On the Migneint today with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social and @peatblogger.bsky.social. GHG and water sampling to investigate the effects of blanket bog rewetting/restoration in our @water4all-eu.bsky.social funded project.

Great few days sampling a couple of peatlands near Stirling for aquatic GHG’s. Managed to evade the Midges and spot an Adder! @livunigeog.bsky.social @livunisoes.bsky.social

On Chat Moss for GHG flux measurements with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social & @peatblogger.bsky.social. Fierce horseflies on the prowl as ever.

Another warm day for GHG work and water sampling on the Migneint blanket bog - measuring the effects of rewetting/restoration with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social & @peatblogger.bsky.social. On the drive back saw my book in the wild for the first time at Rhug Farm.

A scorching day for some greenhouse gas fieldwork on the Migneint blanket bog in North Wales, with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social, @peatblogger.bsky.social, and others.

A rather warm but fabulous blanket bog in Eryri national park today. Sampled for dissolved GHG’s and 24hr aquatic fluxes ☀️ @livunigeog.bsky.social

Out on Chat Moss for some peat coring and greenhouse gas measurements with @rchiverrell.bsky.social, @laurabaugh94.bsky.social and @peatblogger.bsky.social. Lots of angry thistles and even angrier horseflies...

A rather wet, windy and cold day on the Migneint with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social and @peatblogger.bsky.social for some GHG sampling. Also got the pleasure of giving @ect-uk.bsky.social a tour of the site.

Back home after a fantastic #EGU26. Final day was a highlight for @livunisoes.bsky.social and all things GHGs: after my presentation on mountain lakes we had some excellent talks and posters by @laurabaugh94.bsky.social, @peatblogger.bsky.social and Junyue Zhou

A cold day on a rewetted Welsh blanket bog with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social and @peatblogger.bsky.social, but great to get our GHG sampling underway for our @water4all-eu.bsky.social project ECO-WADE.

Lovely Friday news; our EPSRC Impact Accelerator Account proposal has been successfully funded. Titled "Ditching Methane to Engineer Net Zero" (yes, it's about ditches), and with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social and @peatblogger.bsky.social also on board. Looking forward to more ditch GHG work in 2026.

Migneint blanket bog with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social today, installing collars for our @water4all-eu.bsky.social project ECOWADE, + doing some pool GHG measurements for Laura's PhD. Also enjoyed visiting a new restoration site where work has just started to reprofile an eroded area of peat hags.

The 3 week Swedish adventure has come to an end. In total 20 sites have been sampled for GHG emissions including radiocarbon analysis. Sites ranged from Uppsala all the way down to Kalmar, Southern Sweden @livunigeog.bsky.social

Visited three sites today near Skövde, Sweden for aquatic GHG emissions. We even made a helpful new field assistant 🐱 @livunigeog.bsky.social

Whew, a big field day in Uppland today with @laurabaugh94.bsky.social and @tksilver.bsky.social. We drove 300km and visited 7 rewetted/restored peatlands along the way. We made it to the wild and rocky NE coast of the county, before returning to Uppsala via a small but lovely alkaline fen.

Incredible images from @fdraper.bsky.social's drone flying. Here's a lovely view of Sphagnum recolonising the recently rewetted "Mini Moss" raised bog site.

The second recipient for the April round of #PeatNeeds is Laura Baugh (laurabaugh94.bsky.social). Laura is interested in GHG fluxes from waterbodies in rewetted peatlands, with a specific focus on methane. 1/2
Laura, wearing a black ball cap, light blue long-sleeved top, black trousers, and hiking boots, is standing on a boardwalk in a peatland and smiling at the camera. There are trees in the background. Behind Laura is a pool, and to the left are a couple of floating chambers stacked up which are used to measure greenhouse gas fluxes from peatland waterbodies.

Great morning with the drone at Risley Moss. Hoping the images captured can be used to work out the total area of water across the sites and used to upscale GHG emissions. Thanks to @fdraper.bsky.social for bringing his drone out to capture this data! @peatymike.bsky.social @livunigeog.bsky.social

At Risley Moss today watching @fdraper.bsky.social do some drone flights for @laurabaugh94.bsky.social's PhD research. Hoping the images collected will allow us to calculate how much of the bog is comprised of pools and allow us to upscale GHG emissions. @livunigeog.bsky.social

Overnight floating chambers at Risley Moss last month. 20 pools sampled for GHG’s with 30 chambers deployed.
