One thing I learned on day 1 of #power2peatlands conference was that investigating peat by measuring sieved soil samples is like studying cows by looking at minced meat. 😀 Structure matters! Looking forward to more mindblowing insights tomorrow!

Starting off my #EGU26 with a great talk of my #WETSCAPES2.0 colleague Jürgen Kreyling about peat formation potential of #paludiculture. Looking forward to a whole week of deep-nerding about #peatlands!

We've been busy over the past weeks setting up #WETSCAPES2.0 research sites in already wet or to be rewetted #peatlands. Big thanks to our newest team members, the two "greenhorns" BetramM and RamMona 😉, who really pulled their weight helping us to build fence posts! @greifswaldmoor.bsky.social

Red peat mosses never get old... 😍 Had a fantastic day in the field with colleagues from practice and science, sharing experiences on #bog #restoration. Fresh air, feet amongst living #Sphagnum, a flock (!) of eagles overhead: It doesn't get any better than this! #ILoveMyJob #OptiMuM

#Moore sind schnell zerstört, aber leider nur langsam wieder zum Leben erweckt. In #OptiMuM untersuchen wir, wie es schneller gehen kann, und der @ndr.de war dabei. 👇 Darin auch @vytash.bsky.social's Tipp gegen schlechte Laune bei Regenwetter: ▶️ Moorschützer:in werden! www.ndr.de/nachrichten/...

Versuch: Können Moore schneller wiederbelebt werden? Forschenden pflanzen Torfmoose im Königsmoor an
Die Moose wachsen normalerweise sehr langsam. Forschende wollen die Renaturierung durch den Versuch beschleunigen.

What a huge scale! Last week we walked >16 km across a drained peat grassland to select study plots at our #wetscapes2.0 landscape-level experiment on peatland #rewetting. Soon sneakers won't be a suitable any more, and frogs don't have to rely on drainage ditches to thrive!

Kicking off WETSCAPES 2.0! This week marked the start of the first @dfg.de collaborative research center dedicated to researching rewetted fens. Over 50 scientists discussed the 100 screening sites, 5 core sites, and 2 landscape-level experiments. And we installed the first of our 1,000 sensors!

Winter is for finishing, recalibrating and community. Today we combined it all and cleaned up our longest running field site, which looks like a lake but is actually a #peatland, in a joined effort by Universities of Rostock and Greifswald. Wishing you all a joyful end of the year!
