The potential of Blue Carbon in this endeavour has been actively explored in recent years with significant efforts both in quantifying the stocks and fluxes and in establishing mechanisms for monetisation in international carbon markets. As a first key step, in this workshop we will focus on the necessary technical knowledge to estimate the size and growth rate of the carbon sink associated with seagrass meadows and saltmarshes, including (i) sampling design, (ii) fieldwork, (iii) laboratory work, and (iv) numerical procedures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dates: <\/strong>28 \u2013 30 October 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Place: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/vMeadH69u6wAkL23A\">Centre for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CEAB-CSIC)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Acc.
