Limited microclimatic buffering capacity in boreal forests calls for sustainable management strategies
Forest canopies regulate the energy exchange between the atmosphere and Earth’s surface, creating microclimates that are often buffered from open-air temperature extremes and are critical for forest species under climate warming. However, the magnitude of this thermal buffering is strongly influenced by forest structure and management, and remains understudied. Using a comprehensive dataset of in-situ microclimate time series and high-resolution …
Predicting Spatial Patterns of Sindbis Virus (Sinv) Infection Risk in Finland Using Vector, Host and Environmental Data
Pogosta disease is a mosquito-borne infection, caused by Sindbis virus (SINV), which causes epidemics of febrile rash and arthritis in Northern Europe and South Africa. Resident grouse and migratory birds play a significant role as amplifying hosts and various mosquito species, including Aedes cinereus , Culex pipiens , Cx. torrentium and Culiseta morsitans are documented vectors. As specific treatments are not available for SINV infections, and …
High potential for loss of permafrost landforms in a changing climate
The presence of ground ice in Arctic soils exerts a major effect on permafrost hydrology and ecology, and factors prominently into geomorphic landform development. As most ground ice has accumulated in near-surface permafrost, it is sensitive to variations in atmospheric conditions. Typical and regionally widespread permafrost landforms such as pingos, ice-wedge polygons, and rock glaciers are closely tied to ground ice. However, under ongoing cl…
Biogeophysical controls on soil-atmosphere thermal differences
Soil temperature (ST) has a key role in Arctic ecosystem functioning and global environmental change. However, soil thermal conditions do not necessarily follow synoptic temperature variations. This is because local biogeophysical processes can lead to a pronounced soil-atmosphere thermal offset (T) while altering the coupling ( ) between ST and ambient air temperature (AAT). Here, we aim to uncover the spatiotemporal variation in these parameter…
