Blue carbon sequestration in seagrass meadows has been proposed as a low-risk, nature-
based solution to offset carbon emissions and reduce the effects of climate change …

This study quantified the organic carbon (C org) stocks in Thalassia hemprichii meadows
that are (i) adjacent to mangroves (MG), and (ii) without mangroves (WMG), in tropical …

The present study collated data on the Indian blue carbon repository (mangroves,
seagrasses, and salt marshes) from peer-reviewed literature on carbon stock assessment …

In order to promote and support the conservation, management, and improvement of the
environment in the area, the South Asia Co-operative Environment Programme (SACEP) …

Eutrophication due to aquaculture can cause the decline of seagrasses and impact their
carbon storage capacity. This study explored the effects of aquaculture on the sediment …

Seagrass beds are considered as breeding and feeding grounds for several species of
shellfishes, finfishes and other fauna. The decline of seagrass meadows has been recorded …

Vegetated habitats like mangroves, seagrasses and saltmarshes capture and store carbon
and act as carbon sinks. The carbon captured and stored in these habitats, especially in the …

Stock assessment of the blue carbon pool of selected patches of mangrove sediment in the
Vembanad Lake was done using the standard protocols on a per ha basis and multiplied …

agrass habitats are efficient carbon sink that can bury and store organic carbon for a long
time. We report here the capture of dissolved CO2 by the ocean-turf grass, Halophila …

Coastal ecosystems are some of the most productive natural systems on Earth and are
home to a wealth of biodiversity. Their role in sequestering and storing 'blue'carbon from the …
