Results from the monitoring of veterinary medicinal product residues and other substances in live animals and animal products - Finland

<p>This dataset contains the monitoring results of veterinary medicinal product residues and other substances measured in live animals and animal products analysed by the national competent authority of Finland. The presence of unauthorised substances, residues of veterinary medicinal products in food may pose a risk factor for public health.</p> <p>For this reason and in order to ensure a high level of consumer protection, a comprehensive legislative framework has been established in the European Union (EU) which defines maximum limits permitted in food and monitoring programmes for the control of the presence of these substances in the food chain. Regulation (EU) No 37/2010 establishes maximum limits for residues of veterinary medicinal products in food-producing animals and animal products. Maximum residue levels for pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin are laid down in Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. &nbsp;Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/1646 lays down practical arrangements for and specific content of official controls of the use of veterinary medicinal products in live animals and products of animal origin through three different official national control plans: a national risk-based control plan for production in the Member States, a national randomised surveillance plan for production in the Member States and a national risk-based control plan for third-country imports. Additionally, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/1644 lays down the range of samples and stage of production, processing and distribution at which the samples are to be taken.</p> <p>Since 2018 until 2022, the data on the national residue monitoring plan were reported to EFSA in accordance with Council Directive 96/23/EC.</p> <p>The dataset contains the results of laboratory tests from samples taken from bovines, pigs, sheep, goats, horses, poultry, rabbits, farmed game, wild game aquaculture, milk, eggs and honey, and from 2023 also samples from casings, insects and reptiles.</p> <p>Targeted samples are taken with the aim of detecting illegal treatment or controlling compliance with the maximum levels laid down in the relevant legislation. This means that, in their national plans Member States target the groups of animals (species, gender, age) where the probability of finding residues is the highest. Conversely, the objective of random sampling is to collect significant data to evaluate, for example, consumer exposure to a specific substance.</p> <p>Suspect samples are taken as a consequence of i) non-compliant results on samples taken in accordance with the control plans, ii) possession or presence of prohibited substances at any point during manufacture, storage, distribution or sale through the food and feed production chain, or iii) suspicion or evidence of illegal treatment or non-compliance with the withdrawal period for an authorised medicinal veterinary product.</p> <p>Residues of pharmacologically active substances mean active substances, excipients or degradation products and their metabolites, which remain in food.</p> <p>Unauthorised substances mean substances that are not authorised as veterinary medicinal products or as a feed additive under European Union legislation.</p> <p>Prohibited substances mean substances which are prohibited for use in food producing animals according to the European Union legislation.</p> <p>Non-compliant sample is a sample that has been analysed for the presence of one or more substances and failed to comply with the legal provisions for at least one substance. Thus, a sample can be non-compliant for one or more substances.</p> <p><strong>REPORTING AUTHORITIES CONTRIBUTING TO EACH DATA COLLECTION:</strong></p> <p>VMPR_2023 &ndash; Finnish Food Authority</p> <p>VMPR_2022 &ndash; Finnish Food Authority</p> <p>VMPR_2021 &ndash; Finnish Food Authority</p> <p>VMPR_2020&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;Finnish Food Authority</p> <p>VMPR_2019&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;Finnish Food Authority</p> <p>VMPR_2018 &ndash;&nbsp;Finnish Food Authority</p> <p>VMPR_2017&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;Finnish Food Authority</p>

Long-term litter fall data series from 34 boreal forest stands in Finland

<p><strong>Introduction</strong></p> <p>Litter fall data were collected on a network of 34 forest sampling plots in Finland from late 1950s to 2010s. The data collection spanned different time periods in different sampling plots. The data have been used for studies on the flowering and seed crop of forest trees, air quality, and insect damage (see list of publications in the end of this document). They have been used to develop seed production and needle litter fall models for Scots pine (<em>Pinus sylvestris</em>) and Norway spruce (<em>Picea abies</em>), a branch litter model for pine, and total litter fall models used in greenhouse gas inventories.</p> <p><strong>Data collection</strong></p> <p>The litter fall collection was set up in mature, single species stands. The focal tree species include Scots pine (<em>Pinus sylvestris</em>), Norway spruce (<em>Picea abies</em>), Silver birch (<em>Betula pendula</em>), Downy birch (<em>Betula pubescens</em>), Grey alder (<em>Alnus</em>&nbsp;<em>incana</em>), European rowan (<em>Sorbus aucuparia</em>), European larch (<em>Larix decidua</em>), and Siberian larch (<em>Larix sibirica</em>). The sampling plots varied in shape and in size with a typical area of 0.1-0.25 ha. Between 6 and 30 litter collecting funnels were used per plot. The funnels were made of galvanized sheet metal and attached to cloth bags to collect the falling litter. The sampling sites were monitored for changes in conditions, such as natural disturbances, tree harvesting, forestry operations, or construction on the plot or in its immediate proximity (none observed).</p> <p>The litter samples were collected from the sampling plots, usually four to six times per year in spring to autumn. The samples were dried in room temperature (except male flowers in 1960s &ndash; 1970s, see note in Table 1) and stored in paper bags. The dried samples were sorted into litter fractions (Table 1). These fractions varied between tree species and between years to some extent. Cones and seeds were counted, and all other litter fractions were weighed to the nearest milligram.</p> <table> <caption>Table 1. Litter fractions and their codes. The code of the litter fraction is used in the data files.</caption> <thead> <tr> <th scope="col">Code</th> <th scope="col">Litter fraction</th> <th scope="col">Description / note</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1</td> <td>Male flowers</td> <td>In the 1960s &ndash; 1970s male flowers were dried in 105&deg;C for 24 hours (Sarvas 1962, 1968).</td> </tr> <tr> <td>2</td> <td>Seeds</td> <td>Seed wings and seeds from species other than the focal one were included into the &ldquo;other litter&rdquo; fraction.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>3</td> <td>Female flowers</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td>4</td> <td>Needles</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td>5</td> <td>Insects and their faeces</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td>6</td> <td>Other litter</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td>7</td> <td>Lichens, branches, and tree bark</td> <td>In some years lichens, branches, and bark were combined in the same fraction, and in some they were separated in their own fractions (numbers 12-14 below).</td> </tr> <tr> <td>8</td> <td>Small cones (1 year)</td> <td>For pine stands, cones were separated into one-year old small cones and large cones.

