Variation in biomass and soil carbon stocks across Pääjärvi catchment area : a landscape ecology and GIS approach

I choose to study Pääjärvi catchment area in South Finland, since different researches made at Lammi Bilogical Station are connected to my topic. I studied scientific papers from the area, especiall PRO-DOC project, collected basic data about the area and made my own research with my own approach. I used measured and online data as well meanwhile I created my own GIS maps connected to landscape ecological approach. I picked the most important landscape factors (elevation, slope, aspect, bedrock, soil, site type) and tested their correlation to each other and forest biomass and soil carbon stocks. As results I got that forest ecosystems are very complicated, each factor has impact on others, but only site type had stronger relations to every factor, especiall to both carbon stocks. But the topic requires more research
