Updating global coastal wetland areas presented in Davidson and Finlayson (2018)
View through CrossRef
Global and regional areas and trends in area of unvegetated tidal flats, salt marshes, mangroves and seagrass beds are updated and corrected from those published in Davidson and Finlayson (2018). The global area of coastal wetlands is now estimated as a minimum of 1.42 × 106 km2, ~8.9–9.5% of an updated global wetland area of 15.0 × 106–16.0 × 106 km2.
