinese Academy of Sciences  Guangzhou China"},{"name":"Innovation Academy of South China Sea Ecology and Environmental Engineering Chinese Academy of Sciences  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"You\u2010Shao","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Tropical Oceanography, South China Sea Institute of Oceanology Chinese Academy of Sciences  Guangzhou China"},{"name":"Innovation Academy of South China Sea Ecology and Environmental Engineering Chinese Academy of Sciences  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev\u2010marine\u2010010213\u2010135020"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/f9100596"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2017.00971"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nclimate3326"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1365\u20102435.13753"},{"issue":"10","key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","first-page":"25","article-title":"The Nitrogen Cycle: Processes","volume":"3","author":"Bernhard A.","year":"2010","journal-title":"Players, and Human"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11274\u2010011\u20100979\u20109"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cub.2021.09.024"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/srep27468"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ecolind.2022.109292"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0246263"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467\u2010021\u201027857\u20106"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.20886\/jphka.2008.5.4.317-328"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ngeo1123"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12237\u2010015\u20109993\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmars.2021.652615"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.rhisph.2023.100749"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10750\u2010017\u20103331\u2010z"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1890\/0012\u20109658(1999)080[2193:EONEOW]2.0.CO;2"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.catena.2019.04.018"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chemosphere.2017.06.060"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2016.00903"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.2111321118"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7717\/peerj.14587"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/plants7020041"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_27_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1365\u20102745.13398"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_28_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1023\/A:1008119611481"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_29_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1001\u20100742(09)60118\u20102"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_30_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/conl.12060"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_31_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ecss.2010.03.021"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_32_1","volume-title":"Protocols for the Measurement, Monitoring and Reporting of Structure, Biomass and Carbon Stocks in Mangrove Forests","author":"Kauffman J.
