Alongi1st ed. 2018.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2018.1 online resource (96 pages)SpringerBriefs in Climate Studies,2213-784X3-319-91697-1 1. Intro -- 2. Blue carbon -- 3. Mitigation strategies -- 4. Adaptation and coping -- 5. A critical question: Will blue carbon projects make a difference?.This work summarizes the science and management of a rapidly expanding topic in climate science, namely adaptation and mitigation. The term 'blue carbon' refers to the rates, pathways and volumes of greenhouse carbon sequestered in coastal estuarine and marine ecosystems such as salt marshes, mangroves and seagrass meadows. Blue carbon and its vital role in climate change mitigation are central to this book. Readers find summaries and analysis of both the basic scientific data and data from blue carbon field projects, and a practical guide on how to manage a successful blue carbon field project. There is a discussion on how to maximize the carbon sequestration and consideration of whether blue carbon projects make a difference. The work is not only of interest to scholars involved in climate science, but also those in the marine sciences, and those in ecosystem ecology, biogeochemistry; geochemistry; estuarine and marine plant ecology.SpringerBriefs in Climate Studies,2213-784XClimate changeGeobiologyEcosystemsClimate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Biogeoscienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G35010Climate Change Management and Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/314000Ecosystemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L1904XClimate change.Geobiology.Ecosystems.Climate Change.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Biogeosciences.Climate Change Management and Policy.Ecosystems.577.144Alongi Daniel Mauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1064478MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299391303321Blue Carbon2538402UNINA
