Long-Lasting Ecological Legacies of Reindeer on Tundra Vegetation

In the absence of predators, voles damaged both preferred food plants (bilberry) and strongly defended plants (crowberry). In the presence of predators, however.. voles decreased

Similar to our study on HMGs, Sitters and others (2017) found that grazing increased mineral nutrient availability and decreased soil C:N ratio in nutri- ent-poor heath (exposed

Methods: We used a field experiment over six summers to study the separate and interacting effects of reindeer trampling, defoliation, addition of faeces and removal of moss on

After studying the contemporary habitat use of HMGs by reindeer and other herbivores, investigating the potential plant-soil feedbacks mechanisms and detailed soil analyses,

We have recently presented results from an experimental wetland area where we show that nitrogen retention during the first three years after construction was higher in

adaptability: analysing the governance of reindeer husbandry in Sweden. Umeå: Umeå University 7 Some studies have applied concepts that share some of the rudiments of resilience,

Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus L.) management, undertaken by indigenous Sámi people, depend upon extensive winter grazing grounds with abundant reindeer lichen cover.

The informants also knew those plants by name, which were common in their own rein- deer herding community (Hultén, 1971), like Oxyria digyna in the mountain reindeer herd-
