Spatial patterns of goose grubbing suggest elevated grubbing in dry habitats linked to early snowmelt
The western Palaearctic tundra is a breeding habitat for large populations of European geese.After their arrival in spring, pink-footed geese (Anser brachyrhynchus) forage extensively on below-ground plant parts, using a feeding technique called grubbing that has substantial impact on the tundra vegetation.Previous studies have shown a high frequen
