Create a clear, friendly educational cutaway showing how a mangrove ecosystem protects a tropical coastline. The horizontal layered view moves from shallow sea through mangrove roots and sediment layers to a small coastal settlement. Visually demonstrate waves losing force among the roots, trapped sediment, juvenile fish nursery habitat and a stable shore through spatial relationships rather than written labels. Use a polished editorial science illustration style with realistic forms, simplified hierarchy, bright daylight, turquoise water, mangrove green, warm sand and coral accents. Scientifically plausible root systems and wildlife, uncluttered teaching clarity, no text, labels, logos or watermark.
