DESCRIPTION:[b] Joint DIASxSCC Lecture by Ana Queirós and Cintia Organo Qu
 intana [/b] [nl] [nl]\n\n[b]Ana Queirós: Seaweed blue carbon\, or is it? 
 [/b] [nl] [nl]\nNature-based solutions for climate change are much sought
  after strategies to use nature to address the causes and impacts of chan
 ges in our global climate system. Within this scope\, seaweed conservatio
 n and farming have been placed in the spotlight as potentially important 
 strategies. However\, large questions remain around the potential carbon 
 value of these habitats\, and their broader effects our ability to limit 
 climate change. [nl] [nl] \n\nIn this talk\, I will explore recent\, prom
 ising findings of the seaweed blue carbon research community\, and major 
 data gaps in our current understanding of the value of these strategies a
 s nature-based solutions for climate change. [nl] [nl]\n\n[b]Cintia Organ
 o Quintana: Climate regulation services of coastal vegetated ecosystems [
 /b] [nl] [nl]\n\nCoastal vegetated ecosystems\, such as seagrasses and sa
 lt marshes\, are well-known for their ability to store carbon\, commonly 
 referred to as "blue carbon." Despite decades of research focused on quan
 tifying carbon storage in these ecosystems globally\, little attention ha
 s been given to the losses of carbon through mineralization and export. [
 nl] [nl] \n\nDuring my presentation\, I will explore the climate mitigati
 on potential of seagrasses and salt marshes while addressing the knowledg
 e gaps in carbon cycling and greenhouse gas emissions of these vital ecos
 ystems. It is crucial to verify carbon budgets and accounting in blue car
 bon ecosystems to provide evidence-based knowledge to inform decision and
  policy-making at the local\, regional\, and national levels. [nl] [nl]\n
 \n\n[b] About: [/b] [nl] \n[b]Ana Queirós [/b]is an internationally recog
 nised expert on seaweed blue carbon and climate change ecology\, with exp
 ertise in field\, laboratory and modelling based approaches. She has for 
 the last 10 years led research advancing our understanding of the connect
 ivity between seaweed habitats and the seafloor.   [nl] [nl]\n\nAna Queir
 os has an extensive track record in the development of nature-based solut
 ions for ocean management\, and is leading research within globally distr
 ibuted programmes that aim to help practitioners build climate resilience
  into marine conservation\, restoration\, harvesting and marine spatial p
 lanning\, including important blue carbon habitat management (e.g. UNESCO
  Man & Biosphere programme collaborations). [nl][nl]\n \n[b]Cintia Organo
  Quintana's[/b] (SDU) research covers topics from species-specific effect
 s of benthic marine invertebrates\, such as polychaetes\, bivalves and cr
 ustaceans\, to ecosystem level responses to diverse disturbances (e.g. po
 llution\, hypoxia\, eutrophication\, physical stress\, climate change and
  bioengineering solutions for restoration of coastal habitats).  [nl][nl]
 \n\nCintia O. Quintana is also the PI of the SDU Climate Cluster's Elite 
 Centre of Aquatic Nature-based Solutions for Climate Change adaptation an
 d mitigation. The centre works with methods based on ecosystem restoratio
 n and/or in combination to soft engineering interventions to tackle clima
 te change by working with people and nature towards sustainable developme
 nt and net-zero emission. The centre's research outcomes will include ana
 lysis of ecosystem functions and associated valuation of ecosystem servic
 es\, and guidelines on the cost-effectiveness in upscaling aquatic nature
 -based solutions\, addressing opportunities and challenges. [nl] [nl]\n\n
 The lecture is presented by DIAS in collaboration with the SDU Climate Cl
 uster and takes place in the DIAS Auditorium\, Fioniavej 34 from 11:15 to
  12:!5. Everybody is welcome and no registration is needed. \n\n[nl][nl]
