Environmental characteristics and anthropogenic impact jointly modify aquatic macrophyte species diversity
Elo, Merja; Alahuhta, Janne; Kanninen, Antti; Meissner, Kristian K.; Seppälä, Katri; Mönkkönen, Mikko (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2018)Species richness and spatial variation in community composition (i.e., beta diversity) are key measures of biodiversity. They are largely determined by natural factors, but also increasingly affected by anthropogenic ... -
Management diversity begets biodiversity in production forest landscapes
Duflot, Rémi; Fahrig, Lenore; Mönkkönen, Mikko (Elsevier, 2022)How to manage forest for biodiversity conservation is an ongoing debate. We argue that maximizing biodiversity in managed forest landscapes requires a diversity of forest management regimes in space and time. This will ... -
Desiccation risk favours prevalence and diversity of tardigrade communities and influences their trophic structure in alpine ephemeral rock pools
Vecchi, Matteo; Ferrari, Claudio; Stec, Daniel; Calhim, Sara (Springer, 2022)Rock pools are ephemeral freshwater habitats characterized by their small size, well-defined boundaries, and periodic desiccation, making them ideal model systems to answer numerous ecological questions. Although there are ... -
Combining historical and ecological data: Impact of past population history on forest structure and fungal diversity in Russian Karelia
Tikkanen, Olli-Pekka; Chernyakova, Irina; Predtechnskaya, Olga; Ruokolainen, Anna; Heikkilä, Raimo (Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Before 19th century, the impact of forest industry on forests of Russian Karelia was minimal, and, in the first half of the 20th century, very large areas of western taiga remained beyond the limit of economic profitability ... -
Half a century of multiple anthropogenic stressors has altered northern forest understory plant communities
Strengbom, Joachim; Hedwall, Per-Ola; Gustafsson, Lena; Brunet, Jörg; Lindbladh, Matts; Axelsson, Anna-Lena (Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The boreal forests constitute the largest forest biome in the northern hemisphere. These forests are under increasing anthropogenic impact from intensified forest management, eutrophication and climate change, which may ...
