Just as a new government in Brazil appears set to revert deforestation in the Amazon, the Peruvian congress passes a new forestry zoning law that excludes the environment ministry from decisions and will ramp up biodiversity loss and carbon emissions.

PhD studentship: Peat-forming seasonally flooded forests of the Peruvian Amazon, their distribution, carbon storage, and long-term ecology St Andrews Geography & SD, @univstandrews and SUERC through NERC DTP #IAPETUS2. Drs Ian Lawson, Euridice Honorio, Katy Roucoux, Pauline Gulliver

We're going to need some bigger steps #ucuRISING

Ready to explore the unexpected? Join us to open the exhibition “For Peatlands’ Sake” on 29 January @MuseumsUniStA! 👉 The exhibit was developed with Katy Roucoux & shows research by Peatlands@StAndrews research group, & the Tropical Wetlands Consortium bit.ly/3GWeVpr

📢Excited to announce two fully funded #PhD positions at new Carbon & Wetlands Research Group (adamhastie.wordpress.com) Faculty of Science of Charles University in beautiful #Prague, working on #tropicalpeatlands! Applicants from everywhere welcome. Please share! See below 👇

Last couple days to apply for this exciting #postdoc project with me, monitoring #methane dynamics in the Peruvian Amazon! #PeatTwitter #PeatECR Deadline 14th June!

very useful paper - and those herbaria are of course also crucial for training, species discovery and supporting all sorts of on-the-ground conservation decisions as well

Great collaboration using in part our Moore Foundation #MonANPeru plot data: lowland forests in Peru, away from the drier edge of Amazonia, are some of the most resistant to El Nino and therefore even more crucial to conserve SERNANP IIAP

Good example of how you learn more when you put data from herbarium specimens and ecological plots together
