NOAA ’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System Science Collaborative, managed by the University of Michigan Water Center, is pleased to announce the outcome of this year ’s competition

This document helps guide coastal and land managers in understanding the ways by which coastal blue carbon can help achieve coastal management goals.

This document outlines procedures to use the Methodology for Tidal Wetland and Seagrass Restoration, approved by the Verified Carbon Standard, to estimate net greenhouse gas emission reductions and removals resulting from restoration of coastal wetlands.

Oysters are the tiny superheroes of coastal environments. They enhance water quality, create habitat, and protect shorelines from storms and erosion. Along the Pacific Coast, native oysters are in decline, due in part to sedimentation, inadequate protection, and unsustainable harvests.

This article, which appeared in Global Change Biology, discusses findings from a study that quantified total ecosystem carbon stocks of major tidal wetland types in the Pacific Northwest.
