The CIFOR brief, titled "Addressing climate change adaptation and mitigation in tropical wetland ecosystems of Indonesia," notes that coastal mangroves are important for both mitigation and adaptation, and calls for ecosystem-based or watershed-wide approaches for communities to manage wetlands.
January 2012: The Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) has released an information brief, titled “Addressing climate change adaptation and mitigation in tropical wetland ecosystems of Indonesia,” which calls for research to address information and communication gaps related to land use and carbon dynamics.
The brief notes that coastal mangroves are important for both mitigation and adaptation, and calls for ecosystem-based or watershed-wide approaches for communities to manage wetlands.
CIFOR is a member of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). [Publication: Addressing Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation in Tropical Wetland Ecosystems of Indonesia]
