Abstract Crucial for coastal carbon sequestration, global seagrass organic carbon (OC) burial rates remain uncertain as early estimates were derived from mixed methodologies across geographically and taxonomically biased datasets. Here, we present a data-driven reassessment from a synthesis of 332 sediment cores spanning the last century. Results show that seagrasses bury OC at 25 ± 3 g OC m−2 yr−1 (geometric mean), with an area-weighted global average of 33 ± 9 g OC m−2 yr−1.
