Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Warming summers limit reindeer grazing, weakening herbivory pressure in the mountain tundra

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Climate change is predicted to alter species interactions by exposing ecosystems to increasingly frequent and intense warm spells. In the mountain tundra, grazing by large herbivores, particularly reindeer, can limit shrub expansion and preserve Arctic plant diversity.

Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

Influence of ground substrate on establishment of reindeer lichen after artificial dispersal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Methods to improve the recovery of reindeer lichen after soil disturbance or overgrazing are being sought for areas where reindeer are herded. The effects of four substrates – mineral soil, moss, twigs and pine bark – on the establishment of lichen ...
