Assessing the effects of information on the level of support toward charismatic and inconspicuous wildlife species in a highly threatened wetland by the urban population of Valdivia, Chile
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
The inclusion of human communities into practical conservation of threatened species has received increasing recognition. One way to achieve this is to understand the current (actual) relation between people and wildlife ...
Assessing the impact of post-fire forest management using beetles and ants as bioindicators
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
Fire is one of the most frequent disturbances in forests ecosystems. Burnt forests in southern Europe are usually harvested with heavy machinery leaving very little woody biomass on-site. This second disturbance can alter ...
Assessing the long-term effect of Natura 2000 network on common breeding bird communities

Research has shown the importance of considering functional diversity when constructing planetary safety boundaries for biodiversity. This is becoming a highly debated topic within the scientific community and it is ...
Assessing the status, threats and future conservation action for the critically endangered Chinese alligator in Southern Anhui Province, China
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
Chinese ecosystems are facing intense biodiversity loss. Pressure on ecosystems is particularly severe in the Yangtze basin, a 220,000 km2 area supporting 300 million people in eastern China. The Chinese alligator (Alligator ...
Association between awareness of environmental consequences, materialism and environmental philanthropic behavior among potential online donors
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
Despite its importance for conservation organizations, environmental philanthropic behavior that consists of donations of both money and time, has so far been an understudied phenomenon within pro-environmental behavior ...
At which spatial and temporal scales can fungi indicate habitat connectivity?
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
Isolation of habitats in space and time affects species globally and in a multitude of ecosystems [1]. It is however often difficult to assess the level of isolation from the point of view of the focal species [2]. ...

Reintroductions may boost ecosystem function and environmental sustainability. However potential conflicts of interest suggest that the restoration of native wild carnivore species benefit from the understanding of its ...
Attraction, avoidance or indifference: How fauna respond to edges in fire-prone landscapes
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
We know quite a lot about how animals respond to edges in modified and fragmented landscapes, but what do they do in natural systems when edges are created by fire? Are some animals attracted to burnt edges? Or is it safer ...
