Did you hear about the new flux tower at Arne Moors on @BBCDorset breakfast news?

This joint effort by us @UK_CEH and @RSPBEngland will answer the mystery of how newly created saltmarshes store carbon.

👀 Watch a preview of the open consultation on the #SaltmarshCode, which will officially start next Monday 21 October.

Here @annette_burden provides the background to the Saltmarsh Code and the consultation 🧵1/

[Blue Marine Foundation @Bluemarinef]

🚨Years of over-exploitation and pollution have left UK coastal habitats degraded and fragmented, reducing their ability to support wildlife and healthy, resilient seas.

Blue Marine and partners have published a new report showcasing the ecosystem services our precious marine habitats provide and how the UK Government can protect and restore them to bring nature back to our coastal areas.

Read the report 👇 https://t.co/XKc6ORMxzR

[UKCEH @UK_CEH]

More than 130 saltmarsh experts gathered for the UK Saltmarsh Forum in Dumfries this week to identify key areas for future research to increase knowledge of valuable saltmarsh habitats

Only 450 sq km of the UK's natural #saltmarsh remains, with England losing ~85% in 150 years. But these vital habitats support wildlife & combat climate change.

Spotlight on #saltmarsh 💙

See our latest news about a UKCEH-led study into the viability of a saltmarsh carbon credit scheme, which would enable companies to invest in restoring degraded UK saltmarshes & offset their greenhouse gas emissions

🔎 We're going deep into #saltmarsh this week!

Today, read more about saltmarsh science and our work on the @wwf_uk Saltmarsh Research Platform, including an interview in WWF Action with UKCEH wetland biogeochemist Annette Burden

[UKCEH @UK_CEH]

UKCEH is installing the first network of greenhouse gas monitoring stations on saltmarshes around the UK coast, with 2 now in place on the Ribble Estuary.

It will provide data on how much GHG could be removed from the atmosphere by UK saltmarshes.

[UKCEH @UK_CEH]

The UKCEH Countryside Survey has collected data for more than 40 years to show how our water, land and air, and the animals and plants that depend on them, are changing over time.

Data from nature, for nature 💚
