Capitalizing on the global financial interest in blue carbon (2022)
Journal Article
Friess, D., Howard, J., Huxham, M., Macreadie, P. I., & Ross, F. (2022). Capitalizing on the global financial interest in blue carbon. PLOS Climate, 1(8), e0000061. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pclm.0000061

Natural climate solutions are crucial interventions to help countries and companies achieve their net-zero carbon emissions ambitions. Blue carbon ecosystems such as mangroves, seagrasses, and tidal marshes have attracted particular attention for the... Read More about Capitalizing on the global financial interest in blue carbon.

When nature needs a helping hand: different levels of human intervention for mangrove (re-)establishment (2022)
Journal Article
Zimmer, M., Ajonina, G. N., Aldrie Amir, A., Crgagg, S. M., Crooks, S., Dahdouh-Guebas, F., …Wodehouse, D. (2022). When nature needs a helping hand: different levels of human intervention for mangrove (re-)establishment. Frontiers in Forests and Global

Protecting existing mangrove forests is a priority for global conservation because of the wide range of services that these coastal forests provide to humankind. Despite the recent reduction in global rates of mangrove loss, high historical loss rate...

Stocks and productivity of dead wood in mangrove forests: A systematic literature review (2022)
Journal Article
Mwihaki Mugi, L., Kiss, D., Gitundu Kairo, J., & Huxham, M. R. (2022). Stocks and productivity of dead wood in mangrove forests: A systematic literature review. Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 5, Article 767337. https://doi.org/10.3389/ffgc.2022.7

The functional and ecological importance of dead wood in terrestrial forests is widely recognized and researched. In contrast, much less is known about dead wood in mangrove forests, despite its known or demonstrated contribution to key ecological pr...

Integrating Blue: How do we make Nationally Determined Contributions work for both blue carbon and local coastal communities? (2022)
Journal Article
Dencer-Brown, A. M., Shilland, R., Friess, D., Herr, D., Benson, L., Berry, N. J., …Huxham, M. (2022). Integrating Blue: How do we make Nationally Determined Contributions work for both blue carbon and local coastal communities?. AMBIO: A Journal of the

Blue Carbon Ecosystems (BCEs) help mitigate and adapt to climate change but their integration into policy, such as Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), remains underdeveloped. Most BCE conservation requires community engagement, hence communit...

Composition and structure of the mangrove fish and crustacean communities of Vanga Bay, Kenya (2022)
Journal Article
Wanjiru, C., Rueckert, S., & Huxham, M. (2022). Composition and structure of the mangrove fish and crustacean communities of Vanga Bay, Kenya. Western Indian Ocean journal of marine science, 20(2), 25-44. https://doi.org/10.4314/wiojms.v20i2.3

Mangroves support coastal fisheries, particularly by providing nurseries for juvenile fish. However, much remains unknown about the fish and crustacean communities in mangroves and about the lifecycles and behaviours of individual species. This study...
