  • Additionality requirements of carbon markets could penalize Indigenous stewardship

    Open AccessPeter I Macreadie, Brian Singleton et al.ARTICLENature Climate Change2026

  • Tourism as a Catalyst for Blue Carbon Restoration and Conservation

    Open AccessAhalya Suresh, Enayat A Moallemi et al.ARTICLESustainable Development2026

    Tourism is a major driver of coastal economies worldwide, yet it is also a growing source of pressure on blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) such as mangroves, seagrasses, and salt marshes. Nowadays, tourism‐led conservation/restoration is increasingly promoted under the banner of regenerative tourism, but how these projects are motivated, implemented, and translated into tangible outcomes remains poorly synthesised. Here, we present an analysis of 32 …

  • Can Environmental Markets Pay for More Sustainable Farm Dams? A Cost–Benefit Analysis

    Open AccessK U D N Hansani, Lukas Schuster et al.ARTICLESustainable Development2026References: 1

    Farm dams are widespread artificial waterbodies that play a critical role in agricultural water security. Enhancing these systems through sustainable interventions such as fencing, hardened access points, and revegetation can improve water quality and deliver carbon and biodiversity co‐benefits. Yet, adoption of the sustainable interventions remains limited due to uncertain financial returns. This study evaluates whether payment for ecosystem ser…

  • Recommendations for strengthening blue carbon science

    Open AccessMartin Dahl, Paul S Lavery et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2025

    Blue carbon (BC) habitats (e.g., mangroves, tidal marshes, and seagrasses) are important CO2 sinks but are among the most threatened ecosystems on Earth. Substantial research over the last decade has quantified BC to evaluate the climate benefits associated with habitat conservation and restoration. However, the exponential growth in BC science has resulted in differing approaches that hinder comparison across studies and increase uncertainty. He…

  • Barriers and Enablers to Blue Carbon Projects in Africa

    Open AccessDerrick Omollo, Peter I Macreadie et al.ARTICLESustainable Development2025References: 2

    Africa's ‘blue carbon ecosystems’ are increasingly recognised for their role in climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation and sustainable livelihoods, with existing carbon offset projects showcasing their potential to sequester carbon and support community livelihoods. Despite this promise, blue carbon (BC) projects remain scarce across Africa. Understanding the barriers to BC implementation is therefore critical for unlocking their po…

  • Immersive citizen science experiences and their role in changing perceptions of coastal wetlands

    Open AccessElizabeth Mckinley, M I Garcia Rojas et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2024

    Citizen, or community, science initiatives are increasingly recognised as an effective strategy to connect society with nature, science and environmental issues. However, different approaches to the delivery of the programmes can have different impacts on participant awareness, perceptions and behaviour change—especially when working with ecosystems perceived as less popular or uncharismatic, such as coastal wetlands, mangroves and saltmarshes. U…

  • Trends in Market‐Based Blue Carbon Projects

    Open AccessNipuni Perera, Micheli Duarte de Paula Costa et al.ARTICLESustainable Development2024References: 1

    The integration of blue carbon (BC) into the voluntary carbon market promotes BC ecosystem management through financial incentives. We analysed 70 BC projects and present a comprehensive knowledge synthesis on a multifaceted BC sector and its contribution toward sustainable development. Currently, market‐based BC projects are located across 29 countries, covering an extent of one million hectares globally. Mangrove projects are dominant (99.98%) …

  • Operationalizing marketable blue carbon

    Open AccessPeter I Macreadie, A I Robertson et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2022

  • Methane and nitrous oxide emissions complicate the climate benefits of teal and blue carbon wetlands

    Open AccessMartino E Malerba, Daniel A Frie et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2022

    Blue (coastal wetlands) and teal (inland wetlands) carbon ecosystems are long-term carbon sinks and are regarded as essential natural climate solutions. Yet, the same biogeochemical conditions favoring high carbon storage also promote the production of two potent greenhouse gases (GHGs)—methane and nitrous oxide—which can reduce the climate change mitigation potential of wetlands. Complex processes regulate the production and consumption of the t…

  • Integrating blue

    Open AccessAmrit Melissa Dencer-Brown, Robyn Shilland et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2022Cited by: 3References: 49

    Blue Carbon Ecosystems (BCEs) help mitigate and adapt to climate change but their integration into policy, such as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), remains underdeveloped. Most BCE conservation requires community engagement, hence community-scale projects must be nested within the implementation of NDCs without compromising livelihoods or social justice. Thirty-three experts, drawn from academia, project development and policy, each de…

  • A global map of mangrove forest soil carbon at 30 m spatial resolution

    Open AccessJonathan Sanderman, Tomislav Hengl et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    With the growing recognition that effective action on climate change will require a combination of emissions reductions and carbon sequestration, protecting, enhancing and restoring natural carbon sinks have become political priorities. Mangrove forests are considered some of the most carbon-dense ecosystems in the world with most of the carbon stored in the soil. In order for mangrove forests to be included in climate mitigation efforts, knowled…
