• New applications of zoobenthos measurements for risk assessment of chemicals in aquatic ecosystems 

  Salmelin, Johanna (University of Jyväskylä, 2015)

  Benthic animals in aquatic ecosystems suffer from various anthropogenic pollutants. A challenge in risk assessment of chemicals in aquatic ecosystems (i.e. ecological risk assessment) has been to balance cost-efficiency ...

• Food-web complexity, consumer behavior, and diet specialism: impacts on ecosystem stability 

  Perälä, Tommi; Kuisma, Mikael; Uusi-Heikkilä, Silva; Kuparinen, Anna (Springer Nature, 2024)

  Ecological stability is a fundamental aspect of food web dynamics. In this study, we explore the factors influencing stability in complex ecological networks, characterizing it through biomass oscillations and species ...

• A comparison of the impacts of introduced signal crayfish and native noble crayfish in boreal lake ecosystems 

  Ercoli, Fabio (University of Jyväskylä, 2014)

• Aquatic effects and risk assessment of multi-metal leachates from metal mining and acid sulphate soils 

  Wallin, Jaana (Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2018)

  Leachates and effluents from acid sulphate soils and metal mining compose a significant part of metal and sulphate loads into aquatic environments in Finland. Acid sulphate soils have deteriorated the water systems of ...

• Species’ ecological functionality alters the outcome of fish stocking success predicted by a food-web model 

  Uusi-Heikkilä, Silva; Perälä, Tommi; Kuparinen, Anna (Royal Society Publishing, 2018)

  Fish stocking is used worldwide in conservation and management, but its effects on food-web dynamics and ecosystem stability are poorly known. To better understand these effects and predict the outcomes of stocking, we ...
