A7.2 Blue carbon
Research actions to implement potential blue carbon programs in Thurston County.
There’s a global overview at The Blue Carbon Initiative; they also publish a manual: “Coastal Blue Carbon: methods for assessing carbon stocks and emissions factors in mangroves, tidal salt marshes, and seagrass meadows”.
DNR’s Aquatic Science group has ongoing research programs focused on the nearshore marine habitat in Puget Sound and aquatic lands restoration.
