However, can we assume that sustainable simply because it emphasizes use forests as renewable resource? And will indeed lead to more – prosperous Finnish society? In light these questions, important understand relationship between forestry articulated in current forest policy documents. We ask how framed translated objectives, what ambitions are put forward when challenges problems defined, specific methods proposed, emphasis given. Our findings indicate although language used policies generally refers sustainability, various dimensions not equally considered, with economic being particularly valued. There risk continue business-as-usual if problematizations proposed solutions reflected remain unchallenged. aim provide nuanced understanding possible opportunities risks for linked currently promoted Finland elsewhere. do this by analysing meta-discourses which have been present documents time. Furthermore, identify discuss trade-offs their implications society informing future reviews increasing transparency.

Recently, the minimum number of reticulation events that is required to simultaneously embed a collection P of rooted binary phylogenetic trees into a so-called temporal network has been characterized in terms of cherry-picking sequences. Such a sequence is a particular ordering on the leaves of the trees in P. However, it is well-known that not all collections of phylogenetic trees have a cher...
متن کاملCherry-picking for complex data: robust structure discovery.
Complex data often arise as a superposition of data generated from several simpler models. The traditional strategy for such cases is to use mixture modelling, but it can be problematic, especially in higher dimensions. This paper considers an alternative approach, emphasizing data exploration and robustness to model misspecification. The strategy is applied to problems in regression, cluster a...
