Mangrove forests, seagrass meadows and tidal saltmarshes are vegetated coastal
ecosystems that accumulate and store large quantities of carbon in their sediments. Many …

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

Blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) including mangroves, saltmarshes, and seagrasses are
highly efficient for organic carbon (OC) accumulation due to their unique ability to trap high …

Tidal wetlands sequester vast amounts of organic carbon (OC) and enhance soil accretion.
The conservation and restoration of these ecosystems is becoming increasingly geared …

Abstract Sediment-adsorbed Dissolved Organic Matter (SDOM) in coast plays a crucial role
in the terrestrial and marine carbon cycle processes of the global environment. However …

Utilizing plant extracts for soil washing is a promising and cost-efficient strategy to
permanently remove toxic metals from farmland soils. However, the efficiency of current …

Volatilization of lower-chlorinated polychlorinated biphenyls (LC-PCBs) from sediment
poses health threats to nearby communities and ecosystems. Biodegradation combined with …

Salt marshes are recognized as blue carbon ecosystems for their ability to rapidly sequester
organic carbon (OC) via sedimentation. For this reason, there is growing interest in …

Combustion-derived black carbon (BC) is an important component of sedimentary carbon
pool. Due to different physicochemical properties, determining the source of char and soot is …

Black carbon (BC) is a retarder in carbon cycle, and the proportion of char and soot in BC
restricts the significance of BC as a sink in carbon cycle. Tracing the sources of char and …
