| dc.description | The blanket bogs of the United Kingdom’s Peak District and South Pennines show evidence of long– term decline caused by a range of natural and human–induced factors. The most significant feature of this decline is the large area of bare and eroding peat and associated damaged vegetation. This degradation has reduced the area’s capacity for delivering ecosystems services including: clean drinking water released slowly over a long period following rainfall; storage of carbon from old vegetation in the form of peat; habitat for raising animals (sheep and grouse); and extensive areas for recreation. | |
