Estuarine wetland restoration: a trade-off between carbon sequestration and methane emissions

Jan 8, 2025

AbstractSupport for coastal wetland restoration projects that consider carbon storage as a climate mitigation benefit is growing as coastal wetlands are sites of substantial carbon sequestration. However, the climate footprint of wetland restoration remains controversial as wetlands can also be large sources of methane. This talk focuses on the carbon flows into and out of three restored wetlands in ...
