Mangroves and salt marshes are among the most productive ecosystems in the global
coastal ocean. Mangroves store more carbon (739 Mg CORG ha− 1) than salt marshes (334 …

Mangroves are ecologically and economically important forests of the tropics. They are
highly productive ecosystems with rates of primary production equal to those of tropical …

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 …

Mangroves provide vital ecosystem services at the dynamic interface between land and
oceans. Recent reports of mangrove mortality suggest that mangroves may be adversely …

Although their ecological and socioeconomic importance has received recent attention,
mangrove ecosystems are one of the most threatened tropical environments. Besides direct …

A majority of the global net primary production of mangroves is unaccounted for by current
carbon budgets. It has been hypothesized that this “missing carbon” is exported as dissolved …

Mangrove ecosystems store large amounts of'Blue Carbon', in particular in the sediment.
Research in the past decade has emphasized the quantitative significance of carbon …

Mangrove‐and saltmarsh‐dominated estuaries have high rates of organic carbon burial.
Here, we estimate soil, pore water, and surface‐water carbon fluxes in an Australian …

Worldwide, coastal systems provide some of the most productive habitats, which potentially
influence a range of marine and terrestrial ecosystems through the transfer of nutrients and …

The contribution of mangrove carbon to the coastal ocean in low latitudes was evaluated.
Mangrove forests occupy only 2% of the world's coastal ocean area yet they account for …
