Three to five metres of shoreline has been submerged every year since then, resulting in the loss of 4,000 rai of land to the sea.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Thailand lost almost one third of its coastal mangrove forests between 1961 and 2000. According to Thailand's Department of Marine and Coastal Resources, a quarter of the country's shores—about 700 kilometres (500 miles)—are eroding, some "severely".<ref name="Nation-20190408">Template:Cite news</ref>
