Carbon Cycling in Mangrove Ecosystem of Western Bay of Bengal (India)

Carbon cycling in the mangrove ecosystem is one of important processes determining potential coastal vegetation (mangroves), sediment, and adjoining waters to carbon absorption. This paper investigates storage capacity five dominant species (Avicenia marina, Avicenia officinalis, Excoecaria agallocha, Rhizophora mucronata, Xylocarpous granatum) on east coast Indian along with role they play phenomenon. Soil water parameters were analyzed simultaneously Above Ground Biomass (AGB) (AGC) values for 10 selected stations along. The total (TC) calculated from study area varied 51.35 ± 6.77 322.47 110.79 tons per hectare a mean 117.89 28.90 432.64 106.05 dioxide equivalent (CO2e). alarm Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change reducing emissions has been addressed by calculating amount stored biotic (mangroves) abiotic (soil water) compartments. focuses technical investigations factors that control process mangroves. blue will help policymakers develop sustainable relationship between marine resource management inhabitants so trading markets can be developed, balanced.
