Parasite infections in a social carnivore: Evidence of their fitness consequences and factors modulating infection load [PDF]
There are substantial individual differences in parasite composition and infection load in wildlife populations. Few studies have investigated the factors shaping this heterogeneity in large wild mammals or the impact of parasite infections on Darwinian ...

Waterlogging of soil induces diverging rates of senescence in Svalbard reindeer forage plants
As climate change is unfolding faster in the Arctic than in any other biome, thermal and hydrological changes are predicted to reshape Arctic ecosystems. Water availability is expected to affect the end of the plant growth season, a time period essential

Exploring 4200 years of mercury variation in the antlers of High-Arctic wild reindeer
Anthropogenic mercury (Hg) emissions and climate change are altering the global cycle of Hg. Levels of Hg in natural archives can help us understand not only its historical trends but also the future changes in different ecosystems, including the Arctic.

Effects of repeated captures on Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhyunchus) : implications for animal welfare and scientific bias [PDF]
Capturing and marking animals is an essential component of wildlife research. However, data gathered using invasive methods may lead to scientific bias and compromise animal welfare.

Individual variation in movement ecology affect body mass in Svalbard reindeer [PDF]
Herbivore foraging is a complex interaction mainly driven by the distribution of forage in the landscape. The forage quantity and quality in the habitat influences the establishment of home ranges and diet selection from patches down to fine scale ...

Greater biomass from Arctic greening absorbs increased grazing pressure from a large herbivore
Arctic warming is causing widespread “greening” of tundra ecosystems. What this means for plant–herbivore relations, including the grazing pressure herbivores exert on increasingly productive tundra ecosystems, is poorly understood.
