“Wetlands in a Changing Climate: Science, Policy and Management,” Wetlands 38, 183–205 (2018) by Moomaw, W.R., Chmura, G.L., Davies, G.T. et al. (doi.org/10.1007/s13157-018-1023-8)
Wetlands moderate climate change, and recent research cited here demonstrates that wetlands actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere. But “wetland scientists, ecosystem managers and natural resource policy-makers are unaware of the important C storage role of wetlands,” and “many climate scientists, as well as national and international policy makers, undervalue the role that wetland management might play.”
