Submerged ancient peat forests off Mozambique's coast have transformed into vibrant marine ecosystems, offering vital habitats for diverse marine life. As rising sea levels allowed these forests to sink, they have now integrated with coral reefs, enhancing local biodiversity. The carbon-rich legacy of these underwater realms also holds significant implications for climate strategies, highlighting the necessity of including peat reefs in conservation initiatives.
