Carbon stock was highest in low salinity areas, with trees contributing up to 4098.6 Mg C.
Salinity differences were significant during the dry season, affecting tree height and biomass.
Using allometric equations, the study estimated above ground biomass across varying salinity levels.
Findings point to vital conservation implications for urban mangrove ecosystems facing climate change.
