Our PhD student Edward Salakpi graduated y'day from @SussexUni 🎓 His research used SEO data to analyse vegetation/drought in African pastoral communities. He is now a #RemoteSensing scientist on the @forth_era programme at @StirUni. Well done Dr Salakpi, you've worked so hard!

We saw this graphic at a meeting hosted by @forth_era in Stirling yesterday and thought it was quite powerful - even rainy Scotland is predicted to have medium/high water stress in the coming years. Monitoring the water quality will be crucial.

Peatlands are essential for #carbon storage, but are under threat. Restored peatlands retain water and trap carbon. @JASubke explains how #ForthERA will support enhanced carbon management in peatland environments. #COP26
