Slow decomposition of deadroots and lack of oxygen limit loss of carbon to theatmosphere (as CO2) and deposition of sedimentburiesany carbon-rich material(such as dead Mangroves—andthe ecosystem services theyprovide—are of critical importance on local andglobal scales for biodiversity and humanity (Leal& Spalding 2022; Bunting et al. 2022; Kauffman &Donato 2012; McLeod et al. 2011). Globally, theysustain 4.1 million small-scale fishers (Ermgassenet al. 2021), buffer coastlines against storm surge— Duringthe late 20th century,mangroves cameunder increasing pressure from habitat destructioninthe face of urban expansion(deforestation,coastal squeeze, and pollution; Goldberg et al. 2020;McLeod et al. 2011) and impacts from atmosphericandmarine warming(erosion,drowning out,loss of nursery habitat; Claes et al. 2022; McLeodetal.2011).Since 1980,around 20–35 percent Mangroves are recognized for their ability to storesignificant amounts of carbon despite their relativelysmall geographic extent compared with terrestrialecosystems. As an ecosystem service, carbon storagecan have profound impacts on local economies, both Theclimate mitigation potential of mangroveecosystemsthrough the removal and storageofcarbon has prompted strong interest in thedevelopment of policies and tools to protect, restore,and even enhance mangroves’ natural carbon stocks(Friess et al. 2019; Sanderman et al. 2018; Howard etal. 2017). Developing such policies has increasingly especially nat
