Reality as the leading cause of stress: rethinking the impact of chronic stress in nature (2013, unknown): “…explanations (i.e. high density at the peak phase leading to social competition or to lack of overwintering food or declining nutrition) are not tenable (see evidence from factorial experiments and arguments in Krebs et al. 1995, 2001b; Boonstra et al. 1998a; Hodges, Krebs & Boonstra 2006).”
The effects of fertilization and herbivory on the herbaceous vegetation of the boreal forest in north‐western Canada: a 10‐year study (2002, background): “Moderate browsing by snowshoe hares stimulates growth of Salix and Betula, but during peak years herbivore pressure on shrubs, especially Betula, is intense (Dale et al. 2001; Krebs et al. 2001b).”
The science and application of ecological monitoring (2010, background): “Detecting and evaluating changes in ecosystem structure and function (Krebs et al., 2001; Danell et al., 2006).”
How to make a common species rare: A case against conservation complacency (2011, background): “They may be: – Eruptive or cyclical and hence periodically common (e.g. Krebs et al., 2001; Robin et al., 2009).”
Why are Arctic ground squirrels more stressed in the boreal forest than in alpine meadows? (2001, background): “%) and aspen poplar stands (Populus tremuloides) (5%), based on airphoto analysis (Krebs et al., 2001).”
Life histories of female red squirrels and their contributions to population growth and lifetime fitness (2007, background): “See Krebs, Boutin, and Boonstra (2001) for a more detailed description of the general study area. trappINg aNd haNdlINg Squirrels were monitored annually from March to August.”
What Drives the 10-year Cycle of Snowshoe Hares? (2001, background): “Consumption increased markedly during the peak (Smith et al. 1988, Hik 1995, Krebs et al. 2001), with 80% to 90% of the available bog birch being consumed.”
Spruce beetles and forest ecosystems in south-central alaska : A review of 30 years of research (2006, unknown): “…beetles (Murphy and Lehnhausen, 1998), appeared to increase briefly in numbers during outbreaks (Yeager and Riordan, 1953; Lance and Howell, 2000; Smith and Folkard, 2001), but likely decreased quickly in abundance as infestations abated and beetle larvae became scarce (Murphy and Lehnhausen,…”
