Data for conservation: GBIF supporting conservation science and its application
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
The need for evidence-based conservation remains of vital importance in achieving targets as set out by the Convention of Biological Diversity. The Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) is an open-data research ...
Declining populations of European mountain birds
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
Mountain areas often hold special species communities and are thus in the high priority list of conservation. Changes in human land use, such as grazing pressure and afforestation, and especially in climate have been ...
Density and habitat use of lions and spotted hyenas in Mole National Park in northern Ghana

Knowledge on density trends and habitat use of wildlife species is vital for the development of conservation and management plans. By comparing density estimates for the spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) and lion (Panthera ...
Density-dependent detectability in dynamic occupancy survey: a case study on a vulnerable beetle species in hollow trees
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)
Conservation of threaten species living in fragmented habitats crucially relies on evaluating their occupancy and their ability to colonize and persist in habitat patches. Fitting stochastic patch occupancy models (SPOMs) ...
