UPM is participating in the NorthDIVeRSITY project led by the Natural Resources Institute Finland (Luke), which is developing eDNA (Environmental DNA) tools for monitoring fish and forest species suitable for the Nordic nature. The project aims to find more effective methods for monitoring the effects of restoration, for example, by studying species distribution before and after restoration. "New methods for assessing environmental biodiversity are needed to complement traditional ones. eDNA is a promising alternative for monitoring fisheries, for example, but its performance in northern conditions needs further development," says Pauliina Louhi, Senior Researcher at Luke. One of the project's research sites is located in the Kelvänjoki river and its catchment area in Lieksa, North Karelia. Kelvänjoki flows into the Pielinen river. In the summer of 2024, the old mill dam on the Ala-Kelvänjoki river was dismantled and the rapids were restored. UPM's stream water program was one of the funders of the restoration site. Different kinds of samples were taken from the water body before the restoration started, and monitoring will continue in the coming years.
