The total area of boreal peatlands is about 3.5 million km2 and they are estimated to contain 15–30% of the global soil carbon (C) storage. In Finland, about 60 000 km2, or 60% of the original peatland area, has been drained, mainly for forestry im

We studied organic matter accumulation dynamics in peatland surface soil, using the root collar depth of tree-ring aged Scots pine seedlings for dating the base level of quantitative soil samples. The data consisted of 222 samples collected from 47 f

Recently introduced modifications to timber harvesting, such as leaving retention trees and applying prescribed burning, are likely to have an influence on the occurrence of pests affecting regeneration, such as pine weevils ( Hylobius spp.). We anal

The long-term fire history of the spruce-dominated forests of the Ulvinsalo strict nature reserve in Kuhmo, eastern Finland (63°58′N, 30°22′E), was studied by means of charcoal particle layer records and macroscopic charcoal particles in peat a

Local fire history covering the entire Holocene period at a dry forest site in North Karelia, eastern Finland (ca. 63°07' N, 30°44' E), was reconstructed on the basis of visible charcoal layers from peat deposits of a small mire basin. Seven points

The pollen stratigraphy of an ombrotrophic patterned ridge-hollow raised bog in the Salym-Yugan Mire Area in boreal West Siberia (60°109N, 72°509E) covers the entire Holocene period. Pollen data from three parallel peat cores suggest that, contrary

Valid reconstruction of long-term forest fire histories from individual peat cores usually fails, for a number of reasons, even though visible charcoal horizons in peat are indisputable evidence of local or in-situ fires. Both the dating and reliabil

The rates of carbon (C) accumulation and the role of fires in the C dynamics of the major types of boreal West Siberian mires were investigated. Detailed analysis of dry bulk density, C, and N concentration and age of the peat layers were used to det

The fire history of a dry Boreal forest site in eastern Finland before settlement in the area was studied by means of charcoal and pollen analysis of annually laminated lake sediments. The average estimated local fire interval of 70-80 years correspo

Dendrochronological data and microscopic charcoal particle series from annually laminated lake sediment covering the past 520 years were compared. Slash-and-burn cultivation had been practised in the area (63°109N, 30°589E) for about 300 years duri
