As well as these, the unit also focuses on public outreach.
They will learn how natural history collections are maintained, curated and digitised, and what kind of research questions can be answered using these collections. ): Day trip to national park Organizer: University of Turku (Biodiversity Unit) To forward-looking companies, a low-carbon operational environment and the promotion of sustainable development are a default value, and having this value is also expected from the City. The students are introduced to modern collections-based biodiversity science and to the Nagoya Protocol on Access to genetic resources with fair Benefit Sharing (ABS). We have already significantly reduced our greenhouse gas emissions, and we are capable of reaching an international forefront position with our climate work. ): Climate zones and boreal flora Closing lecture and going through what was learned during the course, closing ceremony. Venue: Archipelago Research Institute, Island of Seili (overnight trip) Venue: University campus The actions taken by the City of Turku also support the region’s other actors in practicing climate responsibility. ...

Jyrki Kauppinen's 79 research works with 3,146 citations and 7,158 reads, including: Major feedback factors and effects of the cloud cover and the relative humidity on the climate
The global effects of climate change can lead to an even larger number of climate refugees than before, and we need to be prepared for that also here in Turku. Field visit. –Carbon neutrality will not be depending on energy. ): Biodiversity of the atmosphere The region’s companies and civil society are challenged to join the climate work. Exaptive is our interactive community match-making and collective inteligence tool. The area consists mainly of bog but also includes primeval forests, some of which have been unmanaged for over 150 years. In Turku, the biggest risks are related to storms, high precipitation rates, and floods, and to a rapid ecological change. Along with the mitigation of climate change, the Turku Climate Plan includes, for the first time, climate risks analysis and adaptation to climate change. ): Introduction. Correspondence Liisa Huttunen, Section of Ecology, Department of Biology, University of Turku, FI-20014 Turku, Finland. Teachers: Ilari Sääksjärvi, Jari Hänninen, Samuli Lehtonen, Mia Lempiäinen-Avci, Katja Mäkinen, Pasi Nurmi, Sirkku Häkkilä, Anna-Mari Pessi, Otso Suominen, Elina Vainio. The objectives are challenging and require strong development work. This requires extensive innovations in especially the energy and transport systems, as well as the operations of the City, companies, and the whole civil society. Multidisciplinary research and teaching lie at the heart of the activities of the Biodiversity Unit. We proactively foster sustainability and responsibility, aiming at the sustainable future, carbon neutrality and human well-being. The impacts of both natural and human controlled herbivory on ecosystems is dealt as an example of the importance of biological interactions on the ecosystem processes under global change.
Mayor of Turku Minna Arve and City Council Chair Elina Rantanen view climate work as a significant strength of Turku.
The local (indigenous) people have traditionally had an impact on the northern ecosystems, and they are exposed to the changes in the ecosystems in their traditional livelihoods, and their knowledge of functioning of the system is valuable. The students will also be introduced to an archaeobiological project which uncovers the past biodiversity and human impact in the island of Seili during the last 500 years. The students are introduced to the study of Aerobiology and its implication in atmospheric biodiversity, species distribution and gene flow, and human health in present and future climate. ): Introduction. The impacts of climate change and mitigation measures on human health and wellbeing have received relatively little research attention in Finland. Class size: min.
Turku is an entirely climate-proof city that is able to prepare for the risks and effects efficiently. Already this year, the share of renewable energy sources is more than half, and the bar will still be raised for the upcoming years during this journey towards a world of completely renewable forms of energy. Turku is a strong location for companies that base their businesses on sustainable future solutions. Day 1 (Mon 10.8. It has been estimated that climate change is one of the world’s largest health threats in the current century. #Study in Turku | City of Turku is home to 40000 students and six higher education institutions. Upon completing the course, the participant will: Students will be evaluated based on completion of pre-assignment, course work and class participation. –It is Sitra’s mission to challenge and renew the Finnish society. And those solutions are what the world needs! Turku Summer School is a cooperation of the University of Turku, Åbo Akademi University and Turku University of Applied Sciences. We have already significantly reduced our greenhouse gas emissions, and we are capable of reaching an international forefront position with our climate work. Day 8 (Wed 19.8. Turku aims to actively create an operational environment for the future. Venue: University campus, Zoological museum & Herbarium introduction to scientific methods in archaeology, practical work on archaeobotanical material with microscopes and a small tour on the northern part of the Island, where a group work will be done. The course offers insights on the characteristics of different climate zones, from equator to the Arctic, from marine to terrestrial and aerobiological biomes. Venue: University campus It offers education to more than 20,000 students in various fields such as social sciences, health, law, economics and natural sciences and is composed of seven faculties. –Public transport will be developed to an even better direction, and the whole travel chain will be attached to it in a manner that makes mobility effortless and comfortable. The Textile ETP is the largest European network for... Lucidminds BV (LM) is an Amsterdam-based organisation consisting of... SDA is a centre for research, innovations and experiment.... Humac – Humic Acids activated for life. Venue: Ruissalo Botanical garden This objective is one the highest in the world.
You will learn how the Universe became as it is today, how the basic elements were formed and how our Solar System formed. Turku Energia and Turun Seudun Energiantuotanto Oy have participated in the preparation phase of the Climate Plan and are cooperating to build the steps towards coal-free energy. Students will familiarize themselves with the collections hold in the Zoological Museum and Herbarium of the University of Turku. The University of Turku botanic garden in the island of Ruissalo contains a collection of over 5,000 plant species / varieties and is a living display of the diversity of the plant kingdom. In practice, a carbon neutral large-capacity public transport system will support both the Climate Objective and the development of the City in a broader sense. Venue: Kurjenrahka National Park The effects of human behaviour and scenarios for the future are discussed. Discussing and defining biodiversity and climate/global change, going through learning outcomes of the course, getting to know the Biodiversity Unit of the University of Turku. Current basic research at the species level focuses on the process of species formation, the standing levels of species numbers in various higher taxonomic categories, and the phenomena of hyperdiversity and extinction proneness. We will review the current situation and future plans how to study these interesting problems. Finland. Public transport will be turned into a completely carbon neutral service. The objective of coal phase out already in 2025 and locally investing in sustainable energy production, instead, are climate actions that will benefit the whole of Finland.
