Project: Fate of Coastal Wetland Carbon Under Increasing Sea Level Rise: Using the Subsiding Louisiana Coast as a Proxy for Future World-Wide Sea Level Projections (Submerged Wetland Carbon)


Abstract

Nine soil cores (1 m deep) were collected from three sites within Barataria Bay, LA (USA), spring 2017. Both the biogeochemical properties of the soils with depth were determined, as well as the impacts of the introduction of oxygenated seawater on carbon mineralization rates.
