Predicting valuable forest habitats using an indicator species for biodiversity
2020
Intensive management of boreal forests impairs forest biodiversity and species of old-growth forest. Effective measures to support biodiversity require detection of locations valuable for conservation. We applied species distribution models (SDMs) to a species of mature forest, the northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis, goshawk), that is often associated with hotspots of forest biodiversity. We located optimal sites for the goshawk on a landscape scale, assessed their state under intensified logging operations and identified characteristics of goshawks' nesting sites in boreal forests. Optimal sites for the goshawk covered only 3.4% of the boreal landscape and were mostly located outside pro…
Eating disorders on the web: risks and resources.
2009
Our work is aimed at exploring the recent literature data on web sites, forums, and blogs, which promote eating disorders as normal life styles and their implication in the changes of the psychopatology of such disorders. We also want to understand whether new technologies have an impact in the course of the disorders or, on the other hand, whether they can also represent an instrument for searching help or information about them. The search strategy included a search of PsycINFO, Medline, and Ovid databases to identify research reports about pro-ana sites and their implication on the course of anorexia using the following key words: pro-ana, thinspiration, anorexia-web, online help eating …
Kotiblogien julkiset käpertymisen maisemat
2014
Tarkastelemme tässä artikkelissa naisten kirjoittamien blogien joukkoa, jota nimitämme kotiblogeiksi. Analysoimme sitä, miten kodista tulee maisema ja millaisista maisemista blogien kuvasto koostuu. Osoitamme, että koti elettynä paikkana ja julkisesti kotiblogeissa representoituna kuvastona ovat jännitteisessä suhteessa toisiinsa. Lisäksi kysymme, mitkä ovat kotiblogien maisemien modaliteetit ja miten niiden kautta tuotetaan sukupuolta peerReviewed
Indonezyjska autonomiczna prowincja Aceh - rozsadnik islamskiego radykalizmu?
2018
Nękana najdłuższym konfliktem zbrojnym w dziejach Indonezji (pomiędzy separatystami a wojskiem indonezyjskim) prowincja Aceh na północy Sumatry uzyskała upragnioną szeroką autonomię w ramach unitarnego państwa. Paradoksalnie do postępów procesu pokojowego przyczyniło się tragiczne w skutkach tsunami, m.in. dlatego, że ofiarodawcy pomocy międzynarodowej wymagali przede wszystkim pokoju i bezpieczeństwa na tym obszarze, a dla władz centralnych nałożenie się na siebie dwóch problemów w tej prowincji też było zbyt dużym wyzwaniem. Korzystając z autonomii, władze prowincji zaczęły wdrażać szereg rozwiązań prawnych, powodujących, że prowincja ta w swym radykalizmie islamskim odbiega znacznie od w…
Homing blogs as ambivalent spaces for feminine agency
2017
This article discusses a form of lifestyle blogging where women blog about their homes and everyday lives. In these homing blogs, selfrepresentations are characteristically spatially demarcated within the private sphere of the home. As these repeated representations of women in their homes take place in the public space of the internet, homing blogs work towards naturalizing the home as a women’s sphere. Written and commented on mostly by other women, homing blogs represent a feminine form of self-expression and communication that functions as a discursive expression of ongoing social, economic, and cultural changes in affluent Western societies. In this article, Finnish versions of these h…
