Policy Brief 5 : Blue Forests in a Future Climate

European blue forests - including saltmarshes, seagrass meadows and canopy-forming macroalgae - form fringes along the coastlines from the intertidal to the subtidal as deep as water clarity and other habitat conditions allow. They support biodiversity, constitute a coastal nutrient filter and contr...

Sumario:European blue forests - including saltmarshes, seagrass meadows and canopy-forming macroalgae - form fringes along the coastlines from the intertidal to the subtidal as deep as water clarity and other habitat conditions allow. They support biodiversity, constitute a coastal nutrient filter and contribute to carbon uptake and storage in the marine environment while also protecting coastlines against flooding and erosion and buffering extreme temperatures and acidification.
