| Title | Global Patterns in Marine Sediment Carbon Stocks |
| Creator | Atwood, Trisha B. Witt, Andrew W. Mayorga, Juan Hammill, Edd Sala, Enric |
| Description | To develop more accurate global carbon (C) budgets and to better inform management of human activities in the ocean, we need high-resolution estimates of marine C stocks. Here we quantify global marine sedimentary C stocks at a 1-km resolution, and find that marine sediments store ∼ 3117 (3006–3209) Pg C in the top 1 m (more than twice that of terrestrial soils). Sediments in abyss/basin zones account for 75% of the global marine sediment C stock, and 52% of that stock is within the 200-mile... |
