NSW Blue Carbon Stored within Coastal Quaternary Sediments

Created 24/06/2025

Updated 24/06/2025

Storage is defined as the volume of blue carbon within coastal Quaternary sediments. Accordingly, estuaries that are more mature and have expansive alluvial and estuarine floodplains are more likely to store larger volumes of fossil blue carbon, whilst coastal barrier sediments have conditions less favourable for blue carbon storage.
