Peatlands store a lot of carbon on Earth, mostly since the last Ice Age. We know they are important for the carbon cycle, but we still don't fully understand how they will respond to climate change. We also need more data on how peatlands grow sideways and how much carbon they had in the past. The C-PEAT project aims to figure this out.
