Project Objectives
Assess C stocks and sequestration rates in seagrass meadows
Assess C provenance and carbon fluxes in saltmarsh habitats
Assess the extent of BC habitats
Establish a long-term monitoring site for saltmarsh and seagrasses enabling experimental manipulation of climate change factors
Provide a detailed evaluation of “potential” BC ecosystems (pBCE)
Quantify the socio-economic, biodiversity and coastal protection aspects of BC habitats
Develop long-term management strategies for BC habitats in line with existing and future legislative mechanisms
