Mangrove reforestation provides greater blue carbon benefit than afforestation for mitigating global climate change

Shanshan Song et al.

Summary: Blue carbon benefit has not been compared between mangrove reforestation and afforestation pathways at the global scale. This study shows that mangrove reforestation has a greater carbon storage potential per hectare than afforestation, mainly due to favorable intertidal positioning, higher nitrogen availability, and lower salinity. Reforestation of deforested mangrove regions worldwide could lead to a global uptake of 671.5-688.8 Tg CO2-eq over a 40-year period, 60% more than afforesting the same global area on marginal tidal flats.

Exploring complex water stress-gross primary production relationships: Impact of climatic drivers, main effects, and interactive effects

Huan Wang et al.

Summary: There is still debate about the dominance of vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and soil water content (SWC) in plant water stress. In this study, using statistical methods and extreme gradient boosting models, we found that VPD was more important than SWC for plant water stress. The study also revealed the interaction effect between VPD and SWC, and a threshold effect for VPD stress on gross primary production (GPP) loss.

Spatial patterns and driving factors of carbon stocks in mangrove forests on Hainan Island, China

Yuchen Meng et al.

Summary: Our study investigated the spatial patterns and driving factors of carbon stocks in mangrove forests on Hainan Island using field surveys, Sentinel-2 imagery analysis, and structural equation modelling. We found that carbon storage in mangroves varied across the island, with soil nutrient availability, especially nitrogen content, being the dominant factor influencing carbon stock variations along the land-sea gradient. These findings have important implications for understanding the distribution of mangrove carbon stocks and quantifying the global blue carbon budget.

Mangrove forests under climate change in a 2°C world

Daniel A. Friess et al.

Summary: The global effort to limit global temperature rises to less than 2 degrees C is crucial for mangrove forests, as they are primarily located in tropical and subtropical regions that are expected to see significant climate changes. This article explores the potential impacts of climate change on mangroves and discusses the challenges in attributing these impacts to climate change versus other global change stressors.

Prolonged impacts of extreme precipitation events weakened annual ecosystem CO2 sink strength in a coastal wetland

Siyu Wei et al.

Summary: The study found that extreme precipitation events can impact the carbon cycle processes of coastal wetland ecosystems, leading to reduced CO2 uptake and weakening the annual CO2 sink function of wetlands.

Seasonal not annual precipitation drives 8-year variability of interannual net CO2 exchange in a salt marsh

Xiaojing Chu et al.

Summary: The study found that the salt marshes in the Yellow River Delta act as a sink for atmospheric CO2, with their annual net ecosystem CO2 exchange being influenced by precipitation levels during the early growth stage of plants. Increasing moisture during the early growth stage of plants can enhance the carbon assimilation capacity of salt marshes.

Agroforestry reclamations decreased the CO2 budget of a coastal wetland in the Yangtze estuary

Guishu He et al.

Summary: The study investigates the response of CO2 budget in coastal wetlands to agroforestry reclamations. The results show that agroforestry conversions substantially decrease the CO2 fixation service by changing the ecosystem's structure and function, with wetland vegetation productivity decrease being the main reason. The interannual variability of NEE is primarily attributed to functional changes rather than meteorological variations, suggesting the importance of wise land-use policy and management measures in reclaimed coastal areas for global warming mitigation.

The potential of mature Sonneratia apetala plantations to enhance carbon stocks in the Zhanjiang Mangrove National Nature Reserve

Gang Wang et al.

Summary: Non-native Sonneratia apetala plantations are recommended for mangrove reforestation in China due to their rapid carbon accumulation, but monitoring data on carbon dynamics in mature planted mangroves is lacking. This study found that biomass increased significantly with mangrove growth, while SOC content remained stable. Longer-term monitoring is needed to further evaluate SOC accumulation in Sonneratia apetala plantations.

How Land-Sea Interaction of Tidal and Sea Breeze Activity Affect Mangrove Net Ecosystem Exchange?

Xudong Zhu et al.

Summary: This study reveals that coastal mangrove wetlands act as consistent carbon sinks with weak seasonality in net ecosystem exchange (NEE), and environmental controls vary across time scales. Periodic tidal inundation and sea breeze activity exert both direct and indirect effects on mangrove NEE, with sea breeze relieving atmospheric temperature/moisture stresses and promoting carbon uptake. Previously neglected indirect effects of land-sea interaction play an important role in influencing mangrove carbon flux.

Forest floor fluxes drive differences in the carbon balance of contrasting boreal forest stands

Jinshu Chi et al.

Summary: The study reveals the important role of forest floor CO2 fluxes in regulating the boreal forest carbon balance, with significant differences in contributions to net CO2 sources between different forest stands. NFFE acts as the main driver for the differences in NEE between contrasting stands, highlighting the need for high spatio-temporal resolution data acquisition to improve predictions of global change impacts on forest carbon cycles.

Forest thinning in the seaward fringe speeds up surface elevation increment and carbon accumulation in managed mangrove forests

Luzhen Chen et al.

Summary: Mangroves act as important carbon sinks and ecological engineers, accumulating sediments and increasing soil surface elevation. Thinning practices may lead to changes in forest structure and soil surface elevation, affecting plant growth. After thinning, light-demanding species like Acanthus ilicifolius may become more prominent in mangroves, altering soil characteristics.

Methane Emissions Offset Net Carbon Dioxide Uptake From an Alpine Peatland on the Eastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau

Haijun Peng et al.

Summary: This study measured CO2 and CH4 fluxes in a typical alpine peatland on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau using the eddy covariance technique and found that the net CO2-eq flux was primarily influenced by global radiation and soil temperature variations. The results highlight the significant impact of CH4 emissions on the warming effect of the peatlands and the potential implications for future climate change.
