Popis: | Carbon sequestered and stored in, or released from, salt marshes, mangroves, and seagrass ecosystems is often referred to as coastal "blue carbon." The term was first used in 2009 as a means of highlighting the significance of carbon sequestration and storage in these highly productive coastal ecosystems, largely to the policy and carbon finance communities. |
