This IUCN and Natural England report, "The Management of Natural Coastal Carbon Sinks" examines the role of coastal habitats as carbon sinks, the losses of these sinks over time and opportunities to restore coastal habitats to mitigate climate change.
The report covers the potential benefits to the climate of restoring mangroves, salt marshes, sea grass beds and kelp beds. It also examines coral reefs.
Restoration of these habitats for climate mitigation purposes would all have beneficial impacts on fisheries. Edited by Dan Laffoley and Gabriel Grimsditch, Nov 2009.
