"KEY POINTS
• Basalts and pebbly to cobbly sandstones have been dredged from the Fairway Ridge, Coral Sea
• Dating of the rocks and interpretation of magnetic anomalies allow mapping of major geological units across North Zealandia
• This work completes offshore reconnaissance geological mapping of the entire 5 million square km Zealandia continent…”

When we disturb the seabed, we get more #carbonDioxide and increase the risk of oxygen depletion
A new study from Aarhus University shows that disturbances of the seabed from #trawling equipment and #dredging can lead to a series of negative consequences for both the marine #environment and the global ecosystem.

The Importance of #Mangroves

#Florida mangroves provide protection from #storms, nurseries for #wildlife and recreation for people.

Threats to #MangroveForests

"Unfortunately, there are many challenges that place mangrove forests under threat. Human impact such as #dredging, #filling, #WaterPollution from #herbicides and #development can lead to mangrove erosion and #HabitatDestruction. When mangrove forests are cleared and destroyed, they release massive amounts of #CarbonDioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to #ClimateChange."
