- Deadwood enrichment in European forests – Which tree species should be used to promote saproxylic beetle diversity? (2016, unknown): “In other regions, such as Finland (Kouki et al., 2004), the UK (Rotheray et al., 2008) and Canada (Hammond et al., 2004) Populus is considered an important tree species for saproxylic insects, which emphasizes that the most effective tree species for saproxylic diversity conservation might differ…”
- A global view of aspen: Conservation science for widespread keystone systems (2020, background): “Ecological consequences of the forest praxis led to detailed examinations of resulting declines of aspen cover as related to lichens (Kouki et al. 2004, Hedenås and Ericson, 2003, Gjerde et al. 2012), insects (Siitonen and Martikainen 1994, Jonsell et al. 2007), birds (Edenius et al. 2011, Gjerde…”
- Manipulating ungulate herbivory in temperate and boreal forests: effects on vegetation and invertebrates. A systematic review (2018, background): “, [72]); effects on sapling abundance are thus critical, as would be their survival and growth, which we unfortunately could not examine in detail.”
- Red-listed boreal forest species of Finland : associations with forest structure, tree species, and decaying wood (2006, unknown): “For example, the age distribution of forest stands and the tree species composition of the canopy have changed and the amount of dead wood has greatly diminished (Linder & Östlund 1998, Siitonen et al. 2000, Siitonen 2001, Rouvinen et al. 2002, Kouki et al. 2004).”
- Life history strategies of aspen (Populus tremula L.) and browsing effects: a literature review (2011, background): “…surprising, therefore, that surveys of aspen demography in heavily browsed conservation areas in Finland have shown an almost absence of young aspen cohorts (5 cm < diameter at breast height ( d.b.h. ) < 15 cm), despite the more common presence of saplings ( d.b.h. < 5 cm) ( Kouki et al. , 2004 ).”
- Forest Naturalness in Northern Europe : Perspectives on Processes, Structures and Species Diversity (2011, background): “Thus, in the south boreal region, the appropriate strategies for management might be aimed to ensure temporal and spatial continuity of old deciduous trees, particularly aspen (Kouki et al. 2004).”
