The Finnish EnvironmentPäivämäärä
2012[Introduction] Approximately half of Finnish peatlands have been drained for forestry. However,
there is considerable variation regionally, and in particular in southern southern
half of Finland ca 80-90 % of the original mire area has been ditched. Drainage was
most intensive in 1960s and 1970s, but ditching has gradually decreased since that.
Drainage has extensive effects on flora and fauna of mire habitats (Laine & al. 1995b,
Aapala & Lappalainen 1998a, Aapala & Lappalainen 1998b, Vasander 1998, Heikkilä
& al. 2002). Restoration of drained mires has began relatively recently and the research
based knowledge of the ecological effects of the restoration are still forthcoming. Nevertheless,
in order for the restoration to be effective, the ecological effects of restoration
must be known. Therefore, the monitoring of the effects of restoration should be
planned and carried out carefully in experimental setups with appropriate controls. [Continues, please see the article]

Threatened grassland butterflies as indicators of microclimatic niches along an elevational gradient – Implications for conservation in times of climate change
Fartmannn, Thomas; Stuhldreher, Gregor (Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Among the factors that determine habitat quality for butterflies, an adequate microclimate has crucial importance, especially for the less mobile immature stages. Therefore, stenotopic butterflies are precise indicators ... -

Assessing Biodiversity Change of Butterfly Species (Macro-lepidoptera) in Four Bioregions in Finland
Rahman, Sumaiya (2024)Loss of biodiversity as a result of changes in land use and climate is a major hazard to ecosystems worldwide, including Finland. Effective conservation requires monitoring and measuring changes in biodiversity over time, ... -
Linking conservation biology to community assembly processes with hierarchical modelling of species communities
Ovaskainen, Otso (Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Applications in conservation biology require a profound understanding of community ecology, in particular of the processes that determine the assembly and dynamics of species assemblages at different spatiotemporal scales. ... -
Armageddon scribes: only transdisciplinarity will rescue conservation biology from irrelevancy
Bradshaw, Corey (Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)I argue that our discipline is caught in a rut of irrelevancy on the grander scale. Much of our research is focussed on refining the basics of what we essentially already know well. While there will always be processes to ...
