The conservation, restoration, and improved management of terrestrial forests significantly
contributes to mitigate climate change and its impacts, as well as providing numerous co …

The potential for Blue Carbon ecosystems to combat climate change and provide co-benefits
was discussed in the recent and influential Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change …

Aim Macroalgal habitats are believed to be the most extensive and productive of all coastal
vegetated ecosystems. In stark contrast to the growing attention on their contribution to …

The ocean is a key component of the Earth system (Chapter 1) as it provides essential life
supporting services (Inniss et al. 2017). For example, it stores heat trapped in the …

Carbon sequestration is defined as the secure storage of carbon‐containing molecules for>
100 years, and in the context of carbon dioxide removal for climate mitigation, the origin of …

Abstract The term 'Blue Carbon'was coined about a decade ago to highlight the important
carbon sequestration capacity of coastal vegetated ecosystems. The term has paved the …

Macroalgae form the most extensive and productive benthic marine vegetated habitats
globally but their inclusion in Blue Carbon (BC) strategies remains controversial. We review …

Finding ways to keep global warming under 1.5 degrees Celsius is urgent and will need a
portfolio of solutions. Seaweeds are marine photosynthetic organisms that humans harvest …

Recognition of the potential for vegetated coastal ecosystems to store and sequester carbon
has led to their increasing inclusion into global carbon budgets and carbon offset schemes …

Macroalgae drive the largest CO2 flux fixed globally by marine macrophytes. Most of the
resulting biomass is exported through the coastal ocean as detritus and yet almost no field …