In the tree stand inventories, all trees in the sampling plot with diameter at breast height &ge; 7 cm were mapped, and all trees were counted and measured for diameter (at breast height and at 6 meters), total height, and height to first living branches. Stand basal area and dominant diameter and height were calculated. Stand age was estimated based on core samples from five trees outside but representative of the sample plot. Crown coverage was estimated with a Cajanus tube.</p> <p><strong>Description of the data files</strong></p> <p>The litter fall data is in eight csv-files, one per tree species. The files are named &ldquo;Litter_Tree_species.csv&rdquo;, for example &ldquo;Litter_Betula_pendula.csv&rdquo;.</p> <p>Variables (in columns) are consistent across the files (explained in Table 2), but note that there are varying numbers of columns between the tables in the files, as each litter collecting funnel has its own column and different maximum numbers of funnels were used in different sampling sites and tree species (see row &ldquo;S1 &ndash; S30&rdquo; in Table 2 for more details).</p> <table> <caption>Table 2.

In addition, focus should be put on ecological communities that enable resilient and diverse ecosystem functioning.</p> <p>The aim of this questionnaire was to determine how different urban biotopes support different biodiversity quality attributes of ecological communities of different higher taxonomic groups. Together these attributes describe biotopes&rsquo; support for sustainable urban ecosystem functioning and, thus, indirectly for ecosystem services provisioning. The results can be used to better preserve ecological values in urban planning and as a basis for comprehensive urban biodiversity conservation. The questionnaire focused on biotopes found in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area (HMA; municipal cities of Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa, and Kauniainen), Southern Finland. In addition, the applicability of the scoring elsewhere in Finnish cities was evaluated.</p> <p>The questionnaire is described in Terra (Jalkanen &amp; Vierikko 2022; in Finnish with English abstract) and in Jalkanen et al. (2020).</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong></p> <p><em>Scoring of urban biotopes</em></p> <p>The data was collected using an online questionnaire during 5.10.-21.11.2016. It was sent to 38 local taxonomic experts (from Finnish Museum of Natural History, University of Helsinki, Finnish Environment Institute, environmental consultant firms, and local environmental NGOs), out of which 24 replied.</p> <p>Experts who participated were (their taxon):</p> <ul> <li>Heidi Bj&ouml;rklund (Birds)</li> <li>Tea von Bonsdorff (Fungi, other than polypores)</li> <li>Eero Haapanen (Mammals, other than bats)</li> <li>Nina Hagner-Wahlsten (Bats)</li> <li>Jari Kaitila (Butterflies)</li> <li>Jarkko Korhonen (Fungi, other than polypores)</li> <li>Jaakko Kullberg (Butterflies)</li> <li>Eeva-Maria Kyher&ouml;inen (Bats)</li> <li>Esa Lammi (Vascular plants)</li> <li>Riku Lumiaro (Mammals, other than bats)</li> <li>Sampsa Malmberg (Beetles)</li> <li>Ilpo Mannerkoski (Beetles)</li> <li>Olli Manninen (Polypores)</li> <li>Heikka Marttila-Tornio (Herpetofauna)</li> <li>Juho Paukkunen (Hymenoptera)</li> <li>Terhi Rytt&auml;ri (Vascular Plants)</li> <li>Jarmo Saarikivi (Herpetofauna)</li> <li>Hannu Sarvanne (Birds)</li> <li>Keijo Savola (Polypores)</li> <li>Ilkka Ter&auml;s (Hymenoptera)</li> <li>Stephen Venn (Beetles)</li> <li>Tarmo Virtanen (Butterflies)</li> <li>Terhi Wermundsen (Bats)</li> <li>Rauno Yrj&ouml;l&auml; (Birds)</li> </ul> <p>In the questionnaire, the experts scored 68 local urban biotopes in terms of how well they support different biodiversity attributes of their taxonomic group. Each biotope was scored separately for every attribute. Scores were given on a 5-rank scale (0&ndash;4; 0 being the lowest). Experts were advised to consider all seasons (e.g., to consider the importance of the biotope also for wintering). We used the biotope classification from the expert questionnaire by Vierikko et al. (2014) with the following modifications:</p> <ul> <li>Forest biotopes were further divided into two age classes (30-100 y. and over 100 y.)