Mangrove forests have survived a number of catastrophic climate events since first
appearing along the shores of the Tethys Sea during the late Cretaceous-Early Tertiary. The …

Mangroves occur on upper intertidal shorelines in the tropics and subtropics. Complex
hydrodynamic and salinity conditions, related primarily to elevation and hydroperiod …

Restoration of coastal wetlands has the potential to deliver both climate change mitigation,
called blue carbon, and adaptation benefits to coastal communities, as well as supporting …

The climate change-induced expansion of mangroves into salt marshes could significantly
alter the carbon (C) storage capacity of coastal wetlands, which have the highest average C …

Inland water carbon (C) sequestration rates play a potentially important role in the balance
between C supplies from the atmosphere and associated watersheds and the net demand of …

Riverine wetlands are created and transformed by geomorphological processes that
determine their vegetation composition, primary production and soil accretion, all of which …

Changing winter climate extremes are expected to result in the poleward migration of
mangrove forests at the expense of salt marshes. Although mangroves and marshes are …

Although coastal vegetated ecosystems are widely recognised as important sites of long-
term carbon (C) storage, substantial spatial variability exists in quantifications of these 'blue …

Australia's tidal marshes have suffered significant losses but their recently recognised
importance in CO2 sequestration is creating opportunities for their protection and …

Coastal vegetated wetlands such as mangrove forests provide multiple ecosystem services,
though are potentially threatened by contemporary accelerated sea level rise (SLR), in …
