Forestation (afforestation and reforestation) could mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon within biomass and soils. However, global mitigation from forestation remains uncertain owing to varying estimates of carbon sequestration rates (notably in soil) and land availability. In this study, we developed global maps of soil carbon change that reveal carbon gains and losses with forestation, primarily in the topsoil.

Modelled pathways consistent with the Paris Agreement goals to mitigate warming typically include the large-scale application of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), which can include both land- and marine-based CDR methods. However, the Earth system responses and feedbacks to scaling up and/or combining different CDR methods remain understudied. Here, these are assessed by employing two Earth System Models, with a multifactorial setup of 42 emission-driven simulations covering the whole spectrum of Afforestation/Reforestation (0-927 Mha) and of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (0-18 Pmol) over the 21 century.

Coastal vegetation serves as a protective buffer against the deleterious impacts of storm surges, influencing the dynamic exchange of energy and matter and mediating the lateral transport of carbon from land to the ocean. Comprehensive understanding of coastal vegetation dynamics is crucial for sustaining the ecological and biogeochemical functions of coastal ecosystems. Despite the considerable influence of land cover change (LCC) on vegetation greenness, quantifying this impact along the rapidly developing Chinese coasts amid significant social and economic changes over the past decades remains inadequately addressed.

Artificially planted mangroves are widely used for tidal flat restoration, but their effectiveness in restoring these ecosystems remains unclear. Macrobenthos, as key indicators of tidal flat ecosystem health, can reflect changes in environmental conditions and quality resulting from the introduction of artificial mangroves. This study aimed to investigate the ecological restoration effects of artificially planted mangroves in northern China by surveying macrobenthic communities across four regions in June 2023.
