PEAT is a group of researchers from Toulouse, using peat as a past environmental archive.

PEAT members are working in more or less all the geographic zones where peat accumulation can be found, wihth a focus on Sphagnum ombrotrophic mires found in Europe, Canada and Patagonia (including Tierra del Fuego). Peat samples from all the world are available for research & scientific collaborations. Samples are stored frozen or freeze dried.
