BLUEMap - Biodiversity, Livelihoods, and Understanding of Ecosystems Mangrove Project

Resumo: The BLUEMap project is a science-led, solutions-focused expedition assessing the ecological health, carbon storage, and socio-economic value of The Gambia’s mangrove ecosystems, which span ~100 km from the Atlantic coast to the estuarine parts of the River Gambia. These mangroves offer vital ecosystem services- shoreline protection, biodiversity habitat, carbon sequestration, food, timber, recreation, and medicinal resources – but are increasingly threatened by sea-level rise, land-use change, and upstream hydrological shifts.
