Balancing carbon cycles: fisheries, aquaculture, and ocean governance
Not all carbon stored in marine life counts as atmospheric carbon dioxide removal. A critical narrative review reassesses the concept of carbon sink fisheries, developed in Chinese research, through an ecological-economic-social lens. Calcification, respiration, and postharvest fate constrain what qualifies as durable removal. The authors propose a practical governance sequence: define the intervention, evaluate evidence, and report removal separately from avoided emissions. System dynamics remains a promising tool for testing trade-offs.

Modeling China’s Coastal Growth: Integrating Economy, Innovation, and Ecology
Zhejiang's marine economy will not grow on scale alone. This study models it as a complex adaptive system, where innovation, port capacity, and ecological protection interact with delayed feedback. Notably, weaker innovation masks itself initially, but by 2030 it trims emerging-industry value added by 16.7%. Port shocks transmit directly to environmental investment, and ecological constraints shift from growth-supportive to limiting. Strong internal innovation buffers external shocks, adding RMB 35 billion to 2030 GOP. This is the integrated, systems-level thinking ocean management needs.
Advancing Earth System Science: A Call for Collaborative Research.
Understanding drives protection, and this call for collaborative research on Earth system science reflects that principle. This persistence, moving from theoretical frameworks to computational models, shows a dedication we share. They've sought dialogue elsewhere with limited success, which is why this invitation matters. For those exploring similar questions, our related article, "Calibrated ocean intelligence, now within reach through integrated data discovery," offers a practical entry point. Earth system science thrives on shared inquiry, not isolated effort. We're glad to see this conversation starting.
