Extended Data Fig. 1: Iterative approach for evaluating and selecting blue carbon targets to inform NDCs.
From: Evidence-based target setting informs blue carbon strategies for nationally determined contributions
The workflow begins on the right-hand side of the figure with an evaluation of potential blue carbon targets based on quantification of carbon storage and sequestration and optimization of co-benefits. The analytical approach is repeated on the left-hand side of the figure to assess the benefits of selected targets. The entire process is meant to be iterative to inform future updates to a country’s NDCs.
