• Mimicking natural disturbances of boreal forests: the effects of controlled burning and creating dead wood on beetle diversity (2007, background): “species may not be sufficient to stop the wave of extinctions in boreal forests, but restoration of human altered habitats is required (Hanski 2000).”
• Slow response of plant species richness to habitat loss and fragmentation. (2005, background): “Long transient times in population and metapopulation extinction have been demonstrated with a variety of data and methods for: (i) a wide range of terrestrial and freshwater taxa in Singapore (Brook et al. 2003); (ii) tropical birds in forest fragments in Kenya (Brooks et al. 1999); (iii) primates ”
• Mitigating forest biodiversity and ecosystem service losses in the era of bio-based economy (2018, background): “For biodiversity, persistence in time of species is416 critical because global extinctions are irreversible and regional extinctions maybe time-417 consuming to remedy given the sparsity of source populations in production forest landscapes418 (Hanski 2000).”
• Ecological theory provides strong support for habitat restoration (2017, background): “There are considerable time lags detected in species extinctions following environmental change, termed “extinction debt” (Hanski, 2000).”
• Black flies in the boreal biome, key organisms in both terrestrial and aquatic environments: A review1 (2004, background): “It is a misconception that the biodiversity of boreal forests is low (Hanski, 2000).”
• The effects of forestry on carabid beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) in boreal forests (2007, background): “Therefore, in the highly altered Fennoscandian forested landscape, restoration efforts should perhaps be focused on forests adjacent to existing reserves for the maximum benefit for threatened forest species, rather than spreading these activities evenly (and thinly) over large areas (Hanski 2000).”
• Red-listed boreal forest species of Finland : associations with forest structure, tree species, and decaying wood (2006, unknown): “existing old-growth forests should be included in the conservation policy on a large scale ( Hanski 2000, Kouki et al. 2001).”
• Significance of woodland key habitats for polypore diversity and red-listed species in boreal forests (2008, background): “the basic idea that preserving small key habitats is a cost-eYcient means of protecting threatened forest species, is that minimizing the total area needed for conservation can actually maximize the extinction debt ( Hanski 2000; Ovaskainen 2002).”
• How to make more out of community data? A conceptual framework and its implementation as models and software. (2017, background): “For example, a delayed response to habitat loss may indicate an extinction debt, whereas species lacking from areas with a suitable climate may indicate dispersal limitation and thus a colonisation credit (Hanski 2000).”
• Consequences of forest fragmentation for polyporous fungi at two spatial scales (2006, background): “Several currently rare species may eventually go extinct in large parts of Fennoscandia they contribute to the extinction debt (Tilman et al. 1994, Hanski 2000, Hanski and Ovaskainen 2002, Berglund and Jonsson 2005) in Fennoscandian forests.”
