Mariculture of shellfish and algae has double benefits of obtaining food with a low-carbon footprint and sequestrating carbon during the natural process. This work estimated the co-benefits of low carbon food supply and carbon sequestration via shellfish and algae farming in China. Spatiotemporal evolution, driving factors, and decoupling status of shellfish and algae farming from 2003 to 2020 were comprehensively analyzed.
