Annette Burden

I am a wetland scientist at CEH’s Bangor research site specialising in biogeochemical and ecological functioning of peat bog and salt marsh ecosystems.

I lead research into carbon sequestration and nutrient cycling in restored and natural salt marshes and peatlands, delivering research to increase understanding and explore the effects of different land management practices and land use change on ecosystem functioning. I am also responsible for managing projects; developing quality assured data management tools; and analysing and interpreting data for peer-review publication and contract reporting.

I also managed the field survey for the Welsh Government funded Glastir Monitoring and Evaluation Programme (GMEP) that aims to assess their sustainable land management scheme, Glastir.
