Coastal wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems and store large amounts of
organic carbon (C)—the so termed “blue carbon.” However, wetlands in the tropics and …

Despite increasing recognition of the critical role of coastal wetlands in mitigating climate
change, sea‐level rise, and salinity increase, soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration …

Estuarine wetlands are an important part of coastal blue carbon and play an essential role in
mitigating climate change. However, their geographical location typically exposes them to …

Mangrove forests have high ecological, social and economic values, but due to
environmental changes and human activities, natural mangrove forests have experienced …

Tidal wetlands contain large reservoirs of carbon in their soils and can sequester carbon
dioxide (CO 2) at a greater rate per unit area than nearly any other ecosystem. The spatial …

Tidal marshes are sedimentary environments and are among the most productive
ecosystems on Earth. As a consequence they have the potential to reduce atmospheric …

Salinity alterations will likely change the plant and environmental characteristics in coastal
marshes thereby influencing soil carbon accumulation rates. Coastal Louisiana marshes …

Coastal wetland soils store large amounts of organic carbon, which is becoming vulnerable
to environmental changes such as exotic species invasion and climate change. Soil organic …

Deltaic landscapes consist of vast wetland systems that rely on sedimentation to maintain
their elevation and ecological communities against relative sea‐level rise. In the Mississippi …
