Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• New Zealand's mangroves are expanding due to climate and human enablers. • Auckland's annual mangrove carbon sequestration increased fivefold from 1940 to 2020. • Mangroves colonising muddy, high-sediment areas sequester the most carbon. • Expanding mangroves can have rapid carbon accumulation at 212 g C m−2 yr−1. • Mangrove arrival may lower coastal aesthetic value but increases climatic benefits.
