The Significance of Quantifying Carbon Capture Capacity and Conservation Potential of Salt Marshes: A Proposal for Río Negro Province, Argentina

Abstract

Quantifying the carbon capture capacity and conservation potential of salt marshes is crucial for addressing climate change and protecting these valuable ecosystems. Robust methodologies and comprehensive monitoring programs are essential for understanding their functioning, identifying threats, and implementing effective restoration strategies. By integrating scientific knowledge, public awareness, and sustainable management practices, we can safeguard salt marshes and contribute to global sustainability goals.
