Bog Blog – behind the scenes of a new film about restoring our peatlands

We first met Andrew Macdonald, ExhibitScotland, at the Royal Highland Show (RHS) in 2017. Staffing the Virtual Reality corner for RSPB in the Education tent, he first showed us his 360 film shot at Abernethy.

Climate Change - Discussing Extreme Scenarios

Climate change and the impact it will have presents significant challenges to our future. The effects will be felt across many sectors of society and will influence our personal and professional lives in some profound ways. Some of these impacts have not been identified yet and even when they have they can still be difficult to assess, both in terms of how important they will be and what knock-on effects they will have.

Citizen Science: How to Investigate Pests and Diseases Under Climate Change

We have created a state-of-the-art, and free to download, desktop app to provide climate change risk assessments for crops pests and diseases in the UK that anyone can use.

Protecting Potatoes: Unearthing Scotland’s Story

By Max Coleman, RBGE

Protecting our soil and securing the way ahead

A large proportion of the Scottish strategic road network in the Highlands is vulnerable to landslides. Landslides in Scotland have significant economic impact and they may increase in frequency with the intense rainfall events associated with a changing climate. The potential of vegetation to decrease vulnerability to landslides has been demonstrated in the laboratory, and increased vulnerability to landslides has often been noted after vegetation clearance in the field.

Dr Kirsty Blackstock

My research interests relate to understanding of environmental policy development and uptake within the more general processes rural governance. Increasingly, I am interested in how a socio-ecological systems approach can fit with existing governance. Visit my profile to find out more.

Dr Scott Newey

My research focuses on understanding the interaction between wildlife populations, and management practices and land use. My current research includes work on mountain hares, capercaillie, and upland waders. I use large scale experiments, correlational, and modelling approaches to assess how management and land use affect individual species and communities, and how wildlife can sustainably co-exist in human dominated landscapes.
