This intermediate course will introduce a plethora of habitats, all falling under the umbrella of ‘mire’.
Bogs and marshes are among the richest of habitats and both are examples of mires, home to specific plants adapted to grow in the often very harsh environmental conditions. You will spend time exploring the ecology of these unique habitats and the rich botanical assemblages that can be found there!
