Total alkalinity production in a mangrove ecosystem reveals an overlooked Blue Carbon component
Abstract Mangroves have the capacity to sequester organic carbon (Corg) in their sediments permanently. However, the carbon budget of mangroves is also affected by the total alkalinity (TA) budget. Principally, TA emitted from carbonate sediment dissolution is a perennial sink of atmospheric CO2. Th...
