CONTRASTING IMPACTS OF REINDEER GRAZING IN TWO TUNDRA GRASSLANDS

Contrasting impacts of reindeer grazing in two tundra grasslands

Plant communities in Arctic and alpine areas are changing due to higher temperatures and longer vegetation periods and it is uncertain how this will affect plant-herbivore dynamics.For instance, relatively fast-growing, deciduous shrub species that are the most responsive to warming may also be the most targeted by herbivores such as reindeer, givi
