Show(case), not just tell...

By Annemarie Gibson, Film Producer, Circamedia

SEFARI think a lot about how to get their research out to the right people and in the right form. As filmmakers so do we. Obviously we think film is the strongest form of communication and has the potential to really grab the public’s interest - showing is always much better than just telling.

On the Deep Wealth of this Nation

SEFARI is delighted to be supporting the launch of the Center for the Study of the Force Majeure’s Vision for Scotland and the Dee valley in the form of a guiding narrative film exploring the implications of climate change and provoking thought and action for how we might adapt to the challenges as a diverse group of communities of interest.

Assessing the impact of tree diseases on the wider environment

Recently there has been a rapid increase in the spread and number of non-native tree pests and pathogens around the world. Traditionally the impact of tree diseases and pests has been assessed in terms of their impact on forestry and the loss of wood products. However trees, like ash or oak, support a number of other species and their decline may pose significant risks for other species reliant on them.

WISE Peatland Choices A decision support tool for peatland restoration in Scotland

An important considera on, given the high targets for emissions reduction and habitat restoration, is to consider where peatland conservation on and restoration on may be most desirable. To aid this process, a decision support tool has been developed that summarises all of the information on that is available at the national scale on peatland locations and various condition indicators.

Dr Rebekka Artz

My specific interests relate to the ecology and ecosystem functions of microbiota in peatland ecosystems. My research has widened its scope to include peatland restoration as well as studying the effects of climate change and increased nitrogen deposition on carbon cycling in peatlands and other organic soils, such as upland heathlands.
