Dwarf shrub expansion and loss of lichens distinctly dominate multi-decadal changes in northern boreal understory plant communities
Northern boreal forests and treelines are particularly sensitive to the current climate change that has already resulted in increased productivity, shrub expansion and up- and northward shifts of species. However, these changes are expected to be gradual or lagged due to slow process rates, and can be buffered to some extent by large herbivores. Multi-decadal observations of understory change in northern boreal forests remain scarce, particularly…

Hemispheric- and Continental-Scale Patterns of Similarity in Mountain Tundra
Understanding the full range of biodiversity patterns from local to global scales, through the study of the drivers of multiscale plant community composition and diversity, is a current goal of biogeography. A synthetic understanding of to what extent vegetation compositional patterns are produced by biotic factors, geography, or climate and how these patterns vary across scales is needed. This lack hinders prediction of the effects of climate ch…
Rich-fen bryophytes in past and recent mire vegetation in a successional land uplift area
Most rich-fen bryophyte species are currently declining and red listed in many European countries. Little is known about their past and current occurrence. We investigated past and recent bryophyte assemblages in mires in the land uplift coast of Finland. The study areas included primary succession areas where mire development started c. 6000 BP. In total, seven mires were studied in two successional transects along the land uplift coast. The pas…

Sahlman-Karlsson, Siiri. Specimens of American Finnish. A Field Study of Linguistic Behavior
Jen unu el la malmultaj studoj pri la finna lingvo en Usono, verkita de aütorino kies unua studo pri la temo aperis jam en 1949. Si esploris la finnlingvajn komunumojn de la orienta kaj mez-okcidenta Usono dum tri jardekoj, kun interrompoj, kaj bedaürinde, sen sonbendaparato, manko kiu cefe sentigas en la fonologia parto. Do sia metodo ne estis tiel science rigora kiel tiu de la samfakulo Virtaranta, kies studoj tamen nur nun ekaperas. La stilo e…

French National Character in the Twentieth Century
Despite a long history as a political entity, France cannot be said to have developed a distinctive national charac ter much before the seventeenth century—a peasant, artisan, bourgeois type of character, sociable but not hospitable, pre ferring a settled existence, and inclined to fall into routine. But this is only one pole of French character. There is the opposite pole of the aristocracy, with its penchant for glory. Memories of grandeur can …
Tocqueville and William Ellery Channing
SEVERAL WRITERS have been impressed by the prophetic quality of some of Alexis de Tocqueville's formulations on American literature. Without a consuming interest in American belles-lettres, without a single explicit reference to any American poet or novelist, Tocqueville, in I839, put his finger on certain qualities of this literature which only the future would unveil. Edward Dowden and Charles Cestre were to find a striking correlation between …
