description The effect of hydroperiod on the survival and growth of Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa, and Rhizophora mangle seedlings under experimental conditions was investigated using a simulated tidal system. Seedlings of the three mangrove species were grown at four inundation levels. All levels were flooded every 12 h in order to create a simulated semi-diurnal tide cycle (i.e., two high tides and two low tides per day). Based on the hydroperiod for the study area, level 1 was flooded for 10 h, level 2 for 6 h, level 3 for 2 h, and level 4 for 6 min. After 570 days, the results showed that R. mangle presented the highest growth at level 1 and the lowest growth at level 4. The optimal growth of L. racemosa occurred at levels 2 and 3, but all the seedlings died at level 1, indicating that this species is highly sensitive to tidal regimes. Compared to L. racemosa and R. mangle, A. germinans had a moderate growth rate at all four levels. Mangrove growth differentiations were more prominent at levels 1 and 3, where the three species showed very different growth patterns. Studies of optimal growth using hydroperiod experiments are important in order to understand the physiological responses of mangrove forests to a possible sea level rise in the next decades, especially in subtropical environments where they are constantly exposed to stress. Se investigó el efecto del hidroperiodo en el crecimiento y supervivencia de plántulas de Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa y Rhizophora mangle bajo condiciones experimentales por medio de un simulador de mareas. Se colocaron plántulas de las tres especies a cuatro diferentes niveles de inundación durante 12 h para simular un ciclo de marea semidiurna (i.e., dos mareas altas y dos mareas bajas por día). Con base en el hidroperiodo de la zona de estudio, el nivel 1 estuvo inundado por 10 h, el nivel 2 por 6 h, el nivel 3 por 2 h y el nivel 4 por 6 min. Después de 570 días, los resultados mostraron que R. mangle presentó el mayor crecimiento en el nivel 1 y el menor crecimiento en el nivel 4. El crecimiento óptimo de L. racemosa fue en los niveles intermedios 2 y 3, pero todas las plántulas murieron en el nivel 1, lo cual nos indica que esta especie es altamente sensible a periodos prolongados de inundación. Comparado con L. racemosa y R. mangle, A. germinans presentó un crecimiento moderado en los cuatro niveles. La diferencia en el crecimiento de los manglares fue más prominente en los niveles 1 y 3, donde las tres especies mostraron patrones muy diferentes. Los estudios sobre el crecimiento óptimo mediante simuladores de marea son importantes para entender la respuesta fisiológica de los bosques de mangle a un posible incremento en el nivel del mar en las próximas décadas, especialmente en ambientes subtropicales donde el nivel de estrés es alto.
