Nutrient thresholds govern carbon dioxide sink–source dynamics in seagrass ecosystems

Nutrient pollution is accelerating in coastal waters, yet its effects on carbon dioxide (CO2) sink–source dynamics remain poorly constrained. Seagrass ecosystems are globally important blue carbon sinks but can shift to net CO2 sources under excessive nutrient loading. Here, we present one of the first empirical assess...
