Seasonal and multiannual dynamics of rodent species number under the influence of climate factors and anthropic modifications
The research was carried out in agricultural experiment stations in the central area of the Republic of Moldova during a period of 35 years. It was determined that cyclic oscillations with an interval of 3-4 years are not typical of Microtus arvalis, as can be seen in other parts of the area. Intens...

| Summary: | The research was carried out in agricultural experiment stations in the central area of the Republic of Moldova during a period of 35 years. It was determined that cyclic oscillations with an interval of 3-4 years are not typical of Microtus arvalis, as can be seen in other parts of the area. Intense anthropogenic influence determines the type of numerical dynamics. A certain periodicity is observed in the species Mus spicilegus, but during the last 30 years the dynamics has become acyclic. In the populations of the species Apodemus sylvaticus there was a more pronounced periodicity of the oscillation of the herd, once every two years. |
