MANGROVES ARE LOCATED IN COASTAL AREAS.FEATURES OF MANGROVESTHE LEAVES OF THE TREES MANGROVES ARE SHINY,LEATHRY. THERE ARE MANY COLORS OF MANGROVES LIKE PURPLE,GREEN RED ETC Mangrove seeds are buoyant and therefore suited to water dispersal. Unlike most plants, whose seeds germinate in soil, many mangroves (e.g. red mangrove) are viviparous, whose seeds germinate while still attached to the parent tree. Mangroves can be found in over 118 countries and territories in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The largest percentage of mangroves is found between 5° N and 5° S latitudes.[20] Approximately 75% of world's mangroves are found in just 15 countries.[20] Asia has the largest amount (42%) of the world's mangroves, followed by Africa (21%), North/Central America (15%), Oceania (12%) and South America (11%PakistanPakistani mangroves are located mainly along the delta of the Indus River (the Indus River Delta-Arabian Sea mangroves ecoregion) PAKISTAN.... Major mangrove forests are found on the coastline of the provinces of Sindh and Balochistan. In Karachi, land reclamation projects have led to the cutting down of mangrove forests for commercial and urban development.
The construction of the dams upstream of the Indus have affected the growth of the mangrove at the delta by reducing the water level. The dams are also putting in jeopardy the Indus river dolphin.
It starts from Thatta to Arbian sea.

The Indus delta is often considered a wasteland due to factors such as water mismanagement, reduced river flow, and the intrusion of seawater, which have impacted the fertility of the land and the livelihoods of local communities that rely on agriculture and fishing. Pollution and industrial waste dumping have also contributed to the degradation of the ecosystem in the delta region.
The Indus River terminates at the Arabian Sea forming a delta. The city of Karachi, Pakistan lies a short distance from this delta.
1) The continental shelf is bigger in Sindhcoast. Since it is big, sunlight reaches and promotes the growth of Plankton, which is basic food for fish.2) More mangroves near the Sindhcoast3) Nodules of mangroves provide food for fish4)Mouth of Indus ends up in Sindh,thus providing food and minerals for marine life.5) It is much more developed than MakranCoast.
