The Science of Current and Emerging Blue Carbon Ecosystems

Session ID#: 259718

Session Description:
Blue Carbon Ecosystems (mangroves, saltmarsh, seagrass) can be leveraged for climate change mitigation and adaptation if properly managed. The need for a better scientific understanding of their functioning is holding back their implementation into greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories. The main barriers derive from large uncertainties associated with the high level of variability in drivers of organic carbon (OC) stocks and accumulation rates (CAR), GHG fluxes, and the CAR/GHG flux ratio. This session welcomes any contribution to the evidence and understanding that is required to address these knowledge gaps and that will strengthen blue carbon science. We encourage submissions that assess conditions under which ecosystems can shift between net CO2 sources and sinks; expose the effects of local disturbances, human activities, and/or climate change to coastal OC cycling and GHG fluxes; quantify or qualify potential carbon sequestration from coastal vegetated ecosystems; present recent methodological advances to study these themes; and connect science and policy frameworks on national and international levels. The session is being convened on behalf of the United Nations Ocean Decade Programme for Blue Carbon (GO-BC), and we welcome contributions on any aspect of actionable or emerging (e.g. kelp, intertidal/subtidal sediments) Blue Carbon Ecosystems.
