      Global warming has pronounced effects on tundra vegetation, and rising mean temperatures increase plant growth potential across the Arctic biome. Herbivores may counteract the warming impacts by reducing plant growth, but ...

      Herbivores modify the structure and function of tundra ecosystems. Understanding their impacts is necessary to assess the responses of these ecosystems to ongoing environmental changes. However, the effects of herbivores ...
    • Predator co-occurrence in alpine and Arctic tundra in relation to fluctuating prey 

      Rød-Eriksen, Lars; Killengreen, Siw Turid; Ehrich, Dorothee; Ims, Rolf Anker; Herfindal, Ivar; Landa, Arild; Eide, Nina Elisabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      1. Large carnivores influence ecosystem dynamics in multiple ways, for example, by suppressing meso-carnivores and providing carrions for smaller scavengers. Loss of large carnivores is suggested to cause meso-carnivore ...
