We present a comprehensive overview of lemming monitoring and research activities, and assess recent trends ... -
Effects of resource availability and interspecific interactions on Arctic and red foxes' winter use of ungulate carrion in the Fennoscandian low-Arctic tundra
Lacombe, Simon; Ims, Rolf Anker; Yoccoz, Nigel Gilles; Kleiven, Eivind Flittie; Antunes Lopes Da Silva Nicolau, Pedro Guilherme; Ehrich, Dorothee (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In the Arctic tundra, predators face recurrent periods of food scarcity and often turnto ungulate carcasses as an alternative food source. As important and localized re-source patches, carrion promotes co-occurrence of ... -
