Mires of Finland – Nature Lapland in the North to the Hemiboreal Mires on the Southern Coast of Finland THE FINNISH ENVIRONMENT 28 | 2006 MIRES OF This book presents a transect of Finnish mire nature from Forest Mires of Finland – NATURE Lapland in the north to the hemiboreal mires on the southern coast of Finland. It has been compiled in connection with the International Daughters of the Baltic Sea F Mire Conservation Group field symposium in Finland in July 2006, and INLAND – it gives an overview of the biodiversity of Finnish mires on mire Raimo Heikkilä, Tapio Lindholm and system, massif, site and species levels as well as about the ecology, Teemu Tahvanainen (eds.) utilization, conservation and restoration of Finnish mires. A special D topic is the primary succession of mires on the land uplift coast of the AUGHTERS OFTHE BALTIC Bothnian Bay, which is a globally unique phenomenon in the boreal zone. Most of the mires presented here are protected as national parks or mire reserves. Thus this book gives a positive view over Finnish mires. We must remember, however, that about 75 % of Finnish mires have been destroyed by forestry drainage, agriculture, peat mining or reservoir building.

The Finnish Environment 28 | 2006 Guide to the landscapes of Finnish mires from the Baltic Sea coast in different times of the Holocene Raimo Heikkilä, Tapio Lindholm & Teemu Tahvanainen This book presents a transect of Finnish mire nature from Forest Lapland in the north to the hemiboreal mires on the southern coast of Finland. It has been compiled in con- nection with the International Mire Conservation Group field symposium in Finland in July 006, but the editors of the volume wish it to give a more general overview of the biodiversity of Finnish mires on mire system, massif, site and species levels as well as about the utilization, conservation and restoration of Finnish mires. A special topic is the primary succession of mires on the land uplift coast of the Bothnian Bay, which is a globally unique phenomenon in the boreal zone. The mires described in this book cover a wide range of mire massifs from northern flark aapamires to sedge aapamires and eccentric bogs in central Finland, concentric raised bog in western and southwestern Finland, and the plateau bogs in the southern coastal area. There are successional series of the development of young aapamires and bogs from shallow coastal waters in the land uplift coast near Oulu town, and recent mire succession due to the lowering of the water table of lakes. Mire site types in the mires cover a wide ecological range from bogs to rich fens, spring-fed mires and flooded swamps. Almost all mire plant and bird species recorded from Finland can be found in these mires. Most of the mires presented here are protected as national parks, strict nature reserves or mire reserves. Thus this book gives a positive view over Finnish mires. We must remember, however, that about 7 % of Finnish mires have been destroyed by forestry drainage, agriculture, peat mining or reservoir building. Therefore, it is essential to continue the work to protect the remaining pristine mires, especially in southern and central Finland. One aim of this book is to emphasize the great diversity and high conservation value of Finnish mires. During the compiling of this book it was revealed that despite a long mire research tradition and intensive inventories conducted in nature reserves recently, we know surprisingly little about our mires. Even though the examples described in this book belong to our most famous protected mires, the knowledge about site types, plant species and development history of them is very scattered. For example, we found pollen diagrams for only two of the mires, and there were several, for which there was no knowledge about peat deposits at all. Macrosubfossil studies revealing the development of the mire itself were also very scanty. The knowledge about birds covers mainly land birds, for which line censuses are suitable, but information about waterfowl was hard to find, even though mires host a rich fauna of it. Knowledge about other animal groups was almost lacking. Some mires have been well studied for hydrology and ecology, but from most of them there is no concrete data. All this emphasizes the importance of mire research in Finland – land of mires.

