Extended Data Fig. 2

Global map with positive and negative net blue carbon wealth redistributions (surpluses and deficits). b, Bar chart with ten largest donor and recipient countries. Wealth redistributions are calculated using CSCC averaged over all damage functions for the scenario combinations SSP2/RCP6.0 with one growth-adjusted discount rate (pure rate of time preference per year, ρ = 2%; elasticity of marginal utility substitution, μ = 1.5). Error bars represent uncertainties in global sequestration rates and estimated CSCC reflected by standard errors.
