Findings of this study suggest that “restoring mangroves, which are common in tropical shallow marine settings, will lead to notable local #OceanAlkalinityEnhancement across a wide range of scenarios.”

“The process is seagrass & mangroves influence the organic & inorganic cycling of C in sediment, with strong impacts on diffusive #alkalinity fluxes. In carbonate-rich sediment, seagrass & mangroves foster carbonate dissolution, resulting in increased alkalinity production...

Remember the claims that 'Bottom trawling releases as much carbon as global air travel'? It turns out that these simplistic estimates have overestimated CO2 release by two to three orders of magnitude

Today we publish a paper showing that Sala et al. massively overestimate the reactivity of buried carbon. nature.com/articles/s4158…
This shouldn't come as a surprise, because the empirical evidence on the impacts of trawling on #BlueCarbon is very mixed. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Is a series of short films about fishers here in 🇮🇪 and their connection to the sea.
John Brittain, a Galway sea angler tells us how he believes MPAs could lead to better living for coastal communities & a chance to protect biodiversity.

Is the organic carbon captured & stored by the world's oceanic & coastal ecosystems (think seagrasses, macroalgae, mangroves, salt marshes etc.) making the 🌊our biggest ally for mitigating #ClimateChange 💪🌍🌎🌏

There’s a gaping (loop)hole in #climate reporting, calculations & countermeasures—#BlueCarbon!
Must finally put #Seabed #CarbonSink on agenda for #COP26...
Here too #China leads world in #carbon damage—by far.
Time for accountability on #RoadToGlasgow!

We're going to #livetweet this event! Watch along with us here and send us your follow up questions.
Here we go! @BillWeirCNN is hosting Thad Allen of @USCG , @LibbySchaaf the Mayor of Oakland, Emily Pidgeon of @ConservationOrg, our own Greg Ruiz, Phil Ryan of Swiss Re Americas, and Tuck Hines of @SmithsonianEnv !
Mayor @LibbySchaaf of Oakland, CA talking about climate change effects in San Francisco Bay Area, one of our major areas of invasions research.
Early tomorrow 🌅Ill b tweeting @ the soon-to-b-released IPCC Ocean & Cryosphere report 🐟Also happy to answer questions etc from journos 2day/tmw via email or DM @ClimateComms @Revkin @kate_sheppard @drvox @yayitsrob @KHayhoe @Tessa_M_Hill @unccollege @ClimateCentral
@ClimateComms @Revkin @kate_sheppard @drvox @yayitsrob @KHayhoe @Tessa_M_Hill @unccollege @ClimateCentral PS, Im a Prof @unc & a marine ecologist who works on the impacts of ocean heating on marine ecosystems. Im not an author of this report, so will be commenting / explaining / providing context as an outside expert. I was an author of the recent US National Climate Assessment.
@ClimateComms @Revkin @kate_sheppard @drvox @yayitsrob @KHayhoe @Tessa_M_Hill @unccollege @ClimateCentral @UNC Morning friends☕️Waiting on the @IPCC_CH to release the SROCCC
