Anthropogenic warming is predicted to alter ecological boundaries in energy-limited shrub
ecosystems. Yet we still lack a sound understanding of the structural changes that shrub …

One of the most palpable effects of warming in Arctic ecosystems is shrub expansion above
the tree line. However, previous studies have found that reindeer can influence plant …

There are increasing concerns about regional ecosystem shifts in the Arctic due to climate
change. Notably, warming-induced increases in Arctic vegetation cover can have important …

Poleward shifts in species distributions are expected and frequently observed with a
warming climate. In Arctic ecosystems, the strong warming trends are associated with …

Ungulates influence ecosystem services in important ways, including by altering the amount
of standing plant biomass and species composition. Browsing, for example, removes …

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

The Fennoscandian boreal and mountain regions harbour a wide range of vegetation types,
from boreal forest to high alpine tundra and barren soils. The area is facing a rise in air …

Abstract ̶ In this paper, I review questions about the 5 Ws ̶ Who, What, When, Where, and
Why ̶ of mammal trapping that I judge significant to better understand the pros and cons of …

Temperatures over the Arctic region are increasing at three times the rate of the global
average. Consequently, Arctic vegetation is changing and trees are encroaching into the …

Ungulate browsing often impairs tree regeneration, thus preventing the achievement of
economic or conservation goals. Forest ungulate management would thus benefit from a …
