If M is the Moon's sidereal orbital period (in days), then the Moon revolves around the Earth at a rate of 360 / M Â° per day. So in a time interval t days, the Moon revolves around the Earth t Ã 360 / M Â°. If Y is the Earth's sidereal orbital period in days, then the Earth revolves around the Sun at a rate of 360 / Y Â° per day and so in t days the Earth revolves around the Sun t Ã 360 / Y Â°.
Mangroves are a group of trees and shrubs that live in the coastal intertidal zone. Mangrove forest in Loxahatchee, Florida. There are about 80 different species of mangrove trees. All of these trees grow in areas with low-oxygen soil, where slow-moving waters allow fine sediments to accumulate.
Mangrove Forests. Mangrove forests thrive near the mouths of large rivers where river deltas provide lots of sediment (sand and mud). Mangrove roots collect sediments and slow the water's flow, helping to protect the coastline and preventing erosion. Over time, the roots can collect enough debris and mud to extend the edge of the coastline further out.
