Methane emissions partially offset “blue carbon” burial in mangroves

Organic matter burial in mangrove forests results in the removal and long-term storage of atmospheric CO(2), so-called “blue carbon.” However, some of this organic matter is metabolized and returned to the atmosphere as CH(4). Because CH(4) has a higher global warming potential than the CO(2) fixed...
