Abstract/Summary:
The importance of mangroves in providing ecological services has been highlighted in discussions on global climate change, in particular with reference to Reduced Emissions from Forest Degradation and Deforestation Plus (REDD+). Mangroves have a relatively high Greenhouse Gas (GHG) removal capacity and thus higher potential to earn carbon revenues. The aim of this paper is to examine the potential for mangrove carbon projects in Vietnam.
