Disturbance Effects of Human Activities on Rangifer Tarandus Habitat:Implications for Life History and Population Dynamics
This paper reviews the disturbance effects of human activities on reindeer/caribou (Rangifer tarandus) habitat in arctic/subarctic ecosystems. We further discuss implications of the use of such disturbed habitat on Rangifer's life history and population dynamics, an aspect that has been overloo...
