Abstract
This study assessed the sustainable development of global blue carbon (carbon stored in coastal ecosystems) over 24 years using a newly developed Blue Carbon Development Index (BCDI). The BCDI integrates driving forces, resource endowment, and development capacity. Results show an upward trend in BCDI scores, with regional variations. A global cooperation model was proposed to explore potential carbon sequestration increases and economic benefits, indicating significant gains under a deep cooperation scenario.
