Collection description

Checklist of Finnish subarctic/fjell plants. The list includes the typical Finnish arctic/subarctic plants found in Northern Lapland and fjell/fjäll/fell habitats. These plants are typical of these habitats, and while many are also found widely in Finland, they form a major part of fjell vegetation as well. On the contrary, large portion of these plants show a very limited distribution in Finland, and are restricted to fjell, mountain and arctic areas. The list does not include aggregate taxa. The records include complete checklists of observer trips. Observers mark down each species or taxon they have observed. The data is presence-absence. No numeric data is included by default. (en)

Sensitive observation data have undergone obfuscation including spatial aggregation so that precise locations and other sensitive information is not publicly available. The precise location, place names, dates, names of observers and other information may have been obscured or removed. Read more about sensitive observations.

Data may have a research embargo (usually 2–4 years), during which data may have been hidden or obscured as described above. Data producer-owners may have chosen to permanently obfuscate all or part of their data.

To gain access to non-obscured data, you may make a data request. Non-obscured data is also available to Finnish authorities
