Our blue carbon research is featured on TV4 in Sweden today!
Blue carbon research & policy must go beyond seagrass, mangroves & saltmarsh - especially fjords, mudflats & coralline reefs!

A conceptual summary of the photosynthesis and calcification carbon transport pathways
🌊Out this week in #BiologyLetters! We show that #marine calcifying ecosystem engineers recycle more #carbon than previously thought aiding their role as #BlueCarbon ecosystems! 🦑🧪🌎⚒️🌱https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2023.0598 @hlburdett.bsky.social #JinhuaMao @umeaunimarine.bsky.social #umeauniversity
We are very excited to welcome Prof. Sinéad Collins from the University of Edinburgh! Through the 2-year UMF Borealis scholarship, she’ll use the #mesocosms @umeaunimarine.bsky.social to investigate which characteristics really make arctic #phytoplankton ”arctic”.

Great collaborative work with @hlburdett.bsky.social @umeaunimarine.bsky.social, former PhD student Kelly James (now at NatureScot), plus Peter Macreadie (RMIT) and Ian Davies (Marine Scotland Science)
New review in #GlobalChangeBiology! There's more to
#BlueCarbon than mangrove, seagrass & saltmarsh... #MudFlats, #coralline #algae reefs, #sediments & #CoralReef #Lagoons are all really important too! But lots still to work out for the best policies 🦑🧪🌎⚒️🌱 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
