We shouldn't say peatlands act as sponges...but they can slow flow and dampen droughts. Our new paper led by Kirsten Lees onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1... @peatofmind.bsky.social @peatymike.bsky.social @em-shuttleworth.bsky.social @andybairdj.bsky.social @researchleeds.bsky.social

So great to see this research finally published. Huge congrats to @abbeymarcotte.bsky.social for taking all of the different groups' data and bringing it together into a coherent narrative - no small task and you've produced an excellent paper!
Excited to share our new paper in Environmental Research: Water! We studied how wildfires and drought mobilise legacy metal contaminants from peatlands, focusing on the 2018 Stalybridge Moor fire in the UK. Read it here: iopscience.iop.org/journal/3033...

Thought provoking new paper out about the future of British #peatlands under climate change. @jpritson.bsky.social has written an excellent complementary piece for the @theconversation.com too theconversation.com/most-of-brit... #PeatlandsMatter
Most of Britain’s peat bogs could stop forming new peat as the climate changes – new study
But bad news for peatlands could trigger the funding needed to preserve them.

New paper on bioclimatic envelope modelling of peat in @jappliedecology.bsky.social besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... 1. New projections and tweaks to methods give us higher confidence than previous attempts.
