The assessment combines a spatially explicit analysis with a system dynamics model to quantify direct and indirect costs and benefits of mangrove restoration in the Mallorquín Swamp and grey infrastructure alternatives that provide similar benefits. This study demonstrates that the restored Mallorquín Swamp will provide multiple benefits, such as income from ecotourism and improved climate adaptation, including avoided flooding and erosion.
