SRDC’s researchers continue to play their key role in advancing research and capacity building through a two-day technical training programme for the SaraCarbon team under the Marudi Peat Swamp Forest Conservation & Restoration Project.

The training, titled “Principles & Practices of Water Level, Peat Subsidence & Rain Gauge Monitoring Systems”, was recently held at Wisma Samling, Miri, bringing together participants to strengthen their knowledge and skills in effective peatland monitoring.

Throughout the programme, participants built a better understanding of how water levels, peat subsidence, and rainfall are connected to peatland condition, carbon storage, and fire risk. They were also exposed to the installation of monitoring equipment, highlighted on the importance of good data practices and given guidance on basic data analysis.

Thank you to the SaraCarbon team and everyone involved for the strong collaboration and commitment in making this programme a success.
