Hype or hero: will blockchain boost conservation?
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Blockchain technology has recently been heralded as the solution to all sorts of societal problems, from fraud, to human-trafficking, to energy inefficiency. Blockchain technology has also been presented as a possible ... -
Assessing the resilience of ecosystem functions in Mediterranean wetlands
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)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 ... -
Ecosystem carbon and biodiversity in thirteen landscapes around the world
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Impacts on biodiversity are considered one of the main detrimental consequences of changing climates. However, climate change mitigation is also directly influencing biodiversity if it is done by adding ecosystem carbon ... -
Prospects for genomic monitoring using minimally invasive sampling
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The decreasing cost and increasing scope and power of emerging genomic technologies are reshaping the field of molecular ecology. However, many modern genomic approaches (e.g., RAD-seq) require large amounts of high quality ... -
Introduction and the EU 2013-2018 guidelines for assessing Favourable Con-servation Status of species
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Introduction and the EU 2013-2018 guidelines for assessing Favourable Conservation Status of species The conservation status of the habitats and species listed in the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) is to be assessed ... -
Plant reproductive success in highly fragmented Valais vineyard landscapes: a quasi-experimental approach
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The ongoing intensification of agriculture has led to habitat loss, degradation and fragmentation with their concomitant negative effects on biodiversity. For plant populations relying on pollinators those processes are ... -
The Hungarian ecosystem services assessment – an example for a national level science-policy interface
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The 2nd target of the EU Biodiversity Strategy requires the member states to assess and map the most important ecosystem services (ES) and integrate these results into policy decisions. Led by the Ministry of Agriculture ... -
Trust predicts cooperation with conservation conflict interventions in a framed public-goods game
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Conservation conflicts are widespread, wicked problems, with damaging environmental and social consequences. Many different types of interventions have been designed and implemented to manage conservation conflicts. However, ... -
Advanced Earth observation techniques in forest biodiversity and carbon sequestration mapping
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Integrating multisource Earth observation (EO) data and methods allows studying forest biodiversity and carbon sequestration related questions at various spatial and temporal scales. We aim to develop and produce novel ... -
There is more than meets the eye: Evidences of a multi-sensory and restorative experience of nature in a French urban park.
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)As we move along in this century, western societies appear more and more separated from nature, notably in urban contexts. However, regular contacts with urban nature have been shown to have positive effects on human health, ... -
Indigenous and Local Knowledge: a Major Novelty of IPBES
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLCs) are the main users and caretakers of nature and its contributions to people over large areas of Europe and Central Asia. Their understanding of nature, drivers, futures and ... -
Monitoring satellite remote sensing essential biodiversity variables to guide management in the Spanish National Park Network
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Based on the use of Satellite Remote Sensing - Essential Biodiversity Variables (SRS-EBVs), we developed a monitoring system (REMOTE) to guide management in the Spanish National Park Network. REMOTE is based on the analysis ... -
Global-scale assessment of forest management impacts on biodiversity patterns
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Integrating biodiversity conservation into forest management has been highlighted as one of the means for halting and reversing the recent biodiversity loss. This integration requires that we understand the mechanistic ... -
Environmental correlates of the conservation value of boreal headwater streams and their riparian forests
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Headwater streams and their riparian forests are considered as biodiversity hotspots and key habitats for the conservation of aquatic and terrestrial biota [1, 2]. However, most previous research has focused on single ... -
Social media data for conservation science and practice
