Organic carbon mineralization, stock, and sequestration in an unvegetated mud flat and adjacent Suaeda japonica marsh of Garolim Bay, Yellow Sea: insights from δ13C–DIC
To elucidate the biogeochemical linkage between organic carbon (OC) mineralization and sequestration in coastal wetlands, we investigated sediment and pore-water biogeochemistry, 210 Pb-derived sedimentation rates, and δ 13 C–DIC (Keeling plot) signatures in an unvegetated mud flat (UMF) and an adjacent Suaeda j...
