Burn Terrestrial Data
Abstract
Rebecca Rowe, 2021 Small mammal captures per 100 trap nights at the 2007 Anaktuvuk River fire scar and nearby unburned site, sampled in 2014, 2017-2019.. 10.6073/pasta/bf951abfd3b0c3c2946b411a2a2d93aa
Small mammals (rodents and shrews) were sampled 7-12 years following the Anaktuvuk River Fire to examine how post-fire ecological changes influence small mammal abundance. Small mammals were snap-trapped in August 2014, 2017-2019 at the site of the 2007 Anaktuvuk River Fire, and a nearby unburned control site. At each site, 120 traps were set in 3 parallel lines spaced 40m apart. Each trap was spaced 10m apart, baited, and set to rodent sign within one meter of the trap station. Traps were checked the following two mornings with all captures collected and sprung traps reset.
