N2  - Above- and below-ground biomass of A. marina were estimated on three plots with different vegetation  characteristics in a subtropical mangrove woodland at Boggy Creek near Brisbane. Total photosynthetic  and non-photosynthetic above-ground biomasses of mangroves in the plots were 16.2, 34.1 and 11.0 kg m-2,  below-ground plus pneumatophore biomasses were 10.9, 12.1 and 12.6 kg m-2. Although the study site  is in an industrialized, moderately polluted estuary, the biomass of Avicennia here is similar to that of  Avicennia communities elsewhere.
