@peatymike.bsky.socialVery excited to share this paper from @peatymike.bsky.social & I, where we explore the question of whether CH4 uptake by aquatic ecosystems (inland) is fact or fiction? It's been a super fun collaboration, buoyed by the generous opinions of the limnological community that completed the survey.
Show PostCool paper about freshwater methane uptake! The survey was such a great idea! I will definitely be keeping a closer eye on my negative CH4 flux values… 👀
Show PostThe digger is back! The work on our sites this season will mostly involve blocking old drainage ditches, rather than reprofiling hags. Blocking these ditches will help to slow the flow of water off the hills and keep the #peat wet 💦
Show PostThis is not pejorative, I've worked on NGO estates, on private estates, the realities are much the same, income and costs have the same relationship the same path to failure. I've seen better social attitudes from private owners than NGOs but they are exceptions not the norm.
