The forest canopy is fundamentally important in biodiversity conservation and ecosystem
function. Cryptogamic epiphytes are dominant tree bole and canopy elements in temperate …

Intensive forest management has been applied in most Fennoscandian forests for a period
of almost one felling rotation. This paradigm has produced even-aged and even-structured …

Although forest edges have been studied extensively as an important consequence of
fragmentation, a unifying theory of edge influence has yet to be developed. Our objective …

Habitat loss and degradation that comes as a result of human activity is the single biggest
threat to biodiversity in the world today. Habitat Fragmentation and Landscape Change is a …

We review the ecological effects of habitat fragmentation, comparing the theoretical
approaches that have been taken to understanding it with the existing evidence from …

This review is a first attempt to combine and compare spatial distribution of the three main
water sources, rain, dew and humid air, with water-related traits of mainly epiphytic …

Epiphytic lichen biomass accumulates slowly in forest canopies. We evaluated three
alternative hypotheses for the slow accumulation of epiphytic lichens, using two experiments …

Within highly fragmented forest landscapes, the flux of matter, energy and species from the
landscape matrix into the forest fragment interior is an important ecological phenomenon …

We studied the effect of forest fragmentation on the insect community inhabiting an old‐
growth forest specialist bracket fungus, Fomitopsis rosea, in eastern Finland. Samples of the …

Although anthropogenic edges are an important consequence of timber harvesting, edges
due to natural disturbances or landscape heterogeneity are also common. Forest edges …
