Unveiling coastal ecosystem dependencies: multifactorial analysis of climate change influencing mangrove system in the United Arab Emirates over the period 1990–2020

Discover Sustainability
Mangroves are an integral part of the coastal ecosystems, demonstrating resiliency against adverse anthropogenic and environmental effects. They provide blue carbon stock and security against coastal erosion and act as a nutrient source for many aquatic ...

Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Across Land Cover Types in Segara Anakan, Central Java

Jurnal Manajemen Hutan Tropika
Land cover change significantly affects soil organic carbon (SOC) storage, which is crucial for climate change mitigation. This study quantifies SOC stocks across five land cover types: mangrove forests, shrubs, settlements, plantations, and rice fields

Mangrove afforestation increases microbial necromass but reduces their contribution to soil carbon pool

Ecological Indicators
Despite the widely acknowledged importance of microbial necromass carbon (MnC) in carbon sequestration, the mechanisms regulating MnC accumulation in mangroves remain poorly understood.

Effects of thinning and pruning on native mangrove plants in understory of Laguncularia racemosa forest

Guangxi Zhiwu
In order to investigate a new way to replace the exotic mangrove Laguncularia racemosa plantations gradually with native mangrove forests through thinning and pruning without clear-cutting of drastic habitat disturbance in the reserve, we took the exotic

Habitat heterogeneity affects ecological functions of macrobenthic communities in a mangrove: Implication for the impact of restoration and afforestation

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2015
Mangroves have been dwindling rapidly in the last few decades due to human activities, and thus restoration is commonly conducted to recover the ecological functions of degraded mangroves. However, afforestation (i.e. mangrove plantation in mudflats) can

Multiple methods reveal the carbon stock potential of young reforested mangroves in Quanzhou Bay Nature Reserve, China

Ecological Indicators
Mangrove reforestation has emerged as a critical component in blue carbon, with its carbon sequestration potential receiving increasing attention. However, most existing studies have focused on mature mangrove stands and adopted generalized assessment ...
