摘要 As the integration point of urban blue-green spaces, wetland parks play an important role in the construction of urban carbon pools. It is of great significance for achieving carbon neutrality and peak carbon emissions by reasonably evaluating the carbon sequestration capacity of wetland parks and optimizing wetland structure. In this paper, Guangzhou wetland park is taken as the research object. Through field research, the carbon sequestration potential of ecosystems at multiple levels, including forest vegetation, seedlings, and wetland ecosystems is studied, and policy recommendations are put forward for carbon sequestration in wetland systems. The results show that the annual carbon sequestration capacity of the wetland is 1 296.59 t, and the annual net carbon sequestration value is 100 485 yuan. Among the three regions, proportions of annual carbon sequestration of the forest vegetation plate, seedling plate, and wetland ecosystem plate account for 28.4%, 41.3%, and 30.3%, respectively.
