Wahaj Habib is a Postgraduate (PhD) Student at the Trinity College Dublin, and he illustrated the results of his study on peatlands monitoring in Ireland. Peatlands have been under severe pressure globally due to anthropogenic activities, ans in Ireland, approximately 90 % of the peatlands have been degraded to some extent due to these activities. Peatlands play also an important role to achieve temperature goals agreed in the Paris agreement and in fulfilling the EU’s commitment to quantifying the Carbon/Green House Gases (C/GHG) emissions from land use, land-use change forestry. Therefore, accurate mapping and identification of management related activities (land use) on peatlands has become a research and management priority.
