Long- and short-term effects of reindeer grazing on tundra wetland vegetation (2009, methodology): “Many studies have shown that the amount of willows decreases under prolonged grazing pressure by Rangifer spp. (Thing 1984; Manseau et al. 1996; Crête et al. 2001; Olofsson et al. 2001; den Herder et al. 2004).”
The effects of reindeer grazing on the composition and species richness of vegetation in forest–tundra ecotone (2008, methodology): “Prior to setting up the exclosures, both willow genets from every second exclosure–control plot pair in the frost heath and riparian area and all the willow genets in the tundra heath were cut at ca. 2 cm above the ground for the purposes of earlier studies by den Herder et al. (2004, 2008).”
