Code in R: Safeguarding seagrass blue carbon sinks

Seagrass beds, crucial blue carbon ecosystems in the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea, are facing severe degradation. The linkage between their carbon sink function and distribution dynamics urgently needs clarification. This study developed a quantitative assessment framework for seagrass beds by integrating ensemble species distribution models with the InVEST model. Combining with carbon density data, the spatio-temporal characteristics of suitable seagrass habitats and carbon storage were analyzed.
