The Development of Blue Carbon as a Nature-Based Solution (NBS)

Following a rigorous  process, the Selection Committee has granted Dr. Ana Queiros, of the Plymouth Marine Laboratory, the AXA IM Research Award for her research on the development of blue carbon as a Nature-Based Solution (NBS).  

Dr. Queiros will be granted €100,000 in recognition of the impact of her work which focusses on ocean management strategies that enhance ecosystems’ abilities to adapt to climate change (“climate-smart” management) and to act as carbon sinks (blue carbon). Recognising the need for society to play a role, her research seeks to generate recommendations for ocean management strategies that protect nature whilst being socially and economically viable.
