Description:
This project examines population and community ecology in coastal tundra of the Hudson Bay lowlands. Much of our work focuses on the interplay of the region's primary herbivore, the lesser snow goose, and the region's vegetation. Recent work has expanded this to examine impacts of those interactions on other birds and mammals.
