| Miêu tả: | Studying the characteristics of the physiographic context of a region, supported with geographic information systems, remote sensing inputs, and digital elevation models, allows to analyze the horizontal distribution of plant species of a mangrove, and this contributes its geographical delimitation. This paper shows that there are potential physiographic conditions for the expansion of the mangrove in Nosara. Thus, its current delimitation, by means of landmarks, could be overcome due to plant adaptability resulting from the future increase in sea level. Therefore, an additional geographical area is recommended to play a role within the coastal master plans as a buffer zone that not only facilitates the adaptive migration (resilience) of the vegetal species of the mangrove but also allows the creation of management plans for the future. |
