A review of blue carbon credit projects' socio‐economic activities

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Coastal ‘blue carbon’ ecosystems (mangroves, seagrasses and saltmarshes) are critical for climate regulation and biodiversity, yet significant funding gaps persist in marine conservation. While blue carbon credits are increasingly used to bridge these gaps, concerns remain regarding their efficacy in delivering socio‐economic benefits.

Resilience to Alkalinity Perturbations Reveals Ecosystem Stability under Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement

Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Research
Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is a leading climate mitigation strategy for atmospheric carbon dioxide removal, with theoretical potential to sequester gigatons of CO2 annually while counteracting ocean acidification.

A multimodel intercomparison study of variable‐resolution global models with grid refinement over the Arctic and Antarctic

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We document the protocol and first results from the first ever coordinated multimodel variable‐resolution experiment set with refinement over the polar regions. We find that the refinement generally yields model‐dependent effects. The most consistent improvement is an amelioration of the upper‐level cold bias in the polar regions that translates into ...

Seasonal Variation in Carbon Dynamics in the Lower Tocantins River: Influence of Discharge and Environmental Drivers

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tropical rivers play a key role in regional carbon budgets, yet greenhouse gas (GHG) dynamics in regulated systems remain poorly understood. This study investigates the seasonal variability of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) concentrations, isotopic composition (δ13C), and river‐atmosphere fluxes in the lower Tocantins River, a ...

The Hidden Costs of Coffee Production in the Eastern African Value Chains

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is increasing recognition that significant hidden costs associated with agrifood systems are not reflected in market prices. Coffee is among the three most traded agricultural commodities in the world and supports the livelihoods of more than 30 million smallholder households.

How well do global ocean approaches constrain local fCO2?

Environmental Research Letters
The ocean absorbs 29% of humanity’s annual anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO $_2$ ) emissions, and the future of climate change is strongly dependent on how this sink evolves.
