Come and work with the InSPIRE project on understanding how proglacial #peatlands lock away carbon as glaciers recede. Details below for this 24-month post-doc position.

Congratulations @lauraboyall.bsky.social for passing her PhD viva with (very) minor corrections! A unique integration of modern monitoring, palaeoclimate, Bayesian modelling, data model comparisons & sci-pol. Expertly examined by Prof Caitlin Buck & Prof Jonathan Holmes. @rhulgeography.bsky.social

Thanks to @iucn-uk-peat.bsky.social and Environment Agency for inviting me to speak at their water research seminar series - focussing on nature-based solutions of peat-forming #wetwoodlands, including some of the evidence gaps & research happening on these ecosystems @wetwoodlands.bsky.social

Visit to Chat Moss area yesterday to plan our new long-term monitoring site with @naturalengland.bsky.social looking at tree establishment and understanding more about trees and #peat in the context of restoration. The work is part of the @wetwoodlands.bsky.social network of monitoring sites.

Fantastic day of insightful discussions and ideas on #peatland #resilience at the @bes-peatlandsgroup.bsky.social workshop yesterday. Excited to collaborate on the next steps with such a great group! @iucn-uk-peat.bsky.social @britishecologicalsociety.org

Our #Peatland Resilience workshop was a success! We managed to have 70 participants across in person + on Zoom take part in all components of the workshop! Big thank you to all speakers + participants! @bes-peatlandsgroup.bsky.social @iucn-uk-peat.bsky.social

Does anyone else still have their lovely #PeatConf24 Sphagnum gift from @iucn-uk-peat.bsky.social? I ended up with three and they’re doing surprising well with little (no) input from me! #peat

Last day of fieldwork for 2024 with download of monitoring data at the Wheatfen #peatland #wetwoodland site. We even got a bit of solstice sunshine! @wetwoodlands.bsky.social

Great to hear from @scootjd.bsky.social on his PeatPic and #PeatColours projects looking at greenness across peatlands, and how to involve the community in the research #BES2024

Great to meet lots of peat and wetland folk at the @bes-peatlandsgroup.bsky.social SIG social for #BES2024. Thanks to @scootjd.bsky.social for organising us all!

We are now on Bluesky!

If you don't know us already, we are the #peatlands and #wetlands group of the @britishecolsoc.bsky.social

We cover all aspects of peatland and wetland science and policy!Give us a follow and we are looking forward to interact with you all! #Peatsky

I'm heading to Liverpool today for #BES2024 as part of the Peatland and Wetland Special Interest Group team. Come and say hi to me and @scootjd.bsky.social to get involved in @bes-peatlandsgroup.bsky.social #peatlands #wetlands
