Peat-MOSS (Peat Mapping and Observation with Satellite Sensors)

** 泥炭地是最安全的温室气体汇之一，** 储存了全球土壤碳的2-5%，但其退化占所有人为排放的2-5%。由于认识到储存和排放的巨大潜力，旨在减少排放和提高泥炭地碳储存的恢复项目呈指数级增长。然而，目前还没有一种准确和可扩展的方法来衡量、报告和核实泥炭地恢复项目。缺乏准确和可扩展的MRV导致碳核算的不确定性和对泥炭地存在的理解差异，这两者都阻碍了泥炭地GRR项目的部署。迫切需要进行更广泛的泥炭评价。到目前为止，泥炭地碳核算的重点主要集中在毯子和凸起的沼泽上，而最近沼泽地已被添加到泥炭地代码中[3]。在英国，这些沼泽地有着长期的人为改造和退化历史，特别是农业的深层排水，导致它们具有任何泥炭地类型中每公顷最高的温室气体（GHG）排放因子[4]。为这些地区开发MRV解决方案将提高其“知名度”，并为这些高度改造的场地的恢复提供经济基础。基于EO数据的泥炭地数字制图和监测有可能扩大规模，以满足全球对GGR项目精确MRV和制图的需求。Sylvera将通过结合他们在ML，EO数据和先进的现场数据收集方面的专业知识，以及UKCEH -泥炭地GGR演示领导者的研究，克服泥炭地MRV的局限性。Sylvera将领导下一代数字泥炭地测量，提供可扩展的MRV解决方案，这是GGR项目迫切需要的完整性和信心。Peat-MOSS通过将遥感和UKCEH GGR站点的数据与Sylvera行业领先的ML和全球可信评级产品 ** 相结合，推进泥炭地MRV。Sylvera将利用Peat-MOSS的技术开发，为泥炭地GGR项目创建MRV解决方案，类似于我们现有的森林GGR项目评级产品。该MRV解决方案将通过提供对泥炭地的一致性和可扩展性监控，确保GGR项目的有效性、安全性和持久性。**Peat-MOSS通过超越当前的行业标准，促进泥炭地GGR项目的诚信和信心。这将为碳市场带来信誉，并促进英国高质量泥炭地GGR项目的开发和采用。

**Peatlands are among the most secure sinks for greenhouse gases,** storing 25% of global soil carbon, yet their degradation is responsible for 2-5% of all anthropogenic emissions\[1\]. Understanding the large potential for both storage and emissions, there has been an exponential increase in restoration projects aimed at reducing emissions and enhancing carbon storage in peatlands. However, there is currently no accurate and scalable method for measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) of peatland restoration projects.**The lack of accurate and scalable MRV leads to uncertainties in carbon accounting and disparities in understanding peatland presence, both of which hinder deployment of peatland GRR projects.****There is a strong need for broader peat evaluation.** To date, much of the focus on peatland carbon accounting has been on blanket and raised bogs, while more recently fenlands have been added to the Peatland Code\[3\]. In the UK these fenland sites have a long history of anthropogenic modification and degradation, especially deep drainage for agriculture leading to them having the highest green-house gas (GHG) emission factors per ha of any peatland type\[4\]. Developing an MRV solution for these areas would enhance their "visibility" and provide an economic basis for restoration of these highly modified sites.**Digital mapping and monitoring of peatlands based on EO data has the potential to scale to meet the global need for accurate MRV and mapping of GGR projects.** Sylvera will conquer the limitations of peatland MRV by combining their expertise in ML, EO data and advanced field data collection, with the research of the UKCEH - leaders in peatland GGR demonstration. Sylvera will lead the next-generation of digital peatland measurements to provide the scalable MRV solution that is desperately needed to bring integrity and confidence to GGR projects.**Peat-MOSS advances peatland MRV by combining remote sensing and data from UKCEH's GGR sites within Sylvera's industry-leading ML and globally trusted ratings product**. Sylvera will leverage the technical development in Peat-MOSS to create an MRV solution for peatland GGR projects akin to our existing ratings product for forest GGR projects. This MRV solution will ensure the effectiveness, security, and permanence of GGR projects by providing consistent and scalable monitoring of peatlands. **Peat-MOSS fosters integrity and confidence in peatland GGR projects by moving beyond the current industry standard. This will bring credibility to the carbon market and promote the development and uptake of high-quality peatland GGR projects in the UK.**
