本研究は、インド・ナビムンバイのマングローブ生態系における炭素貯留量と隔離速度を評価。Avicennia marinaが優占するマングローブ林の総炭素貯留量は34.15～39.72 t ha⁻¹で、土壌有機炭素が全体の70～89%を占める。隔離速度は168～180 g C m⁻² yr⁻¹と森林より高く、都市化や開発が脅威であるため保全の緊急性を示す。

This study assesses carbon stocks and sequestration rates in mangrove ecosystems of Navi Mumbai, India. Mangroves dominated by Avicennia marina store 34.15-39.72 t ha⁻¹ total carbon, with soil organic carbon comprising 70-89%. Sequestration rates of 168-180 g C m⁻² yr⁻¹ exceed terrestrial forests, but urbanization threatens these blue carbon ecosystems, underscoring the need for conservation.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Mangrove ecosystems represent one of the most carbon-rich biomes globally, storing significantly more carbon per unit area than terrestrial forests. This study investigates carbon sequestration potential in plants, with specific emphasis on mangrove forests in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. The research synthesizes data from recent studies (2014-2025) on carbon stocks, sequestration rates, and storage mechanisms in mangrove ecosystems. Mangroves in the Thane Creek and coastal regions of Navi Mumbai, dominated by Avicennia marina, demonstrate substantial carbon storage capacity, with total carbon stocks ranging from 34.15 to 39.72 t ha⁻¹. Soil organic carbon (SOC) comprises approximately 70-89% of total ecosystem carbon, highlighting the critical role of sediments in long-term carbon storage. The study examines allometric methods, remote sensing techniques, and soil carbon analysis approaches used for biomass and carbon estimation. Key findings indicate that mangrove ecosystems sequester carbon at rates of 168-180 g C m⁻² yr⁻¹, substantially higher than terrestrial forests. However, anthropogenic pressures including urbanization, land conversion, and developmental projects threaten these vital blue carbon ecosystems. The research underscores the urgent need for conservation and restoration of mangrove forests in Navi Mumbai as a nature-based solution for climate change mitigation while providing co-benefits of coastal protection, biodiversity conservation, and livelihood support
