Mapping interactions between winter recreationists and an endangered ungulate

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Southern mountain caribou are a federally designated species at risk, with declines occurring throughout their range. This species overlaps spatially and temporally in their late‐winter habitats with heli‐skiing, an activity that relies on helicopters to transport skiers to remote mountainous locales.

Out of sight of wind turbines—Reindeer response to wind farms in operation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2018
To meet the expanding land use required for wind energy development, a better understanding of the effects on terrestrial animals’ responses to such development is required. Using GPS‐data from 50 freely ranging female reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) in the

Reindeer Husbandry in Kuusamo

open access: yesRangifer, 1999
The author is a reindeer owner and gives his impression about the situation of reindeer husbandry in an eastern reindeer area in Finland. Mmajor problems emerge: the growth of the predator populations, the grazing quality and the loss of pasture land to other activities (agriculture, forestry, tourism).

Circular 86 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Reindeer in western Alaska have been described as a free-ranging, semi-domesticated animal. Herd management is minimal and animals are less tractable when compared to domestic livestock.

Continental‐scale seston stoichiometry reveals fundamental constraints on the elemental composition of particles transported by streams

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Suspended particulate matter, or seston, represents an understudied flux of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) in river networks. Here, we summarize riverine seston C : N : P stoichiometry data from 27 streams and rivers sampled regularly from 2014 to 2022 across the United States by the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON).

Participatory topological mapping: A novel approach for exploring and communicating situated knowledge of complex socio-ecological systems

open access: yesMethodological Innovations
Land use change impacts on Sámi reindeer husbandry are well-documented, but existing maps often fail to capture socio-ecological relationships between herders, reindeer and nature.

Origins of Chinese reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) based on mitochondrial DNA analyses.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The most southern population of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) inhabits northeastern China, but the migration route and origin of this population have not been confirmed.

A High-Throughput Ancient DNA Extraction Method for Large-Scale Sample Screening. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Large‐scale DNA screening of palaeontological and archaeological collections remains a limiting and costly factor for ancient DNA studies. Several DNA extraction protocols are routinely used in ancient DNA laboratories and have even been automated on robotic platforms.

Genome sequence and comparative analysis of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) in northern Eurasia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Reindeer are semi-domesticated ruminants that have adapted to the challenging northern Eurasian environment characterized by long winters and marked annual fluctuations in daylight. We explored the genetic makeup behind their unique characteristics by de

Population dynamics of reindeer

open access: yesRangifer, 1990
Five types of reindeer populations are distinguished in terms of population dynamics, population density, social structure and migration distance. Differences in the biological rhythms of the populations result in calving occuring 20 days before snow melting in all populations as well as maximal utilization by the deer of young green vegetation in ...
