This will deliver scientifically robust data to improve our understanding of Falkland peatland GHG emissions and reporting into the GHG Inventory. It will also establish accurate carbon sequestration rates for the peatlands, enabling a feasibility study for a carbon offsetting scheme with the long-term aim of financing peatland restoration.

Recovering populations of southern right whales and endangered sei whales occur around the Falklands.Informed management decisions are hindered by lack of knowledge of their local and region-wide occurrence.This project uses telemetry to track individual whales, and boat/aerial surveys to address data gaps ondistribution, abundance and ecology. Management outputs include a draft Species Action Plan, KeyBiodiversity Area assessment, and recognition of Falklands whale populations by regional regulators.Community and stakeholder engagement will optimise support of management recommendations.

This project will identify the first globally-recognised marine Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) for seabirds (assessing 33 species) in the Falklands to inform the current MMA process and future MSP, and engage decision-makers on the application of these IUCN-endorsed tools for practicable management decisions. Working with stakeholders to develop an understanding and value of the KBA concept, the project aims to inspire implementation of leading practice in marine management of the Falklands globally significant sites for biodiversity.

Covering over a quarter of the Falklands land-area, peat-wetland is highly significant for carbon storage, ecosystem function, and the important habitats, fauna and flora it supports. Habitat and soil loss, are ongoing threats to our peat-wetland ecosystems, exacerbated by a lack of knowledge which prevents site-based protection and management for conservation. Descriptions of nationally 'Vulnerable' peat-wetland ecosystems, development of assessment tools for land-managers, and multimedia outputs will inspire and drive protection and management of valuable sites for lasting conservation benefit.

Anecdotal increases in endangered sei and fin whales have been reported in Falklands' coastal waters. Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are internationally-important sites for global biodiversity. Candidate KBAs (cKBAs) have been identified for baleen whale species in nearshore waters around the Islands and overlap with areas of increasing human marine activity. This project aims to evaluate two cKBA sites for whales, improve the information available to decision-makers, and engage stakeholders regarding conservation and management considerations for these and other KBAs.
