This project investigates how global warming affects carbon storage in mangrove ecosystems, which are significant carbon sinks. By using mesocosm experiments and isotopic analysis, it aims to quantify soil organic matter decay and understand the mechanisms behind these changes.
The world’s vegetation acts as a large carbon sink, absorbing ~30% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions.
Ecosystems at the interface of terrestrial and oceanic ecosystems – including mangroves – have been little studied.
Yet, mangroves contribute disproportionally to this sink capacity relative to their aerial extent, as they have up to ten times higher burial rates than terrestrial forests.
Under global warming, it is nevertheless unclear whether mangroves will continue to store carbon and absorb CO2…
