Blue Carbon Storage in a Northern Temperate Estuary Subject to Habitat Loss and Chronic Habitat Disturbance: Cowichan Estuary, British Columbia, Canada

Blue Carbon Storage in a Northern Temperate Estuary Subject to Habitat Loss and Chronic Habitat Disturbance: Cowichan Estuary, British Columbia, Canada

Vegetated coastal ecosystems can contribute greatly to long-term carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emission mitigation, providing a strong argument for their protection and restoration. We investigated carbon sequestration in the Cowichan Estuary, a temperate estuary on Vancouver Island, Canad...
