Blanes (Girona).- An international work led by the Center for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CEAB-CSIC) has served to create the first global inventory of carbon retained by underwater prairie. According to CEAB-CSIC, the data are structured by regions, countries and types of prairie, which are one of the most biodiverse ecosystems by storing more than 10% of the carbon dioxide that the oceans absorb. The results show that these submarine forests s…
The underwater slopes, also known as blue forests, are one of the most productive and biodiverse ecosystems on the planet. Although they occupy less than 0.2% of the world’s ocean, they are able to store more than 10% of the carbon dioxide that the oceans absorb each year. Now, an international work led by the Center for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CEAB-CSIC) translates into figures the contribution of these blue forests to combat climate change…
