We conducted a field experiment in which small mammal density was manipulated at three replicate sites near Toolik Lake, Alaska. The motivation for collecting this pointframe dataset was to understand and quantify the impact of the most abundant herbivores, small rodents (voles and lemmings) on tuss...
