M. Elbakidze et al. 2010. Does forest certification contribute to boreal biodiversity conservation<br />

556<br />

Russian case study had the potential to host viable populations also of the most area-dem<strong>and</strong>ing<br />

focal species.<br />

To conclude, biologically relevant analyses are needed to assess functionality of set-asides for<br />

biodiversity conservation. We conclude that the potential of FSC for biodiversity conservation<br />

is dependent both on the amount of formal protection, the spatial configuration of forest<br />

management units, <strong>and</strong> the functionality <strong>and</strong> renewal of habitat networks.<br />
