Soil carbon stock densities in mangrove and forested wetland ecosystems of Panama.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mangrove and forested wetland ecosystems represent critical carbon reservoirs, yet uncertainties in belowground carbon stock estimates hinder their inclusion in climate mitigation strategies. Here we present soil carbon stock density data for mangrove and forested wetland ecosystems across Panama's Pacific and Caribbean regions. We established 45 permanent plots across marine and riparian mangrove typologies and 14 permanent plots in forested wetlands, collecting 544 soil cores to quantify soil carbon stocks. Soil samples were analyzed for bulk density, organic matter content, and organic carbon concentration, enabling calculation of carbon stock density at 0.3 m and 0.5 m depth profiles. Soil carbon stock density estimates differed among marine mangroves, riparian mangroves, and forested wetlands, reflecting ecosystem heterogeneity including mineral versus peat soils. These data provide essential ground-truth measurements contributing to Panama's national carbon accounting and climate commitments for the Land Use, Land-Use Change, and Forestry sector. The standardized methodology facilitates integration with regional carbon monitoring efforts across Central America and the Caribbean, supporting blue carbon database development and carbon mapping validation initiatives.
