TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results from the most comprehensive compilation of Holocene peat soil properties with associated carbon and nitrogen accumulation rates for northern peatlands, which consists of 268 peat cores from 215 sites located north of 45°N.

TL;DR: It is suggested that coastal wetlands characteristic of tectonically stable coastlines have lower carbon storage owing to a lack of accommodation space and that carbon sequestration increases according to the vertical and lateral accommodation space created by RSLR.

TL;DR: This article examined the global relationship between peatland carbon accumulation rates during the last millennium and planetary-scale climate space and found a positive relationship between carbon accumulation and cumulative photosynthetically active radiation during the growing season for mid-to high-latitude peatlands in both hemispheres.

TL;DR: A comprehensive field and modeling study indicates vulnerability of tidal wetlands to sea-level rise on the U.S. Pacific coast is highly vulnerable to end-of-century submergence, with resulting extensive loss of habitat.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed a regional carbon budget for Eastern North America using historical data, empirical models, remote-sensing algorithms, and process-based models, showing that coastal carbon budgets should explicitly include tidal wetlands, estuaries, shelf waters and the linkages between them; ignoring any of them may produce a biased picture of coastal carbon cycling.
