Survey of peat depth/soil types and recommended restoration measures for deep peat areas on 3 separate areas of Levisham Estate totalling 66 ha. Site survey and evaluation. Measure peat depths and mineral soils across the study areas. Describe ecological condition of peat and vegetation (inc. NVC and frequency of certain species).
