This project aims to investigate the climate and health benefits of restoring the tropical peat swamp forests. The project will integrate novel, field-based paleo-reconstruction of the historical conditions, satellite observations of temperature and rainfall, and high-resolution modelling of the regional climate processes under different restoration scenarios. It will use this information to determine how restoration activities affect the regional climate, how changes in climate affect peatland fires and regional smoke haze, and how changes to regional climate and smoke haze affect human respiratory health and heat stress.

该项目旨在调查恢复热带泥炭沼泽森林的气候和健康效益。该项目将整合新的、基于实地的历史条件古重建、温度和降雨卫星观测以及不同恢复情景下区域气候过程的高分辨率建模。它将利用这些信息来确定恢复活动如何影响区域气候，气候变化如何影响泥炭地火灾和区域烟雾，以及区域气候和烟雾的变化如何影响人类呼吸健康和热应激。