Aapamire in southern Lapland Teuravuoma-Kivijärvenvuoma mire reserve Eino Lappalainen, Eero Kaakinen & Teemu Tahvanainen The Great Teuravuoma aapamire system in western Lapland lies some 10 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, and is the biggest mire system in Finland. It covers an area in excess of 000 hectares. In this system, there are separate mires. The largest mire massif is the Teuravuoma massif that covers 7080 ha and is the biggest single mire in Finland. In addition, there are 1 lakes and the 80 km long Naamijoki River and its tributaries within the Great Teuravuoma system. More than 10 springs discharge to the mires. The springs have greatly influenced the vegetation and the paludification during the last 10000 years. The total amount of peat accumulated is 60 million m and as much as million tonnes of water is held by the peat layers. Only the eas- tern part of the originally huge mire system is in its natural state and included in the Teuravuoma-Kivijärvenvuoma reserve. The area of the European NATURA 000 network in Teuravuoma-Kivijärvenvuoma is 788 ha. The area was included in the National Mire Protection Programme in 1981 and it is included in the Ramsar list (Ramsar site no. 1). Reindeer husbandry is an important livelihood in the surrounding areas and also permitted in the reserve. Hunting, fishing and picking of mushrooms and berries are permitted as well. Vast aapa massifs are the dominant feature of the Great Teuravuoma system, whi- le another distinct feature is the great number of scattered forest islets. The reserve consists mostly of mires, and forests only make up about 10% of the area. Open mire types cover 60% of the mire area. Drier, treed mire types are mostly pine mires, while spruce mires are also common. There are altogether 61 ha of rich mire types in the Natura 000 reserve, most of which are located within the Teuravuoma massif. Of this area, 8 ha are open rich fens. Rich spruce mire types and rich birch fens together add 90 ha to the area of rich mire types. The rich birch fens are especially important as habitats for threatened species

ISBN 978-82-471-2333-1 (electronic ver.) ISSN 1503-8181 Doctoral theses at NTNU, 2010:179 Printed by NTNU-trykk Synopsis PREFACE It was the spring of 2005, and it was the right time to move onwards. A position as a research fellow working with long-term time series at the Museum of Natural History and Archaeology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) was announced, and a PhD-project was developed with the studies of former haymaking lands at Sølendet and Tågdalen nature reserves as a starting point. Work began in earnest in January 2006, and continued at an ever increasing pace until July 2010, when all the parts of the thesis were finally completed and assembled. The study was financed by NTNU, and was carried out at the Museum of Natural History and Archaeology and the Institute of Biology, both NTNU. I am deeply grateful to my main supervisor Professor Asbjørn Moen at the Museum of Natural History and Archaeology, and my co-supervisor Associate Professor Bård Pedersen at the Institute of Biology. This project rests on the long-term studies of rich hayfens that were initiated by Asbjørn 40 years ago, and that are still ongoing, much due to his continuous effort.

    6 INDICATOR SPECIES The idea that a group of species can be used as indicators to assess and monitor environmental quality and change is a simple and attractive one and has been successful in a number of cases. The range of species is considerable and they can be used in a variety of ways. The first group are those which are used to describe and classify communities. A good example of this is phytosociolagy, the National Vegetation Classification for instance. Here an assemblage of species is used to distinguish one community from another. Further sub-divisions of the main community and the relationships between vegetation types can be defined by considering the presence and absence of other (indicator) species. A second group of species is used to assess quality and to monitor environmental change. Perhaps the best example of this is provided by freshwater communities which are used to assess river water quality. Here there have been three approaches; first. a simple biotic index in which the differential responses of species to a pollutant is used to asses quality. Secondly, diversity indices (species richness and equitability) provides a more refined approach. Finally, the most detailed approach relates community structure to environmental variables (RIVPACS) to provide target communities against which physical and chemical stresses can be assessed. The group of indicator species which are used to identify ancient woodland or to date hedgerows is similar to a biotic index. In these cases persistence and susceptibility to disturbance are the variables which determine the presence or absence of these species. Finally there are species which have a high conservation value.

  • Effect of Different Mowing Regimes on Butterflies and Diurnal Moths on Road Verges A
    Animal Biodiversity and Conservation 29.2 (2006) 133 Effect of different mowing regimes on butterflies and diurnal moths on road verges A. Valtonen, K. Saarinen & J. Jantunen Valtonen, A., Saarinen, K. & Jantunen, J., 2006. Effect of different mowing regimes on butterflies and diurnal moths on road verges. Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 29.2: 133–148. Abstract Effect of different mowing regimes on butterflies and diurnal moths on road verges.— In northern and central Europe road verges offer alternative habitats for declining plant and invertebrate species of semi– natural grasslands. The quality of road verges as habitats depends on several factors, of which the mowing regime is one of the easiest to modify. In this study we compared the Lepidoptera communities on road verges that underwent three different mowing regimes regarding the timing and intensity of mowing; mowing in mid–summer, mowing in late summer, and partial mowing (a narrow strip next to the road). A total of 12,174 individuals and 107 species of Lepidoptera were recorded. The mid–summer mown verges had lower species richness and abundance of butterflies and lower species richness and diversity of diurnal moths compared to the late summer and partially mown verges. By delaying the annual mowing until late summer or promoting mosaic–like mowing regimes, such as partial mowing, the quality of road verges as habitats for butterflies and diurnal moths can be improved. Key words: Mowing management, Road verge, Butterfly, Diurnal moth, Alternative habitat, Mowing intensity.

