Palétuviers rouge, "Rhizophora racemosa", dans la mangrove de l'estuaire du fleuve Oyapock, en Guyane française. Cette mangrove ainsi que la ligne de côte sont soumis aux effets de l'érosion côtière. L'énergie des vagues désagrège le sédiment, déchausse les arbres et provoque leur chute. L'objectif des chercheurs est de comprendre, modéliser et prévoir la dynamique côtière guyanaise et celle de la mangrove qui y est associée.
