Globalization and renewable energy use: how are they contributing to upsurge the CO2 emissions? A global perspective

Abdul Rehman et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the impact of globalization, economic growth, population growth, renewable energy usage, and nuclear energy on CO2 emissions. The results indicate that globalization and economic growth have different effects on CO2 emissions in both the short and long term. Population growth has a positive impact on CO2 emissions, while renewable energy consumption does not affect CO2 emissions. Furthermore, positive and negative shocks to nuclear energy consumption are found to negatively influence CO2 emissions. Based on these findings, new policies and strategies are recommended for global carbon emissions reduction.

A Qualitative Assessment of Natural and Anthropogenic Drivers of Risk to Sustainable Livelihoods in the Indian Sundarban

Sumana Banerjee et al.

Summary: In the Indian Sundarban, the multiplicity of natural hazards, exposure, and vulnerability poses serious threats to lives and livelihoods. This study used the impact chain tool to understand the complex interactions and risks caused by these factors. Analyses of both quantitative and qualitative data revealed that tropical cyclones, rainfall variability, and storms were the dominant hazards affecting social-ecological vulnerability. Processes such as male migration, uncertain agricultural income, and a lack of hazard-resistant housing further exacerbated social vulnerability. Fundamental threats such as embankment breaching, land and water salinization, land loss due to erosion, mangrove degradation, land conversion, and groundwater abstraction could lead to a loss of sustainable livelihoods if left unaddressed.

Carbon Biogeochemistry of the Estuaries Adjoining the Indian Sundarbans Mangrove Ecosystem: A Review

Isha Das et al.

Summary: The study reviewed carbon-biogeochemistry-related observations in the Indian Sundarbans mangrove ecosystem regarding CO2 and CH4 dynamics in estuaries. Factors such as pCO(2(water)), pCH(4(water)), and air-water CO2 and CH4 fluxes were analyzed along with their drivers. The Hooghly estuary showed higher CO2 emissions than the Sundarbans estuaries, which could be attributed to the presence of mangrove sediment porewater and recirculated groundwater rich in CO2 and CH4. The review highlighted the importance of factors like freshwater-seawater admixing and primary productivity in regulating CO2 and CH4 dynamics.

Decadal loss of above-ground biomass and subsequent potential CO2 emission from the Sundarbans mangrove ecosystem, India

Nilanjan Das et al.

Summary: Mangrove forests, with their high carbon densities, have experienced decline which has resulted in potential CO2 emissions. This study analyzed satellite images and found that the total loss of mangrove area in the Indian part of Sundarbans in the last 30 years is 138.4 km2, with erosion accounting for 57% of the loss. The loss of above-ground biomass has led to a potential CO2 emission of 2028.4 +/- 713.7 Gg, costing $101.42 million in terms of the social cost of carbon. Additionally, the study identified that fluctuations during high tidal surges of cyclone 'Aila' played a significant role in depleting the 'blue carbon' of Sundarbans.

Future Mangrove Carbon Storage Under Climate Change and Deforestation

Mark Chatting et al.

Summary: Mangroves are important for carbon sequestration, but future climate change and deforestation may have adverse impacts on their ability to store carbon. This study found that climate change will increase global carbon stocks in mangroves, exceeding losses from deforestation. However, under high-end scenarios, elevated temperatures and wider temperature ranges may increase the risk of carbon stock diminishment in some countries. Reducing mangrove deforestation rates would enhance the carbon benefit and make offsetting emissions through mangrove protection and restoration more attractive.

Unique characteristics of ecosystem CO2 exchange in Sundarban mangrove forest and their relationship with environmental factors

Suraj Reddy Rodda et al.

Summary: Sundarban mangroves, the largest tidal halophytic mangrove forest in the world, play a significant role in the global mangrove carbon budget. However, there is a lack of long-term continuous monitoring of CO2 fluxes and their response to climatic variations in this ecosystem. This study presents the carbon balance and seasonal dynamics of the Sundarban mangroves using quasi-continuous eddy covariance measurements. The findings show that these mangroves act as a net carbon sink and their CO2 fluxes are influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, vapour pressure deficit, rainfall, and radiation.

Reduction in Riverine Freshwater Supply Changes Inorganic and Organic Carbon Dynamics and Air-Water CO2 Fluxes in a Tropical Mangrove Dominated Estuary

Anirban Akhand et al.

Summary: A study of two Indian estuaries near mangroves found that reduced riverine freshwater supply increased the marine influence on organic matter degradation pathways and decreased CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. Compared to Dhamra, the greater variability in biogeochemical pathways in Matla led to higher internal carbonate buffering capacity. This research highlights the overlooked impact of long-term changes in riverine freshwater supply on the carbon dynamics of mangrove-dominated estuaries, improving understanding of coastal carbon budgets in a changing world.
