DOI: 10.18280/ijsdp.160317
Abstract: The growth of human occupations in coastal areas and climate change impact have changed the dynamics of seagrass cover and accelerated the damage to coral reefs globally. For these reasons, coastal management measures need to… read more here.

Modeled CO2 Emissions from Coastal Wetland Transitions to Other Land Uses: Tidal Marshes, Mangrove Forests, and Seagrass Beds
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Frontiers in Marine Science"
DOI: 10.3389/fmars.2017.00143
Abstract: The sediments of coastal wetlands contain large stores of carbon which are vulnerable to oxidation once disturbed, resulting in high levels of CO2 emissions that may be avoided if coastal ecosystems are conserved or restored.… read more here.
