Wetland is crucial in supporting biodiversity conservation and climate change regulation. A wetland ecosystem has been influenced by anthropogenic driven climate change. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the role of wetlands for climate change mitigation and biodiversity conserva...

Wetlands are vital for human survival. They are among the world’s most productive environments; cradles of biological diversity that provide the water and productivity upon which countless species of plants and animals depend for survival. Wetlands are indispensable for the countless benefits or “eco...

Based on data from 335 field-scale CWs, hybrid CWs (which use two or more types of CW during water treatment) are the most effective for water-quality improvement and greenhouse gas mitigation, removing 76%, 63% and 72% of organic matter, nitrogen and phosphorus, respectively (based on ...
She is a wetland ecosystem ecologist studying the response of wetland plant communities and biogeochemical cycles to human disturbance, how that disturbance can be quantified and then reversed by ecological restoration, and the role of wetlands in climate mitigation. ...

The importance of coastal wetland and near-shore marine ecosystem carbon pools for climate change mitigation are described in chapter three, with a brief overview of the status of these systems, including drivers of change and implications of degradation of carbon pools, provided in Chapter four. ...
Additionally, treatment wetlands can provide ancillary benefits beyond the removal of pollutants, including leisure, education, conservation, and climate change mitigation. Depending on the context where the technology will be implemented, treatment wetlands may demand similar or higher capital cost ...
