    Rewetting trials

    This project aims to test two techniques for rewetting cracked peat bogs so that we can recommend how to do it in practice. Barriers to water movement are formed by digging trenches to deeper than the cracks and repacking them with peat with or without a plastic membrane lining one side of the trench.

    Delivery of ecosystem services by urban forests

    Lead Author: Helen Davies
    This Research Report looks at a broad range of urban forest-based ecosystem services and disservices and, using a literature review, links their provision with four aspects of urban forests (physical scale, physical structure and context in terms of location and proximity to people and land use and ownership). A key objective of this report is […]

    The implications of upland conifer management for breeding birds

    Lead Author: John Calladine
    Stand structure is an important determinant of habitat quality for forest biodiversity and is influenced by management. In conifer plantations, the varied structure created within a stand by continuous cover forestry (CCF) systems has been expected to be better for woodland birds than the range of discrete stand structures created through rotations of clearfelling and […]
