Abstract:The wastewater discharge into the marine environment may affect the integrity of the mangrove ecosystem. In this context, the possible effect of secondary-treated municipal wastewater discharge on the nutrient concentrations in the leaves and soils of Tubli Bay gray mangrove (Avicennia marina (Forsk.)
