4.  Blue carbon: Generic name of carbon (inorganic, organic and living organisms) existing in the sea  The amount of carbon deposited in small, shallow sea areas (accounting for only 1% of the entire sea areas) accounts for more than 50% of the total amount accumulated all over the sea. Blue carbon report issued by the United Nations Environment Programme (October 2009) Unit: Tg C/year Background of the study: What is “blue carbon”? Land area River Coastal areaOuter sea Thirty Eight APEC Transportation Working Group Meeting, Bali, Indonesia 1 – 5 July 2013

5. Carbon flow patterns in various sea areas (based on the past data) RiverShallow sea areaContinental shelf Open ocean CO 2 discharged No data CO 2 discharged CO 2 absorbed CO 2 absorbed Determined by CO 2 concentration gradient, solubility, wave and flow Inner bay and coast Carbon Depth < 200m Depth > 200m Carbon Flow, photonic synthesis, respiration and decomposition Discharge of kicked up pore water Carbon Deposited and accumulated carbon The shallower the sea area is, the more the amount of carbon is deposited. The scope of worldwide discussions concerning blue carbon: Unclear points: ・ Undiscovered sea areas ・ The “movement between the atmosphere and sea water.” Is CO 2 in the atmosphere absorbed? Background of the study: What is “blue carbon”? Thirty Eight APEC Transportation Working Group Meeting, Bali, Indonesia 1 – 5 July 2013
