Riparian zones are critical for functional integrity of riverscapes and conservation of
riverscape biodiversity. The synergism of intermediate flood-induced disturbances, moist …

Riparian zones are among the most valuable ecosystems on the earth. They act as the
ecological engineers that improve river health through delivering a range of ecosystem …

Whereas there is evidence that mixed-species approaches to production forestry in general
can provide positive outcomes relative to monocultures, it is less clear to what extent …

Understanding changes in water quality over time and landscape and anthropogenic factors
affecting them are of paramount importance to human and ecosystem health. We analyzed …

Freshwaters of the boreal and temperate regions have experienced increased browning
during the last decades. Browning, or brownification, is mostly driven by increased organic …

Spatially extensive high-resolution soil moisture mapping is valuable in practical forestry
and land management, but challenging. Here we present a novel technique involving use of …

Retention approaches in forest management are today common in several North European
countries, integrated into the clearcutting practice as a way to promote biodiversity and …

Streams are important emitters of CO2 but extreme spatial variability in their physical
properties can make upscaling very uncertain. Here, we determined critical drivers of stream …

Riparian zones of rivers are transitional environments between land and water ecosystems
with distinct hydrological gradients, soils and habitats strongly related to their functioning …

Nitrogen (N) availability plays multiple roles in the boreal landscape, as a limiting nutrient to
forest growth, determinant of terrestrial biodiversity, and agent of eutrophication in aquatic …
