In these presets
Wetland
Bog, fen, reedbed, marsh and open water. Blanket and raised bog, lowland fens, reedbeds, upland flushes, priority ponds and lakes, coastal and floodplain grazing marsh, and chalk rivers: with Ramsar sites and nutrient neutrality catchments, because on a wetland site the hydrology and the nutrient budget are usually the same conversation.
Upland
Moorland and the high ground: blanket bog, upland heath, mountain heaths and willow scrub, upland calcareous grassland, hay meadows and flushes, with the Moorland Change Map and the non-priority grass moorland and fragmented heath layers so you can see what has been lost as well as what remains. National Parks and CRoW access land are on because most upland work happens inside one or both.
