The Blue Carbon of Southern South West Atlantic salt marshes and their biotic and abiotic drivers

Organic carbon stocks, salt marsh plant biomass, crab burrow abundances and diameters. This data was generated by sampling at 11 salt marsh sites along 3000 km of coastal line in southern SW Atlantic coast in South America. Organic carbon stocks and burial rates extarcted from other publications and used to update global estimates are also included with their respective references. Values of biotic and abiotic drivers included in the Structural Equation Model (SEM) to evaluate their roles in belowground organic carbon stocks.
