Impact of Ecological Restoration on Carbon Sink Function in Coastal Wetlands: A Review

Water, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 17(4), P. 488 - 488

Published: Feb. 9, 2025

Reducing carbon emissions and increasing sinks have become the core issues of international community. Although coastal blue ecosystems (such as mangroves, seagrass beds, salt marshes large algae) account for less than 0.5% seafloor area, they contain more 50% marine reserves, occupying an important position in global cycle. However, with rapid development economy continuous expansion human activities, wetlands suffered serious damage, their sequestration capacity has been greatly limited. Ecological restoration emerged a key measure to reverse this trend. Through series measures, including restoring hydrological conditions damaged wetlands, cultivating suitable plant species, effectively managing invasive species rebuilding habitats, ecological is committed functions service value. Therefore, paper first reviews research status influencing factors wetland sinks, discusses objectives, types measures various projects, analyzes impact these projects on sink function, proposes suggestions incorporating enhancement into restoration.

Factors driving carbon accumulation in forest biomass and soil organic carbon across natural forests and planted forests in China

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 6

Published: Jan. 8, 2024

Introduction Forests play a pivotal role within the global carbon cycle. However, how to enhance storage in existing forests remains unclear. Methods In this study, we conduct comprehensive analysis of data from 2,948 forest sites across China. Utilizing structural equation modeling (SEM), investigate intricate relationship between climate, tree species diversity, stand structure, function traits, initial biomass stocks (BCi), soil organic (Soil C content), and accumulation (ΔBC) (ΔSOC) both natural (NF, n = 1,910) planted (PF, 1,038). Results Our findings underscore critical influence diversity structure drivers direct indirect accumulation, with distinct emerging based on pools NF PF. Specifically, increasing its minimum maximum value through management-results 14.798 tC/ha reduction BC 0.686 SOC NF. Conversely, amplifies PF by 0.338 0.065 tC/ha, respectively. Enhancing structure-such as density-results 231.727 NF, 10.668 64.008 increment Discussion Overall, our results indicate that higher density age-group limits further current contrast, low development potential forests. To sequestration capacity, China should change policy completely banning logging Natural need thinning reduced while increase density.

Abstract Mitigating climate change is increasingly seen as a pressing global concern. The current and warming issues are leading to growing demand for information data on carbon. Forests one of the biggest carbon sinks planet. play role in lowering levels CO2 air. Teak plantation forests with teak trees that have relatively long harvesting period (long rotation) so possibility components absorbed from atmosphere will be stored large enough plant tissue, ecological potential storage time. type tree grows quickly has amount biomass. Even though it widely recognized store carbon, there still limited available their across different locations environmental conditions. This study aims calculate average stock identify most suitable allometric model community Sungai Siring Village. found mean per hectare was 0.114 kg/ha, effective utilizing equation B = 0.0143 (D) 2.4686 using independent variable. Where (above-ground biomass) D (diameter at breast height). an RMSE value 0.391 NRMSE 0.088, accurate category because less than 10%.

Research on accurate and effective identification of ecosystem surface based on human footprint index

Ecological Indicators, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 162, P. 112013 - 112013

Published: April 12, 2024

Ecosystem surface plays an important role in maintaining ecological balance and supporting economic development. Accurate effective identification of ecosystem with different uses allows for better categorization management contributes to the orderly restoration ecosystems. In this study, Human Footprint Index (HFI) is constructed by comprehensively considering factors biodiversity, human activity impacts, geometric features, combined multi-factor knowledge constraints such as changes land cover. We carry out accurate analysis surfaces, using Changzhou City's tree cover a test area. The results show that: (1) degree affected activities City varies greatly, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) elevation are main affecting level HFI. (2) distribution native artificial uneven, more than 95% surfaces distributed peripheral areas city higher elevations farther away from center. Artificial likely be found high GDP frequent activities, mainly urban centers large proportion buildings along roads. (3) overall accuracy 83.20%, which center area slightly lower agricultural production land. study provide method objective, surface, can improve enthusiasm local governments fulfilling their protection duties contribute efficient achievement goal civilization construction.
