"Article Evaluation"

Evaluating "Blue Carbon"

Each sub category within the article is relevant to the overall topic. There were not any topics that distracted me, however I believe the author should consider re-ordering their topics as 'seagrass stoichiometry' disrupts the flow of their article. The author did not include a value for the amount of carbon fixed in wetland habitats as it is difficult to estimate. Several research papers estimate the value for blue carbon and the indicators they use for estimation which could have been applied to this paper. The author focused specifically on sedimentation as a source for degradation for blue carbon stores with little to no focus on other causes of degradation.

Because sedimentation is heavily prioritized as a method for degradation, the author favors this source of degradation over others. A more complete explanation or altering the topic title would better represent this authors work. The author cites research papers directly and tested links work. These sources are primary sources and are unbiased.

The talk section gives advise to the authors to make their writing more objective, check citations, and provide clarification for certain areas of their article. This article gives an explanation for 'blue carbon' or natural carbon sinks. This author takes a similar approach to carbon as we have discussed in class but with greater focus on the biology and environmental factors leading to natural carbon sinks.

"Articles Selection"

Carbon capture and storage

This article is missing information on carbon ocean storage and current information is limited to select information from conferences on ocean storage. All of the conferences referenced are from 1992 or before so they are very outdated. Although ocean storage may warrant its own article, its included within carbon storage and depending on the amount of information we collect, we could include our discussion of ocean storage within the carbon storage page or start a new one. Here are a few potential sources we could use and references we can further explore for ocean carbon storage.
