This file is drafted in the context of the Framework service contract EEA/NSS/17/002/Lot 1 - services EEA10 -Task III: Provide a list of measures applicable for carbon storage in the context of biodiversity restoration This file contains the result of a quickscan of literature regarding information on carbon pools and carbon sequestration rates in terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Based on this information, supplemented with expert knowledge, a list has been drawn up in which the EUNIS habitat types are classified based on their total carbon stock and carbon sequestration rate. This list is available as seperate excel worksheet for marine and terrestrial ecosystems and also included as annex in the report that documents the project.
