The 31 pages that link to Blue carbon, each with the reason it gives.

• WetlandRelated: Salt marshes and mangroves are wetland habitats recognized for storing coastal carbon.

• Carbon sequestrationRelated: Coastal habitats can accumulate carbon-rich sediments over long periods.

• MangroveRelated: Mangrove forests store carbon in biomass and in deep, waterlogged sediments.

• Seagrass meadowRelated: Meadows trap organic matter and can store carbon in seabed sediments.

• Wetland conservationRelated: Protecting carbon-rich coastal wetlands can prevent emissions from disturbed soils.

• Mangrove forestRelated: Mangrove sediments can retain large amounts of organic carbon over long periods.

• Marine conservationRelated: Protecting carbon-rich coastal habitats can support climate mitigation alongside biodiversity goals.

• Kelp forestRelated: Kelp exports carbon, though its long-term storage depends on where that material goes.

• Carbon sinkRelated: It identifies coastal ecosystems as potential targets for conservation and restoration.

• Wetland restorationRelated: Restored coastal wetlands can recover carbon storage alongside habitat and water-quality functions.

• Aquatic plantRelated: Seagrass and other aquatic vegetation can retain carbon in sediments.

• Tidal flatRelated: Some vegetated tidal flats and adjoining wetlands bury organic carbon in sediment.

• Coastal squeezeRelated: Loss of vegetated coastal habitat can diminish long-term carbon storage.

• Salt marshRelated: Salt-marsh soils can retain carbon in accumulated organic matter.

• Mangrove restorationRelated: Carbon storage is a major climate benefit assessed in restoration projects.

• Organic matterRelated: Organic matter buried in coastal sediments contributes to long-lived ecosystem carbon stores.

• Wetland lossRelated: Uncertain carbon accounting complicates estimates of climate impacts from coastal wetland loss.

• Blue economyRelated: Blue-carbon projects connect habitat conservation with climate finance and coastal benefits.

• Coastal wetlandRelated: Wetland vegetation and waterlogged soils can retain carbon for long periods.

• KelpRelated: Kelp fixes carbon, though the scale and permanence of its storage remain debated.

• MarshRelated: Coastal marsh soils can store carbon over long periods.

• Ocean conservationRelated: Protecting carbon-rich coastal habitats can link biodiversity goals with climate mitigation.

• MudflatRelated: Organic-rich mudflat sediment can retain carbon, though storage varies by site.

• SeagrassRelated: Seagrass sediments can retain carbon for long periods, making meadows a blue-carbon ecosystem.

• Mangrove crabRelated: Crab feeding and burrowing influence how mangrove soils process and retain organic carbon.

• Edible seaweedRelated: Seaweed farming raises questions about how much cultivated algae contributes to durable carbon storage.

• Flooded grasslands and savannasRelated: Some flooded landscapes border coastal wetlands, but inland savannas are not usually classified as blue-carbon ecosystems.

• Marine coastal ecosystemRelated: Seagrass beds, mangroves, and tidal marshes can accumulate carbon in sediments.

• Scylla serrataRelated: Mangrove habitat used by mud crabs also stores carbon, connecting crab production to coastal ecosystem protection.
