Late post - pleased to have co-led this work, using long-term ecosystem property & biodiversity datasets to assess impacts of #fire and potential for natural recovery in tropical #peatland. Many thanks to many contributors and supporters!
Thrilled to share our new @DICE_Kent research on fire impacts - hot off the press🔥 in @PNASNews
Working with @BorneoNature & using 16-years of data, we examined the ecological impacts of fire and potential for recovery in Indonesia's tropical peatlands🧵1/10

Today as we celebrate Earth Day 🌏 we recognise the dedicated partner we have with Borneo Nature Foundation.
They undertake vital work in protecting the peat swamp forests of Central Kalimantan. This area is key habitat for Critically Endangered Bornean orangutans 🌳

Our international conservation work is more than releasing or supporting animals in the wild 👇
