Exciting discussions at the Technical workshop to develop an ASEAN tool kit for tropical #peatland GHG and C stocks monitoring here in Malaysia. This is part of the @FCDOGovUK funded #Encore project. Great seeing so many regional stockholders bringing ideas . @LJMU_BES @LJMU

Exciting New paper out considering shifts in tropical #peat microbial communities and functional groups post- fires and implications to nutrient availability. Delighted to see this paper untangle some of the functional processes. @DrTELS @LJMU_BES sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Wetlands *are* infrastructure & usually much cheaper & more effective than the concrete grey infrastructure that so-called Yimbys are always asking for. LFG have a good double act here: lobby the government to give developers permission to build on wetlands, and then lobby the government for that sweet sweet taxpayers cash to build ‘infrastructure’ to do the work the wetlands used to do (providing clean water, stopping flooding, sequestering carbon etc) for free!
They promised to back the builders not the blockers. But instead they're paving the way for even more fish discos. Even more bat tunnels. Even less new infrastructure. THIS is why our movement is essential, why over 1,200 people will be at the O2 tonight shouting for change.

Excited to be off to Malaysia and Philippines for the EnCore project with @GECtalks. For carbon stocks and ghg assessments in some established and some previously unstudied tropical #peat sites with @DrTELS and @peatblogger.

All set and on my way to Vienna for #EGU2025. @Inter_PEAT presenting on wetter #peat farming emissions twice, tropical peat agriculture drain emissions, 14c dating of emissions during restoration of peat. Super excited. See you all there! @longdenmik @peatblogger @MariaNolanEco

PDRA1 will join my carbon biogeochemistry group, and lead efforts to establish the current and future physical capacity of land in the case study regions to contribute to net zero, and prioritise areas for peatland restoration. Full details here - jobs.ac.uk/job/DKM406/interd… 2/2

Delighted to be successful in getting @LJMU VC scholarship funding for a new PhD to start in Feb on soil/plant dynamics within #paludiculture and #wetterfarming trials here in the NW lowland #peatlands. Here's to some exciting results and @LJMUImpact. @DrRJWebster @Lancswildlife

Super proud of Marshall with his award winning research considering the functional impact of peat compaction in oil palm plantations.. facebook.com/share/p/PzfnTdQ…
