The PeatPic Project: Predicting plot-scale green leaf #phenology across #peatlands
So happy to see this paper online — one of my favourite projects!
We explored how to capture how peatlands change colour using smartphones and community science!

Line Rochefort delivered two inspiring talks on peatland #restoration — from private sector roles to the magic of moss & biocrusts🌱
Plus, Tomotsugu Yazaki shared innovative research on straw mulch alternatives 👏

We tracked 147 restored #peatland sectors over 20 years to assess the Moss Layer Transfer Technique #MLTT.
➡️ Up to 80% success in under 10 years in the St. Lawrence Lowlands region

Past PhD student Sebastián Gutierrez Pacheco built a method to estimate daily water table levels from sparse data — using PERG data 🌿
💸 Super handy when you can’t afford fancy loggers in every well!

Great coverage of the Carbonique project led by Michelle Garneau at UQAM.
🌿 So glad peatlands are finally getting the recognition they deserve — not just as smelly, mosquito-filled swamps! 😄
💚 These ecosystems are key to carbon storage and climate action.
(And a mini shout out of the #PeatColours project)

Yet carbon emissions from peat fires aren’t counted in current government stats. 😶🌫️
🌍 #Peatlands matter for climate action.

Glad to see this topic at the top of CBC News - watching fires burn up the boreal year after year sucks, and it's the peatlands burning that I worry about most

For over 30 years, peatlands have been at the heart of our research — from understanding their ecology to restoring them.
Let’s raise awareness and fall in love with peatlands — because we protect what we love. 💚
