Of these investible areas, 1.1–1.3 Mha can be financially sustainable over a 30-year time frame based on carbon prices of US$5–9.4 t<sup>−1</sup>CO<sub>2</sub>e. This contributes up to 29.8 MtCO<sub>2</sub>e year<sup>−1</sup> and yields a return on investment of ∼US$3.7 billion per year. Our results point toward a disproportionately large potential of blue carbon finance that can be leveraged to meet national-level climate mitigation goals, particularly if combined with other conservation interventions that further safeguard carbon stocks and biodiversity in these irreplaceable forests. Robust information on return on investment highlights the potential for currently underutilized tropical coastal carbon credit projects.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Global potential and limits of mangrove blue carbon for climate change mitigation","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-04 01:31:46.387105","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"forest protection; Paris Agreement; carbon financing; voluntary carbon markets; nationally determined contribution; coastal wetlands; carbon credits; payment for ecosystem services; additionality","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2021,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2022-11-16","DateCreate":"2022-11-16","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000644724700003","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.cub.2021.01.070"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":359259,"PubliDate":2021,"Pagination":"1737-1743.e3","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"31","Issue":"8","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":72005,"SerRR":"Current Biology.
