Organic matter decomposition along coastal wetland landscape gradient from tidal freshwater forested wetland to oligohaline marsh in Southeastern U.S.A. (2010-2011)

Coastal wetlands significantly contribute to global carbon storage potential. Sea-level rise and other climate change-induced disturbances threaten coastal wetland sustainability and carbon storage capacity. It is critical that we understand the mechanisms controlling wetland carbon loss so that we can predict and manage these resources in anticipation of climate change.滨海湿地（Coastal wetlands）对全球碳储潜力具有显著贡献。海平面上升及其他气候变化引发的扰动正威胁着滨海湿地的可持续性与碳储能力。明晰调控湿地碳流失的机制，从而在气候变化背景下对这类资源开展预测与管理，这一点至关重要。
