Examines mangrove distribution changes along shorelines, highlighting necessary conservation measures in response to coastal dynamics.

This research aims to analyze the changes in mangrove coverage related to shoreline dynamics in Subang Regency over 35 years.
Analyzed Landsat spatial data from 1990 to 2025
Employed Random Forest algorithm via GEE platform for annual mangrove classification
Measured mangrove area and shoreline changes due to aquaculture interventions
Mangrove area reduced from 639 ha in 1992 to 261 ha in 2025
Shoreline retreated by 46 meters per year with sediment accumulation forming new mangrove areas
Accretion rate calculated at 23 ha per year, impacting mangrove succession negatively.

Santoso et al. (2026) studied this question.
