I found this video summarizing the Contrufo et. al paper on the formation of SOM that I thought was helpful and wanted to pass it along.

Non- native mangrove invasions into ecosystems can be a good thing...
Non-native mangroves store sediment organic carbon "double the global mean for old growth mangrove forests"

Total CO2 emissions for all countries has increased from 1.96 billion tonnes of CO2 in 1900 to 36.831 billion tonnes of CO2 in 2018.
What countries lead in total CO2 emissions (%)?
China= 27%
USA= 15%

How much progress has been made toward limiting greenhouse-gas emissions? Not much, based on the numbers in these charts. #CoveringClimateNow https://t.co/OvudKlqHwh
"Our research has shown that protecting natural ecosystems can help us in the fight against climate change”
Check out this article detailing the role that wetlands can play in the fight against climate change!

Blue Carbon Horizons #research team study @UOW@Macquarie_Uni and @ANSTO that found coastal wetlands capture more carbon as sea levels rise has won the 2019 NSW Environment, Energy and Science (DPIE) Eureka Prize for #Environmental Research.

This paper is so cool! Not only does it show that costal wetlands help reduce eutrophication from anthropogenic sources, but it shows that mangrove costal wetlands have N removal rates 48% more than other wetlands! #ecosystemecologynova#teammangrove
Our latest paper in @STOTEN_journal shows evidence that coastal #wetlands help reduce eutrophication risk.
Just when you thought you couldn't love mangroves any more! 😍
