Understanding Beyond Blue Carbon in Climate Change
Introduction to Beyond Blue Carbon The concept of beyond blue carbon refers to the carbon sequestration capabilities of coastal and marine ecosystems. Unlike traditional blue carbon, which focuses on mangrove forests, seagrasses, and salt marshes, beyond blue carbon emphasizes the broader spectrum of aquatic systems and their roles in climate change mitigation. The Role of…

These ecosystems play a critical role in mitigating climate change by sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it in their biomass and sediments. However, the focus has recently expanded…
