| Name | Henk Pieter Sterk |
| Position | PhD Researcher (now GIS & Data Analyst at Peatland ACTION) |
| Joined the ERI | October 9, 2017 |
| Job Description | Henk Pieter assessed peatland condition by measuring greenhouse gas fluxes in peatlands and linking these to plant functional traits, combining both field-based measurements and UAV-derived images. Using spatial and temporal statistics modelling to upscale in-situ greenhouse gas fluxes to landscape-wide processes. Interested in using GIS and Remote Sensing techniques to help tell the story about the importance of peatland conditions in the Flow Country. Eager to help and involved with GIS or statistics education whenever possible. |
