Limited data availability is a challenge that hinders all data visualization tools — the Dashboard included. The DataDENT Initiative showed that in many data visualization tools there are no data for the indicators of interest, data are out of date, trend data are not available, data are only available for a small number of countries, […] More
Microbial community classes are determined by local conditions We analysed 753 bacterial communities sampled from water-filled beech tree-holes in the southwest of the UK32 (see Supplementary Table 1 and Supplementary Fig. 1). Communities were grown in a medium made of beech leaves as substrate for 7 days and then their composition interrogated through 16S rRNA sequencing (see […] More
Field work In all, >1500 environmental samples were collected from terrestrial mosses, soils (top layer, ±upper 2 cm), and littoral sediments from lakes and ponds, originating from various locations worldwide. All samples were stored dark, and if possible, cool (<10 °C) during transport. From these, P. borealis cultures were established and used for morphological and molecular analyses. […] More

National forest Inventory based on direct field measurements: m-NFI In one campaign of the current m-NFI survey, direct field measurements were conducted for 5 years at more than 10,000 plots throughout Japan20. These plots formed a 4-km grid interval across Japan. Measurements were conducted at given plots including forests. The third m-NFI survey was conducted […] More
Historical background All of the individuals in this study were evacuated from Finnish Karelia during the Second World War. The Soviet Union invaded Finland in 1939, starting the Winter War. As part of the Moscow Peace Treaty of 1940, Finland ceded territory, including Karelia, to the Soviet Union, and evacuated the entire population to the […] More
