🌿 New Paper Alert: Newly Forming Peatlands in Aotearoa/New Zealand! 🌿
Our study shows peat has been accumulating in a recently deglaciated valley in the Southern Alps, Aotearoa/New Zealand, since ∼1949 C.E. As glaciers retreat & climates warm, new peatlands could emerge—key for carbon storage. 1/🧵

Thrilled to share that our study on the Antarctic Peninsula's recent greening trend was chosen as NASA Earth Observatory's 'Image of the Day'! Huge thanks to the research team, and to NASA for this unexpected share! Does this mean I can finally wear a NASA t-shirt legitimately?! shorturl.at/XUv1d
Satellites Reveal a Greener Antarctic Peninsula
Scientists are beginning to unravel what comes next, after the ice moves out and vegetation moves in.
