- Shrub expansion in tundra ecosystems: dynamics, impacts and research priorities (2011, background): “Wild herbivores can migrate over large areas and exhibit cyclic population dynamics; therefore the influence of herbivory on shrub populations will likely change over time and space [5].”
- Carbon balance of Arctic tundra under increased snow cover mediated by a plant pathogen (2011, neutral): “, and indirectly by affecting predators and herbivores, which in turn influence plant”
- The terrestrial and freshwater invertebrate biodiversity of the archipelagoes of the Barents Sea; Svalbard, Franz Josef Land and Novaya Zemlya (2014, background): “Polar (Arctic and Antarctic) ecosystems are considered to be particularly valuable for studies addressing such fundamental questions of ecosystem function, providing examples across a wide range of levels of assemblage structure (Hodkinson et al., 2003, 2004; Adams et al., 2006; Post et al., 2009).”
- Ice-age megafauna in Arctic Alaska: extinction, invasion, survival (2013, background): “…during prehistoric times in the Arctic is consistent with the dynamics of caribou and muskox populations in historical times when extreme weather events and climate changes have caused local and even regional extirpations (Klein, 1991; Forchhammer and Boertmann, 1993; Post et al., 2009).”
- Storage, patterns, and control of soil organic carbon and nitrogen in the northeastern margin of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau (2012, result): “Our results agree well with those published by Jobbágy and Jackson (2000) and Post et al (1982), showing that SOC density generally increases with increasing precipitation and decreasing temperature. Interestingly, we found high correlations of SOC with climatic factors in the top 0–20 cm, diminishi”
- Large herbivores limit CO2 uptake and suppress carbon cycle responses to warming in West Greenland (2011, background): “Arctic terrestrial ecosystems have undergone substan- tial structural and functional changes in recent decades, in response to directional shifts in abiotic (Chapin et al., 1995; Clein et al., 2000; Wookey et al., 2009) and biotic drivers (Post & Pedersen, 2008; Post et al., 2009).”
- Arctic biodiversity assessment : status and trends in arctic biodiversity (2013, background): “…together with highly variable climatic conditions, makes them prone to strong food web interactions (for instance leading to community-wide cycles) and environmentally driven fluctuations with cascading effects through entire ecosystems (Post et al. 2009, Gilg et al. 2012, Hansen et al. 2013).”
- Statistical Forecasting of Current and Future Circum‐Arctic Ground Temperatures and Active Layer Thickness (2018, background): “These anticipated changes are likely to affect the functioning of Arctic ecosystems through changes in ground ice, hydrology, and nutrient cycling (Fountain et al., 2012; Liljedahl et al., 2016; Post et al., 2009).”
- Carnivore conservation in practice: replicated management actions on a large spatial scale (2013, background): “…adapted to Arctic conditions, and climate-induced changes, such as invasion of boreal species from the south, can have profound effects on species’ ecology and evolution (Post et al. 2009; Callaghan et al. 2011) with cascading consequences on both herbivores and predators (Ims & Fuglei 2005).”
- The Tundra Food Web of Bylot Island in a Changing Climate and the Role of Exchanges between Ecosystems (2011, background): “This has considerable impacts on both physical and biological systems, including retreat of the sea ice (Kerr, 2007), shortening of the snow season (Post et al., 2009), warming and thawing of the permafrost (Smith, et al., 2010), and “greening up” of the Arctic (Sturm, Racine & Tape, 2001; Tape,…”
