... of this study is to estimate the amount of blue carbon that can be sequestered by each AR unit (in fact, the algae colonizing it). A sampling of the algae adhered to concrete structures present in the estuary of Ferrol (locality of Seaño) was carried out for such a purpose. A 50 × 50 cm square has been used with a total number of three replicas (Fig. 1). The collected samples were dried at 105 °C. They were also homogenized and ground in an agate mill. A Leco Truspec CHN autoanalyzer was used to determine the total content of carbon (inorganic and organic). The content of organic carbon has been determined, discounting the inorganic carbon of the shell of various species collected in ...
