Mangroves and salt marshes are among the most productive ecosystems in the global
coastal ocean. Mangroves store more carbon (739 Mg CORG ha− 1) than salt marshes (334 …

Estuaries are a major boundary in the land-ocean interaction zone where organic carbon
(OC) and nutrients are being processed, resulting in a high water-to-air carbon dioxide …

Carbon cycling in the coastal zone affects global carbon budgets and is critical for
understanding the urgent issues of hypoxia, acidification, and tidal wetland loss. However …

Aim Natural wetlands are widely considered important for mitigation of climate change, but
they have been impacted by land use and land cover change (LULCC), often resulting in …

Estuaries profoundly transform the large amounts of carbon delivered from rivers before their
transfer to the adjacent coastal zone. As a consequence of the complex biogeochemical …

Salinity changes resulting from storm surge, tides, precipitation, and stormwater run-off are
common in coastal wetlands. Soil microbial communities respond quickly to salinity …

To improve our understanding of the carbon cycling response to imminent sea-level rise and
saltwater intrusions, we review the existing literature on the likely effects of the increasing …

Coastal saltmarshes are found globally, yet are 25%–50% reduced compared with their
historical cover. Restoration is incentivised by the promise that marshes are efficient storers …

Wetlands play an important role in regulating the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2)
concentrations and thus affecting the climate. However, there is still lack of quantitative …

Carbon (C) standing stocks, C mass balance, and soil C burial in tidal freshwater forested
wetlands (TFFW) and TFFW transitioning to low‐salinity marshes along the upper estuary …
