Sediments become rocks by lithification. 1  compaction-lithification occurs as the weight of overlying sediments and rocks squeeze the sediments together into rock. 2  cementation-precipitates from groundwater and the growth of secondary minerals between the fragments may cement the rock.ediments become rocks by lithification. 1  compaction-lithification occurs as the weight of overlying sediments and rocks squeeze the sediments together into rock. 2  cementation-precipitates from groundwater and the growth of secondary minerals between the fragments may cement the rock.
Weather in Mangrove Forests can ranges drastically because of their location in mainly tropical climates around the world. Most of the mangrove forestation is in the Indian Ocean, whether it be on the coasts of India or surrounding the islands of Indonesia (see Locations of Forests).
These three types are the red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle), the black mangrove (Avicennia Germinans), and white mangroves (Laguncularia Racemosa). The red mangroves can be distinguished by the reddish color to the bark of the trunk roots.This type of mangrove is also called the Walking Tree.he dispersal period for the red mangroves is 40 days, the black mangrove is 14 days, and the white mangrove is 5 days. Since mangroves are found on the coastlines, they need to have characteristics that will help them to adapt to the salinity in these areas.
