Pathways for Understanding Blue Carbon Microbiomes with Amplicon Sequencing. [PDF]
The capacity of Blue Carbon Ecosystems to act as carbon sinks is strongly influenced by the metabolism of soil-associated microbes, which ultimately determine how much carbon is accumulated or returned to the atmosphere. The rapid evolution of sequencing

Are Municipalities Ready for Integrating Blue Carbon Concepts?: Content Analysis of Coastal Management Plans in the Philippines [PDF]
The blue carbon ecosystems are gaining salience in the international arena due to their intrinsic role in climate change mitigation. Reviews on management strategies and plans at the local level are largely overlooked, although they are crucial factors ...

Assessing the vulnerability of marine sedimentary organic carbon : the influence of anthropogenic disturbance [PDF]
As anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO₂) concentrations rise, there is an increasing need to re-evaluate our understanding of the complex interactions involved within the global carbon (C) cycle. C stored within marine sediments have previously been largely

Linking blue carbon ecosystems with sustainable tourism: Dichotomy of urban–rural local perspectives from the Philippines [PDF]
Blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) are linked to tourism industry either as the main destination site or as additional features. Achieving sustainable tourism in coastal areas warrants the inclusion of long-term BCE management and protection, hence, it is ...

Blue carbon : challenges and opportunities to mitigate the climate and biodiversity crises
Climate change and biodiversity loss are two of humanity’s greatest challenges. Blue carbon, i.e. the carbon captured and stored by marine living organisms and ecosystems, has the potential to help mitigate both challenges, because marine ecosystems that

The contribution of coastal blue carbon ecosystems to climate change mitigation and adaptation [PDF]
This briefing paper explores the potential for marine coastal ecosystems that store carbon, blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs), to help both limit climate change and adapt to the impacts of a changing climate.

Use of emerging technologies to help measure fjordic biodiversity and blue carbon: mini-manned submarines and autonomous underwater vehicle swarms [PDF]
Meaningful protection of global oceans lags far behind that of land and has taken little consideration of climate mitigation potential to date (such as through assessment of blue carbon stocks and change).
