Afforested Deep Peat
Areas in Wales where deep peat sites have been restored to forest. This dataset comprises the total afforested deep peat, including modified deep peat, in Wales and is categorised as Broadleaved or predominantly broadleaved, Conifer or Predominantly Conifer and Transition. The datasets gives information on soil type along with the species (broadleaved and conifer) replanted or whether the transformation of the site is still in transition. Peatland in pristine or good condition provides a range of critical ecosystem services, including biodiversity, carbon storage and sequestration, regulation of stream base flows, water runoff and downstream flood peaks and nutrient regulation and retention. Peatlands are also sinks and sources of several natural greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). More than 75% of deep peat soils in Wales are covered in semi-natural vegetation. Most of this is upland blanket bog, with significant amounts of fen and flush and, locally, lowland raised bog. These are all UK Biodiversity Action Plan priority habitats with UK and Welsh targets for habitat management and restoration. In order to deliver the habitat restoration targets set out in the Welsh Environmental Strategy, there is a need to progressively restore semi-natural habitat in afforested areas. Restoration measures should seek to better integrate the key objectives of nature conservation, soil carbon protection, carbon sequestration and water quality.

This dataset was created by intersecting deep and modified peat from the Wales Total Peatland layer with Interpreted Forest Types from the National Forest Inventory. This gives a dataset of all afforested deep peat and modified deep peat in Wales and can be visualised by Broadleaved or predominantly broadleaved, Conifer or predominantly conifer and Transition (mostly felled, ground under preparation or young trees).
