The project will explore the underpinning peat chemical properties impacting on decomposition and resulting blanket bog ecosystem services specifically carbon storage and water quality. The project will make use of an existing Defra project set up in addition to a mesocosm study. Chemical composition of peat from a spectrum of degraded to restored sites and from burnt, mown and uncut control areas will be identified. Decomposition and pore water quality in situ and in mesocosms from various climate scenarios will be measured. Vegetation and priming effects on decomposition and water quality will be investigated. The overall project aim is to identify key chemical plant-soil related process regulating peatland carbon cycling in order to produce sound advice on best practice management.

该项目将探索泥炭化学特性对分解的影响，以及由此产生的毯状沼泽生态系统服务，特别是碳储存和水质。该项目将利用环境、林业和农村事务部现有的一个项目，以及一项中观生态系统研究。将确定从一系列退化到恢复的地点以及从燃烧、修剪和未切割的对照区获得的泥炭的化学成分。将测量各种气候情景下的原地和中围生态系统的分解和孔隙水质量。将调查植被和引发对分解和水质的影响。整个项目的目标是确定关键的化学植物-土壤相关过程调节泥炭地碳循环，以产生良好的建议，最佳实践管理。
