Species richness patterns of ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in forest fragments
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Nineteen forest fragments were studied in the Bereg Plain, Hungary, and SW Ukraine. This area contains natural forest patches, mainly of oak and hornbeam. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of fragmentation ... -
Behavior in a wide range of choices: substrate preferences of threatened wood-inhabiting species in a mixed old-growth boreal forest
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)When everything is available: substrate preferences of threatened wood-inhabiting species in a mixed old-growth boreal forest In intensively managed forests, many wood-inhabiting species became threatened because of the ... -
Snag fall rates in Fennoscandian forests
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Snags (standing dead trees) are an integral component of natural boreal forests, serving multiple functions, including habitat for a variety of dead wood-dependent organisms, and as a dynamic carbon storage. As a result ... -
Intrinsic and extrinsic correlates of range change in mammals
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The global conservation status of all mammals has been evaluated for the first time in 2008, and in 2010 Hoffman et al. (2010) made a retrospective assessment related to the year 1996. A recent study by Di Marco et al. ... -
Biodiversity and ecosystem services in forest - the ‘BioHolz’ project
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Whenever a tree dies, it makes room for millions of organisms contributing to the crucial ecosystem process of decomposition. The diversity of saproxylic organisms, which are depending in at least some stage of their life ... -
Partnering for nature conservation. NGO-farmer collaboration for meadow bird protection in the Netherlands
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)In order to reverse the trend of continuous decline in species diversity and abundance in agricultural landscapes, various governance arrangements have been implemented that promote, organise and finance nature conservation ... -
Sustainability performance of national bio-economies
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Despite the current drop in price, many fossil fuel resources are becoming increasingly scarce and their consumption is associated with climate change and harmful effects on ecosystems and human health. At the same time, ... -
Biocultural diversity in the Cyclops Mountains, Papua Province, Indonesia: Threats and opportunities
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The dominant model of conservation since the late 19th century has been creation of protected areas and use of charismatic ‘umbrella’ species to garner donor support and funding for externally conceived conservation ... -
Distribution of Decapoda in Hungary and the impacts of the invasive red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii, Girard 1852) to the native ecosystem
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The aim of our studies to summarise the current status of the Decapods species in Hungary and presented the effect of the red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii ) to the species composition in a tributary stream of the ... -
Biodiversity conservation in a telecoupled world: a framework
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Telecoupling is a global process that increasingly dominates land-use interactions and trade. Despite its obvious large implications for biodiversity conservation, how to manage telecoupled forces and how to implement ... -
Scale-dependent mitigation of pollination – winners and losers
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Ongoing agricultural intensification and landscape simplification pose a threat to wild pollinators and the pollination service they provide to both crops and wild plants. As a result, there is currently a strong focus on ... -
Aquatic ecosystems in change: capturing the impacts of fishing and environmental stressors by utilising ecological network theory
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Understanding how wild populations respond to multiple environmental stressors, and how they recover following depletion, is fundamental to conservation biology and the sustainable use of resources. Fisheries represent a ... -
Age and season-related habitat selection patterns of the bearded vulture (Gypaetus barbatus) in the Swiss Alps: a basis for predicting conflict-zones with wind energy construction
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The recent increase of wind energy use in Central Europe incurs potential impacts on wildlife. Large soaring raptors, like the bearded vulture, are particularly exposed to collision risk with wind turbines as they sometimes ... -
Matching compensation sites with potential ecological compensation (EC) actions
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Ecological compensation (EC) is the practice of transforming an area to recover ecological functions and characteristics that have been impaired due to the exploitation of natural resources (e.g. mining, logging) and changes ... -
Performance and conservation of a refugial beech (Fagus sylvatica) stand in SW France
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)The identification and conservation of microrefugia that allow local species persistence in otherwise inhospitable landscapes is now receiving great attention. Yet it remains little understood how the interplay of the local ... -
In-stream restoration in forestry impacted catchments: benefits to stream habitats, brown trout populations and society
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Forestry and wood industry have formed a foundation for Finland’s national economy, yet inevitably at the expense of aquatic environments. From 1940s to 1970s, to provide energy resources for the industry sector, majority ... -
Tradeoffs and Synergies in MPA impact for Social and Ecological Objectives in Indonesia
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Marine conservation strategies often allocate considerable resources towards the establishment and management of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) with the expectation they will both provide sustainable fisheries that support ... -
How global bioeconomy policies and local fire management drive Mediterranean forest landscapes and their associated fire regimes
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Europe's bioeconomy policy seeks to diversify the energy sources for industrial purposes through the gradual replacement of fossil fuels by the sustainable use of renewable biological resources (e.g. forest products), ... -
Structural complexity in managed and strictly protected mountain forests: effects on the habitat suitability for indicator bird species
(Open Science Centre, University of Jyväskylä, 2018)Increasing the proportion of unmanaged forest in multi-functional forest landscapes is a central goal of international and national conservation strategies. However, the structural development in newly created forest ... -
