Competence field:Ecology, Sustainable forest management, Sustainable ecosystem management
Cooperation:Strategic cooperation
Funding partner:State funding
The aim of the project is to ecologically characterise forest and forestry types on peatlands and link these characteristics with emissions and water balance data. The findings will ultimately be used to draw conclusions for good forestry practice and to communicate examples of best practice.
