Occurrence patterns of L. pulmonaria and its host trees (aspen and goat willow), together with 400-year fire history data, Teerisuo-Lososuo, Finland
This data archive contains data used in the study by Fabritius et al. (2019): Estimation of metapopulation colonization rates from disturbance history and occurrence pattern data, Ecology. All data have been previously used also in other studies (Gu et al. 2001, Snäll et al. 2005, Lankia et al. 2012, Ronnås et al. 2017). The data include two-time-point occurrence pattern data of an endangered lichen L. pulmonaria, empirical snapshot data on aspen (P. tremula) and goat willow (S. caprea) counts, and 400-year data of forest fires. All data have been collected in the Teerisuo-Lososuo nature reserve, Kuhmo, Finland (2 086 ha; 63°88'N, 29°18'E) and projected in the Finnish YKJ projection. Ilkka Hanski initiated the surveys in the late 1990’s and Gergely Várkonyi, Matti Komulainen, Jari Huotari, Pirjo Appelgren and Mikko Heikura assisted with field work. The data include two-time-point occurrence pattern data of an endangered lichen L. pulmonaria, empirical snapshot data on aspen (P. tremula) and goat willow (S. caprea) counts, and 400-year data of forest fires. All data have been collected in the Teerisuo-Lososuo nature reserve, Kuhmo, Finland (2 086 ha; 63°88'N, 29°18'E) and projected in the Finnish YKJ projection, EPSG:2393.

Flora and/or fauna in natural environment.
Environmental resources, protection and conservation.
Calculation method that describes a system or process related to fire development, including fire dynamics and the effects of fire.
Land cover is the physical state of the land surface. It is the combination of vegetation, soil, rock, water and human-made structures, which make up the earth's landscape. The land cover is the interface between the earth's crust and the atmosphere, influencing the exchange of energy and matter in the climatic system and biogeochemical cycles.
Areas of relatively homogeneous ecological conditions with common characteristics.
Geographical areas characterised by specific ecological conditions, processes, structure, and (life support) functions that physically support the organisms that live there. Includes terrestrial and aquatic areas distinguished by geographical, abiotic and biotic features, whether entirely natural or semi-natural.
