As part of the TUNDRAsalad project and as a follow up on the HN work on the systematic map of herbivore studies in the Arctic, we conducted a systematic review to synthesize the effects of herbivore diversity on tundra ecosystem functioning. We first published a protocol for conducting the systematic review that we then used to actually do the review.
The project was coordinated by Laura Barbero Palacios.
