Carbon burial in sediments below seaweed farms matches that of Blue Carbon habitats - Nature Climate Change
To understand the potential for seaweed as a Blue Carbon strategy, the authors quantify carbon burial under 20 globally distributed seaweed farms. They attribute an average of 1.06 ± 0.74 tCO2e ha−1 y...

Dynamics of CO2 and CH4 fluxes in Red Sea mangrove soils
Abstract. Red Sea mangroves have a lower carbon burial rate than the global average, whereby small greenhouse gas fluxes may offset a large proportion of carbon burial. Monthly soil core sampling was ...

Coral reef landscapes look beautiful from the air: they follow a fractal pattern expressing the Fibonacci series
We provide an inventory of the 1.5 m tropical, shallow-water reefs in the ocean. A very important tool for conservation

My first OAE experiment looked into how alkaline sources, olivine and slag, affected a juvenile kelp. A lot more olivine than slag was needed to increase the same amount of alkalinity. Olivine also made the water more turbid. Early results indicate growth was not affected by minerals.
