The largest, most continuous area of this habitat is found from Abu Dhabi city mainland, to Mirfa, however, other large expanses of this habitat type can also be found in the far Western Region, near the border with Saudi Arabia. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Description: Coastal sabkha is salt-encrusted desert close to the coast covering wide expanses. It is devoid of vegetation due to the high salinity of the substrate. Halophytes, however, may occur where there is a thin carpeting of sand on the surface. Abu Dhabi’s coastal sabkha are some of the best documented in the world, with the sabkha south of Al Dabbi’ya and Abu Al Abyadh Islands, the only complete sabkha in the world that represents the four main distinctive layers of sabkha, together in one site. While not a traditional Blue Carbon ecosystem, historic soil carbon stocks in Coastal sabkha are likely to have a Blue Carbon origin. When these ecosystems are destroyed, buried carbon can be released into the atmosphere, which subsequently contributes to global warming. || السبخة الساحلية هي صحراء مغطاة بطبقة من الملح تقع بالقرب من الساحل وتغطي مساحات واسعة. وهي خالية من الغطاء النباتي بسبب ارتفاع ملوحة الركيزة. ومع ذلك، قد تنمو النباتات المتحملة للملوحة في المناطق التي توجد فيها طبقة رقيقة من الرمال على السطح.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN /></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>تعتبر السبخة الساحلية في أبوظبي من بين الأكثر توثيقًا في العالم، حيث تعتبر السبخة الواقعة جنوب منطقة الضبعية وجزر أبو الأبيض السبخة الوحيدة في العالم التي تمثل الطبقات الأربع الرئيسية المميزة للسبخة، مجتمعة في موقع واحد.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN /></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>على الرغم من أنها ليست نظامًا بيئيًا تقليديًا للكربون الأزرق، فمن المرجح أن تكون مخزونات الكربون التاريخية في تربة السبخة الساحلية ذات أصل كربون أزرق. وعندما يتم تدمير هذه النظم البيئية، يمكن إطلاق الكربون المدفون إلى الغلاف الجوي، مما يساهم بعد ذلك في الاحترار العالمي</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 667 0;"><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
