Global carbon stocks and potential emissions due to mangrove deforestation from 2000 to 2012
Stuart E. Hamilton, Daniel Friess
Mangrove forests store high densities of organic carbon compared to other forested ecosystems. High carbon storage coupled with high rates of deforestation means that mangroves con…
The carbon holdings of northern Ecuador's mangrove forests
Stuart E. Hamilton, John Lovette, Mercy Borbor +1
Within a GIS environment, we combine field measures of mangrove diameter, mangrove species distribution, and mangrove density with remotely sensed measures of mangrove location and…
Ecuador's mangrove forest carbon stocks: A spatiotemporal analysis of living carbon holdings and their depletion since the advent of commercial aquaculture
Stuart Hamilton, John Lovette
In this paper we estimate the living carbon lost from Ecuador's mangrove forests since the advent of export-focused shrimp aquaculture. We use remote sensing techniques to delineat…
Creation of a high spatiotemporal resolution global database of continuous mangrove forest cover for the 21st Century (CGMFC-21)
Stuart Hamilton, Daniel Casey
The goal of this research is to provide high resolution local, regional, national and global estimates of annual mangrove forest area from 2000 through to 2012. To achieve this we…
