Projects
The project aims to enhance the conditions of forest and mire habitats of EU importance by implementing advanced measures of closer-to-nature forestry.
The project covers four natural areas: the Šimoniu Forest, the Bukta Forest, the Pravirsulio Tyrelis Bog and long time ago abandoned peat cutting area in Dabravole Peatland.
Promoting peatland restoration by influencing legislation,
raising public awareness and involvement to reduce the country's GHG emissions
Restoring the hydrological regime in drained mires and other peatlands, their sustainable use and the development of paludiculture is one of the opportunities to effectively reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculturally and industrially used peatlands, thus contributing to meeting the country's climate and environmental commitments.
Restoration of cut-over peatlands by by applying paludiculture and other restoration approaches
In Lithuania, peat quarries occupy 20 000 ha, more than half of which are abandoned. Unfortunately restoration of cut over peatlands in Lithuania is still very slow.
Based on our own and international experience of scientists and practitioners working in the field of wetland restoration, we offer not only the traditional method of reclamation of exploited peatlands...
