Goal
Technique: Planting of propagules in soft substrates from a helicopter flying at 30 m Planting of propagules in soft substrates from a helicopter flying at 30 m and speeds of 160 km/h releasing prepared mangrove-'missiles' made from sand-filled paper bags from which the tip of the propagule projected, and in which it became oriented in its fall as a result of crepe paper 'tails' being attached to the bag. Propagule missiles landed with the propagule in an upright position and thereby planted it. No spatial extent reported. Reported project duration 0,5 year(s).

A variable shows "pending" instead of a contribution when no domain area has been set for it yet — the share of the world a project touched cannot be computed without one. The health percentages are accurate regardless.