  • Answers to the Comments by Reviewer RC2
    Answers to the comments by reviewer RC2: General comments: 1) My main issue with this manuscript has to do with its readability. There are numerous grammatical errors throughout, some of which are pointed out below. A native English speaker should edit the paper before resubmission. This is now done. The authors are grateful for the thorough review also concerning the language. 2) The authors tend to make some broad sweeping conclusions based on trends that are only significant across a small fraction of the total study region. I would like to see more discussion of the full picture (like Figure 9). Pg 10 L2 and Pg11 L5 are two instances where the discussion is too narrow in focus. The authors have now extended the mentioned discussions (sections 3.1.1, 3.1.3 and 3.3.) as requested. The systematic signal of change is not as dramatic in Finland as in some areas, because of the large variation of winter weather. Especially the sea ice extent of Baltic Sea affects largely the Finnish winter weather. If the Gulf of Finland and Gulf of Bothnia freeze completely the Finnish climate is almost continental in winter even on the coast. We added a comment about the hemispherical study published recently, where we studied the effect of weather parameters on the observed changes in larger areas. Section 3.1.1 main addition: Especially variable melt onset timing is in the coastal regions (Southwestern Finland and Southern Ostrobothnia) and in the Lake district. For those regions the standard deviation values of the melt onset day are 14.3, 14.7 and 14.6, respectively.

    Antti Leino, Finland 665 Multilingual Names on the Finnish Basic Map Antti Leino Finland Abstract The Finnish Basic Map and the computerised Place Name Register maintained by the National Land Survey for map-making purposes have place names in five different languages: the official Finnish and Swedish, and three semi-official Sámi languages. As one would expect, distributions of the various languages overlap, and roughly one percent of the named places have names in more than one language. All five naming systems are similar enough that semantically transparent toponyms can be translated from one language to another. The three Sámi languages are also similar enough that virtually all common multilingual names are also common in each of their respective languages. This is also true for Finnish and Swedish, but the names common to Finnish and the Sámi languages often involve elements that have a more limited geographic distribution in Finnish. All this gives some insight into the underlying cultural interplay, and also into the role of semantic transparency in name use. *** Introduction The Republic of Finland has two official and five semi-official languages, as shown in Table 1. Of these the Sámi languages, Finnish, and Swedish have the longest history of being spoken in the region, reaching further back than historical records. Pitkänen (2001) outlines how originally Finnish toponyms along the southern coast have been loaned to a new, Swedish-speaking population in the early Middle Ages, and also dates (1990) some of them to as early as the end of the last millennium B.C. Loan words in the Finnic languages also make it clear that contacts with Germanic languages have been constant since prehistoric times, and it has been argued (Itkonen 1983) that contacts with Indo-Europeans, both Baltic and Germanic, were the original cause for the differentiation of Finnic and Sámi languages.

  • Answers to the Comments by Reviewer RC1: This Is an Interesting
    Answers to the comments by reviewer RC1: This is an interesting and thorough study, but some of the methods are hard to follow. In particular, I recommend some effort on simplifying and clarifying the descriptions of sigmoid fits in sections 2.2.1 and 2.2.2; figures of example fits might help. The authors are grateful for the encouraging comment. The sigmoid fitting is described now in more detail and related images are included. The method sounds complicated, because one has to take into account also rare, but possible complications (such as marked snowfall after melt onset). However, the main complication really to take into account is the greening up of vegetation. This is demonstrated in the added Figure 2, where we also now include examples of temporary pits before melt onset and temporary peaks after snow melt. Minor comments: page 1, line 26. Forest cover having a significant influence on albedo does not follow from it being an important component of the carbon budget. This sentence is now edited according to the comment. page 2, line 11. “by in” – delete one “in” is deleted as requested. page 2, line 24 “since 200” is sufficient “Year” is removed as suggested. page 3, line 3 I think that standalone forcing of land models with climate model outputs is being dis- cussed here, but it is not clear.
