G3ECA

International conference in Blue Carbon 🌊 Registration is now open for the international conference: Blue Carbon: From Science to Public Decisions, to Achieve Carbon Neutrality in Coastal Areas 📅 18–21 May 2027 📍 La Rochelle, France lienss.univ-larochelle.fr/Colloque-int...

¿Cómo percibes el estado de nuestras costas? ¡Tu opinión puede ayudar a mejorar la conservación de nuestras costas! Queremos saber qué piensa la ciudadanía sobre el estado, las amenazas y los beneficios de los ecosistemas litorales españoles. 📅 Hasta el 30 de noviembre 🔗 forms.gle/LXKGbhtZ88Js...

Did you know that some of Spain and Portugal's most important #carbon reservoirs lie beneath the sea? Seagrass meadows and tidal marshes store around 95 Tg CO₂-eq, with more than 98% locked away in coastal sediments. Check out the Blue carbon inventory here: doi.org/10.1016/j.ma...

This week we introduce the co-coordinator of our network of experts in Blue Carbon: #FernandoBrun! Based at the @univcadiz.bsky.social, Fernando leads the #labbluecarbon, where his work spans seagrass ecology, coastal habitat restoration, and the development of innovative Blue Carbon initiatives.

New study published in #Ecosystems A global meta-analysis of >1,500 comparisons shows that seagrass ecosystem services are not uniform. Carbon storage, pollution mitigation and biodiversity support vary substantially among genera and environmental settings 👉 doi.org/10.1007/s100...

Introducing Miguel Ángel Mateo, one of the pioneers of Blue Carbon science and the coordinator of the G3ECA network

Finally, introducing ourselves on Bluesky! 🌊🌱 We are G3ECA, the Spanish Group of Experts in Blue Carbon Ecosystems, bringing together Spain’s growing Blue Carbon community. Follow us to learn about Blue Carbon ecosystems and stay up to date with the latest research, restoration projects, and more
