description

Natural England has a requirement for understanding the impact on ecosystem services of the management of vegetation on heathland and ombrotrophic (blanket bog and raised mire) peatland by cutting. The first objective is a review of literature. If this review demonstrates that there is enough information available, a rapid review of evidence is required based upon the following questions: a.What is the effect of cutting upon composition and structure of vegetation on heathland and ombrotrophic peatland?
b.What is the effect of upon the hydrological function and water quality of ombrotrophic peatland and heathland, of cutting vegetation?
c.What is the effect of cutting of vegetation on ombrotrophic peatland and heathland upon carbon budgets of these habitats?
d.What is the effect of cutting of vegetation on ombrotrophic peatland and heathland upon the associated fauna of these habitats?
