TL;DR: It is suggested that regeneration may help restore carbon stocks back to pre-disturbed levels over decadal to century time scales only, with a faster rate for biomass recovery than for soil carbon stocks.

TL;DR: Four approaches that are being used increasingly or could be deployed in Southeast Asia to ensure sustainable livelihoods and biodiversity conservation are considered, including payments for ecosystem services (PES), which hold great promise for mangrove conservation.

TL;DR: Structural dynamics and carbon storage gains from mangrove sites that have undergone rehabilitation are reported to ascertain whether reforestation can complement conservation activities and warrant project investment and highlight the importance of geomorphic and biophysical site selection if the primary purpose of EMR is intended to maximize carbon sequestration gains.

TL;DR: Heterogeneity in biophysical conditions and geomorphic position exerted a strong influence on GHG flux, with the longer hydroperiod and higher soil moisture content of seaward fringing mangroves correlated with decreased fluxes, which is an important consideration for forest carbon project proponents seeking to maximise creditable GHG emissions reductions and removals.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of land use and land cover change (LULCC) activities such as aquaculture, alongside biophysical disturbances such as sea level rise and cyclones on mangrove carbon stocks and carbon fluxes are discussed.
