The second TROPECOS field work in mangroves of Pará (Marapanim and Salinas) 6 May 2025 - 28 May 2025, involved 11 TROPECOS research scientists and students from BOREA, LPG, UFF and UFPA. We measured gas fluxes in mangrove soils and waters, dissolved carbon concentrations and water current in tidal creeks, and high resolution dissolved redox species in sediments using 2D gels.
Five TROPECOS researchers from IGE and CARE/HCMUT have joined the Antea, a scientific vessel from the French ocean fleet which sailed for 1 month along the Vietnamese South coast (10 June – 10 July 2024). During the field trip in wet season, intensive sampling of water for dissolved and particulate carbone as well as CO2 and CH4 concentrations was realised within the Saigon Dong Nai estuary, in two branches of Mékong Delta and along the coast.
