I am a first year PhD student in Human Geography doing research on the area of the Peak District in the UK. Particularly, I will use the adaptive management approach to analyse the peatlands in the northern Peak District as a socio-ecological system, exploring its ability to increase the capacity for carbon sequestratin through learning, adaptation and resilience.

Keywords: peat, Peak District, adaptive governance and management, carbon sequestration, resilience.
