Cold-water coral mounds are effective carbon sinks in the western Mediterranean Sea
<p>Cold-water corals (CWCs) build biogenic structures, known as CWC mounds, that can store large amounts of carbon(ate). However, there is a lack of quantification studies on both recent as well as geological timescales, and knowledge is limited to the accumulation of carbonate (i.e. the inorg...
