Pedigree reconstruction reveals large scale movement patterns and population dynamics of wolverines (Gulo gulo) across Fennoscandia by Higgins, Stephanie

The apparent population crash in heath-hares Lepus timidus sylvaticus of southern Sweden by Winiger, Alexander

“…Scientific and circumstantial evidence of recent decades indicate decreasing population trends in the native mountain hares Lepus timidus of Fennoscandia (Finland, Sweden, Norway). It has been suggested that climate warming, habitat degradation, pathogens, predation and interspecific competition are potential candidates to drive this supposed decline. …”

Saproxylic beetles in two types of fine woody debris of Norway spruce by Manak, Vitezslav

“…Fine Woody Debris (FWD) has been considered as the promising source of forest fuel in Fennoscandia. Main sources are logging residues which formerly were retained on clearcuts. …”

Habitat modeling for rustic bunting (Emberiza rustica) territories in boreal Sweden by Larsson, Emil

“…The rustic bunting (Emberiza rustica) is a bird breeding in swampy boreal forests of Russia and Fennoscandia. In the last decades, populations in Norway, Sweden and Finland have declined drastically. …”

Multiple scale habitat selection of the Siberian jay Perisoreus infaustus in a sub arctic managed forest landscape by Heap, Christopher

“…Serious declines in the population of Siberian jays Perisoreus infaustus have been observed in recent decades in parts of Fennoscandia. These population declines have been attributed to modern forestry altering habitat from native old spruce to pine plantations and habitat fragmentation. …”

Fjällräven i ett föränderligt klimat by Marander, Emma

“…Many conservation measures have been taken, especially in Fennoscandia, in the form of support feeding the artic fox and controlling the red fox expansion. …”

Nitrogen export from a boreal stream network following forest harvesting: seasonal nitrate removal and conservative export of organic forms by Schelker, Jakob, Sponseller, Ryan, Ring, Eva, Högbom, Lars, Löfgren, Stefan, Laudon, Hjalmar

“…Clear-cutting is today the primary driver of large-scale forest disturbance in boreal regions of Fennoscandia. Among the major environmental concerns of this practice for surface waters is the increased mobilization of nutrients, such as dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) into streams. …”

Effects of tree retention on cavity-nesting birds in northern Sweden by Domingo Gómez, Eva

“…With the intention of reducing the impacts of timber harvest, since the mid-1990’s variable amounts of green and dead trees are retained at the clear-cuts in Fennoscandia as a conservation measure supposed to improve conditions for biodiversity. …”

Community structure of polyporous fungi after wildfire in boreal forest by Vahlström, Isak

“…The number of wildfires have declined in boreal Fennoscandia due to effective fire suppression. A better understanding of the fire-effects on species communities is necessary to obtain effective conservation. …”

Evaluation of an ectomycorrhizal macrofungi as an indicator species of high conservation value pine-heath forests in northern Sweden by Lindman, Jenny

“…Since the 1950s, the development of modern rotation forestry in boreal Fennoscandia has resulted in a severe reduction of older forests, and a high degree of fragmentation among the small patches that remains of old forest. …”
