HOW WE STUDY SEAGRASS Carbon Sequestration

Join us in the latest episode of Explained as Wells Howe, BTW Blue Carbon Program Manager, walks us through the process of collecting sediment cores from seagrass meadows!

We take representative seagrass samples to understand the total carbon storage capacity of these incredible plants. Each core from this expedition is then sent off to our partners to be processed with a loss on ignition methodology.

Let us know any other questions you have about our science in the field and chime in on what you would love to learn about on future episodes of Explained!