</li> <li>Yards were further divided into sealed and bare yards</li> <li>Densely-built residential gardens &amp; townhouse gardens were added as a new biotope</li> <li>Outcrops, ledges, and rocky grounds were combined to one biotope (bare rocks)</li> <li>Beaches, canals, and terraced embankments were combined to one biotope (artificial shores)</li> <li>Stone walls and bird-colonized islets were excluded</li> <li>Green walls were added as a new biotope</li> </ul> <p>The relevance of biotopes was evaluated for the following Biodiversity Quality attributes that describe or relate to the diversity of urban ecological communities:</p> <ol> <li>Species richness</li> <li>Habitat specialist species</li> <li>Biomass</li> <li>Abundance</li> <li>Evenness</li> <li>Uniqueness</li> <li>Regional representativeness</li> <li>Sensitivity towards anthropogenic disturbance</li> <li>Connectivity</li> </ol> <p>In addition, experts gave overall self-evaluated confidence rates for their answers concerning each attribute. In the data, biotopes&rsquo; scores are weighted by an increasing confidence coefficient in order to emphasize confident answers over non-confident ones. Confidence coefficients are 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8 that refer to &lsquo;very unconfident&rsquo;, &lsquo;unconfident&rsquo;, &lsquo;somewhat unconfident&rsquo;, &lsquo;somewhat confident&rsquo;, and &lsquo;very confident&rsquo; answers, respectively.</p> <p><em>Applicability of the urban biotope scores elsewhere in Finland</em></p> <p>After the questionnaire, experts assessed how applicable their answers are elsewhere in Finland. This task was done in an expert workshop on 29.11.2016. The exact question, given to the experts, was:</p> <p><em>This questionnaire is designed from Southern Finnish, and especially from the Helsinki Metropolitan area (cities of Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa, Kauniainen) perspective. How well do the questionnaire results describe the species assemblages of your taxon found in cities in other Finnish provinces? Answer on a scale of 0-10 (0: the results of this questionnaire are completely inapplicable to the cities in the given province, 10: the results of the questionnaire apply very well to the urban nature of the given province). Also evaluate the confidence of your answers at the scale of 0-3 (0: very unconfident, 3: very confident). <strong>Answer from the point of view of your own taxon.</strong></em></p> <p>In the data, the expert answers are reported as they were given, i.e., confident answers are not emphasized over non-confident ones like with biotope scores.</p> <p><strong>Data:</strong></p> <p>Data is provided in Finnish (files starting with &lsquo;FIN&rsquo;) and in English (&lsquo;ENG&rsquo;). This data set includes:</p> <ul> <li>Biodiversity Quality attribute descriptions and scoring instructions (.pdf)</li> <li>Urban biotope descriptions (.pdf)</li> <li>Table of urban biotope scores (.xlsx)</li> <li>Table of the applicability of biotope scores elsewhere in Finland (.xlsx)</li> </ul> <p>In the tables, the Arabic number after the attribute or taxon name refers to the corresponding expert (i.e., under birds (&lsquo;Richness 1&rsquo; and &lsquo;Specialist species 1&rsquo; refer to the answers of the same bird expert). Experts&rsquo; answers are listed in random order. All experts have agreed on publication of their answers and names using written informed consent.</p> <p><strong>URBAN BIOTOPE MAP</strong></p> <p>The folder &rsquo;ENG_UrbanBiotopeMap&rsquo; includes a raster-type GIS layer of urban biotopes in the Helsinki Metropolitan area. The map has been compiled from several GIS sources (see Jalkanen et al. 2020). The urban biotope map allows for example spatial analyses of biodiversity values together with the expert questionnaire results. OBS! The map is not meant for planning purposes.

ENERGISE Living Lab country report - Finland

<p>ENERGISE Living Labs (ELLs) employ practice-based approaches to reduce energy use in households while co-creating knowledge on why energy-intensive practices are performed and how they depend on the context in which they are performed. Altogether 16 living labs were implemented in eight European countries in 2018.</p> <p>The Finnish ELLs were implemented in two different sites. ELL1 for individual households took place in a Porvoo region, about 50 kilometres from Helsinki and engaged 19 households living mainly in single-family homes. ELL2 (with collective elements) was implemented in Merihaka, urban district close to Helsinki city centre, and 18 households living in apartment buildings in Merihaka joined the ELL challenges and community activities.</p>
