Abstract. Mangroves are widely recognised as key ecosystems for climate change mitigation they capture and store significant amounts of sediment organic carbon (SOC). Yet, there is incomplete knowledge on how sources SOC their differential preservation vary between mangrove sites in relation to environmental gradients. To address this, depth profiles were sampled from ranging river-dominated marine-dominated including old young the Guayas delta (Ecuador). The stable isotope ratios (δ13C)...
The fragility of geographically isolated islands stresses the necessity evaluating current situation, identifying temporal trends and suggesting appropriate conservation measures. To support this, we assessed freshwater quality three stream basins on San Cristóbal (Galapagos) for two consecutive years. Abiotic conditions generally complied with existing guidelines, except pH in Cerro Gato basin (<6.5) orthophosphate concentrations 2016 (>0.12 mg P L−1). Macroinvertebrate communities...
Mangroves are increasingly recognized as an effective nature-based coastal defence strategy. Mangrove trees proven to reduce the height of propagating long-period waves such storm tides and extreme sea levels. Existing empirical studies, however, limited small scales (~10&#178;-10&#179; m) or only cover continuous belts mangroves. Here we present water level measurements along a 20 km channel in surrounding mangrove forests for regular neap- spring natural forest Guayas Delta,...
