Report details ecological characterization of peatlands and coastal lagoons in EU

A new synthesis report, titled "Ecological Characterisation of Peatlands and Coastal Lagoons in Europe," has been published to support the assessment, monitoring and restoration of European wetlands under EU environmental legislation. The report was prepared in response to a policy request submitted by the Directorate-General for Environment (DG ENV) to the European Commission's Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity (KCBD) and delivered by the Science Service for Biodiversity (SSBD), which is currently under development by the BioAgora project.
