Tidal Flats as a Significant Carbon Reservoir in Global Coastal Ecosystems

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Tidal flats are widely distributed and provide a variety of ecosystem services. Nevertheless, the consequences of tidal flat loss and implications for services such as carbon (C) sequestration have not been assessed. In unvegetated tidal flat ecosystems,

Landscape ecological risk assessment and driving mechanism of coastal estuarine tidal flats—A case study of the liaohe estuary wetlands

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Estuarine tidal flats are located in the land-sea crisscross-sensitive zone. The degraded and shrinking state of major tidal flat landscapes weakens their ecological role in maintaining the safety of coastal wetlands in the world.
