The Byalistok University of Technology is inviting you to a 90 min free webinar on the work on peatlands data they have been conducting!

In this 90-minute webinar, the project team will present the latest findings on the distribution of peatlands across European Union countries, compiled and harmonized using national data and the European Soil Database (ESDB). Utilizing data from the EU Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS), they will analyze the agricultural use of peatlands in Poland and assess the climate impact of agriculture and forestry on organic soils.
