Higher Resting Metabolism Is Associated With Increased Free Triiodothyronine Among Female Reindeer Herders in Northern Finland

Arctic tundra ecosystems under fire—Alternative ecosystem states in a changing climate?

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 5, Page 1042-1056, May 2025.
Climate change is altering the Arctic tundra, with fires driving vegetation shifts. We hypothesise that post‐fire recovery, shaped by climate change, may not return to pre‐fire conditions, leading to either increased woody vegetation or grass dominance. Photo: The Mingvk Lake fire, a lightning start, burned nearly 8500 hectares in July 2015.
