This study examines the precision of spatial data required for archaeological sites in Finland from a forest management perspective, identifies at risk due to forestry activities, and investigates potential collaboration between archaeology enhance preservation understanding these sites. Due outdated methods lack systematic field surveys, challenges achieving accurate are highlighted through literature review, case studies, fieldwork. Our findings indicate that significant portion boundary delineation, exposing them destruction. Moreover, reveals limited sectors, despite mutual interests site preservation. We advocate improved accuracy using modern technological like GPS enhanced cooperation archaeologists professionals. approach aims protect Finland’s heritage while promoting responsible practices. Notably, fieldwork enabled precise determination location first separate plague cemetery, underscoring value direct verification enriching historical understanding.

Simulation models are important tools to study the impacts of climate change and natural disturbances on forest ecosystems. Being able track tree demographic processes in a spatially explicit manner, process-based landscape considered most suitable provide robust projections that can aid decision-making management. However, challenging parameterize setting up new areas for application studies largely depends data availability. The aim this is demonstrate parameterization process, including model testing evaluation, area Italian Alps using available data. We processed soil, climate, carbon pools, vegetation, management data, ran iterative spin-up simulations generate virtual best resembling current conditions. Our results demonstrated feasibility initializing with typically from plans national inventories, as well openly mapping products. Evaluation tests proved ability capture environmental constraints driving regeneration dynamics inter-specific competition forests Alps, simulate dynamics. subsequently be applied investigate development under suite future scenarios recommendations adapting decisions.
