Abstract:Seagrass meadows are an important component of coastal ecosystems globally, and they capture and store organic carbon in living biomass and sediments.

Seagrass extent in Indonesia is declining rapidly, and it has been suggested that marine protected areas (MPAs) are an important instrument to support protection of seagrass ecosystems and their services.
