Shelf Seas: The Engine of Productivity
- Publication Abstract
-
This report summarises key policy-relevant results arising from the NERC-Defra Shelf Sea Biogeochemistry Programme (SSB), 2013-2018. It focuses on current scientific understanding of the shelf seas around Britain: the key processes that maintain their status, variability and response to impacts (climate and human); their potential to remove and store carbon (‘blue carbon’); and the lessons for policy in monitoring, managing and valuing these precious habitats. These findings provide evidence for Defra, the devolved administrations and other stakeholders to help ensure the sustainable use of the UK marine environment
