Historical records can be invaluable information sources for baseline establishment, to undertake long-term study on mangrove dynamics and enhance the historical land cover and land-use dynamics of a country. In this study, we explore these untapped information reservoirs, used complementarily with remote sensing techniques, to explain the dynamics of the mangrove systems in Peninsular Malaysia. The archives in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Malaysia and Singapore were explored and mined for related information on the mangrove systems in Peninsular Malaysia from past centuries. Most historical records found in this study were used to validate the mangrove presence in Peninsular Malaysia since 1853 while two records from 1944 and 1954 were used to quantify the mangrove cover extent. A significant finding of this study was the oldest record found in 1853 that attested to the presence of a mangrove system on the mainland Penang of Peninsular Malaysia which was not identified again as such in records post-1853. Remote sensing data, specifically Landsat images, were used to determine the mangrove extent in Peninsular Malaysia for the years 1988, 1992, 2002, 2012 and 2018. By complementing the historical records with remote sensing information, we were able to validate the mangrove presence in Peninsular Malaysia since 1853 and determine the gain\/loss of mangrove systems over the last 74 years. Peninsular Malaysia has lost over 400 km2 of mangrove forests, equivalent to 31% of its original extent between 1944 and 2018. This is a significant loss for Peninsular Malaysia which has less than 1% mangrove cover of its total land area presently.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13173403","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,31]],"date-time":"2021-08-31T21:59:45Z","timestamp":1630447185000},"page":"3403","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Using Historical Archives and Landsat Imagery to Explore Changes in the Mangrove Cover of Peninsular Malaysia between 1853 and 2018"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Lavaniadevi","family":"Gopalakrishnan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Systems Ecology and Resource Management Research Unit (SERM), Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles-ULB, 1050 Brussels, Belgium"},{"name":"Ecology & Biodiversity, Laboratory of Plant Biology and Nature Management, Biology Department, Vrije Universiteit Brussel-VUB, 1050 Brussels, Belgium"}]},{"given":"Behara","family":"Satyanarayana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Systems Ecology and Resource Management Research Unit (SERM), Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles-ULB, 1050 Brussels, Belgium"},{"name":"Mangrove Research Unit (MARU), Institute of Oceanography and Environment (INOS), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), Kuala Nerus 21300, Malaysia"}]},{"given":"Danyang","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Systems Ecology and Resource Management Research Unit (SERM), Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles-ULB, 1050 Brussels, Belgium"},{"name":"Ecology & Biodiversity, Laboratory of Plant Biology and Nature Management, Biology Department, Vrije Universiteit Brussel-VUB, 1050 Brussels, Belgium"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5919-1081","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Giovanna","family":"Wolswijk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Systems Ecology and Resource Management Research Unit (SERM), Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles-ULB, 1050 Brussels, Belgium"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9184-0317","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"A.
