Retention Forestry to Maintain Multifunctional Forests: A World Perspective
- L. Gustafsson, S. Baker, +13 authors J. Franklin
- Biology
- 1 July 2012
The majority of the world's forests are used for multiple purposes, which often include the potentially conflicting goals of timber production and biodiversity conservation. A scientifically… Expand
Saproxylic beetles in managed and seminatural Scots pine forests: quality of dead wood matters
- M. Similä, J. Kouki, P. Martikainen
- Geography
- 17 February 2003
Habitats of saproxylic species (species that are dependent on decaying wood) have been greatly changed during the last few decades. Due to intensive forest management, volume of dead wood has… Expand
Long-term persistence of aspen – a key host for many threatened species – is endangered in old-growth conservation areas in Finland
- J. Kouki, K. Arnold, P. Martikainen
- Biology
- 2 July 2004
Abstract Large, dead and dying European aspens (Populus tremula L.) host many threatened species in Fennoscandian boreal forests. Large aspen trees have mostly disappeared and are being harvested… Expand
Forest Fragmentation in Fennoscandia: Linking Habitat Requirements of Wood-associated Threatened Species to Landscape and Habitat Changes
- J. Kouki, Satu Löfman, P. Martikainen, Seppo Rouvinen, A. Uotila
- Biology
- 1 January 2001
Fragmentation may occur simultaneously in different spatial and temporal scales. The ecological importance of fragmentation depends both on the scale of fragmentation and on the habitat requirements… Expand
A major shift to the retention approach for forestry can help resolve some global forest sustainability issues
- D. Lindenmayer, J. Franklin, +14 authors L. Gustafsson
- Geography, Biology
- 1 December 2012
Approximately 85% of the global forest estate is neither formally protected nor in areas dedicated to intensive wood production (e.g., plantations). Given the spatial extent of unprotected forests,… Expand
Short-term effects of controlled burning and green-tree retention on beetle (Coleoptera) assemblages in managed boreal forests
- E. Hyvärinen, J. Kouki, P. Martikainen, H. Lappalainen
- Biology
- 1 July 2005
Abstract Timber harvesting, and especially clear-cutting followed by soil scarification, has altered boreal forest ecosystems in important ways. For example, loss of decaying wood in many parts of… Expand
Tree retention as a conservation measure in clear-cut forests of northern Europe: a review of ecological consequences
- L. Gustafsson, J. Kouki, A. Sverdrup-Thygeson
- Geography
- 28 July 2010
Abstract Since the mid-1990s, it has been common practice to leave trees for biodiversity purposes when clear-cutting in Finland, Norway and Sweden, and regulations for such tree retention are today… Expand
Co-variation and indicators of species diversity: Can richness of forest-dwelling species be predicted in northern boreal forests?
- M. Similä, J. Kouki, M. Mönkkönen, A. Sippola, E. Huhta
- Biology
- 1 November 2006
Abstract Design and establishment of ecologically good networks of conservation areas often requires quick assessments of their biodiversity. Reliable indicators would be useful when doing such… Expand
Habitat suitability models of saproxylic red-listed boreal forest species in long-term matrix management: Cost-effective measures for multi-species conservation
- O. Tikkanen, T. Heinonen, J. Kouki, J. Matero
- Biology
- 1 December 2007
Abstract Understanding of how a large landscape or network of conservation areas and habitats of red-listed species change in time is an important topic when addressing the temporal interplay between… Expand
Assemblages of wood‐inhabiting fungi along the gradients of succession and naturalness in boreal pine‐dominated forests in Fennoscandia
- Kaisa Junninen, M. Similä, J. Kouki, H. Kotiranta
- Biology
- 1 February 2006
In boreal forests, the level of naturalness and the stage of succession explain most of the variation in forest structure within a particular forest type. Thus, these two factors should also have a… Expand
