Mangroves stand out as one of the most diverse and biologically significant natural systems
in the world. Playing critical roles in maintaining the health and productivity of coastal …

The pressing need to mitigate the effects of climate change is driving the development of
novel approaches for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere, with the ocean …

Mangroves and saltmarshes are biogeochemical hotspots storing carbon in sediments and
in the ocean following lateral carbon export (outwelling). Coastal seawater pH is modified by …

Mangroves are one of the most carbon‐dense forests on the Earth and have been
highlighted as key ecosystems for climate change mitigation and adaptation. Hundreds of …

Estuaries play an important role in connecting the global carbon cycle across the land-to-
ocean continuum, but little is known about Australia's contribution to global CO2 emissions …

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) plays an essential role in the global marine carbon cycle,
with coastal vegetated communities as important DOC producers. However, the ultimate fate …

Mangrove soils are highly enriched in organic carbon. Tidal pum** drives seawater and
oxygen into mangrove soils during flood tide and releases carbon-rich porewater during ebb …

Long-term “Blue Carbon” burial in seagrass meadows is complicated by other carbon and
alkalinity exchanges that shape net carbon sequestration. We measured a suite of such …

Seagrass beds act as blue carbon sinks globally as they enhance the trap** of recalcitrant
(ie, low biodegradability) organic carbon in their sediments. Recent studies also show that …

Blue carbon ecosystems require conservation and restoration to maximize organic carbon
(C ORG) sequestration to ameliorate greenhouse gas emissions. Salt marshes, mangrove …
