Peatland restoration greenhouse emissions and uncertainties under multiple emission metrics from a modelling case-study in the UK

National Inventory Report approaches were used to generate emission estimates and uncertainties. Emissions were then converted to different forms of 'carbon dioxide equivalence' using standard reporting metrics.
The dataset reports model runs from a Monte Carlo Simulation and resultant means, standard errors and upper and lower 95% confidence intervals for modelled greenhouse gas emissions associated with peatlands before and after restoration, from case-study areas reported by The Wildlife Trusts. The Monte Carlo Simulation used randomly selected individual emission factors within their uncertainty ranges for the original, current and target peatland conditions provided by The Wildlife Trusts. Original peatland area data that was used for this remains owned by individual Wildlife Trusts and is not included. Emission factors and their uncertainty ranges were from Evans et al (2023) report titled "Aligning the Peatland Code with the UK Peatland Inventory" (see below).
