Dynamics of Enchytraeidae Populations on Hardangervidda

  • Chapter
Fennoscandian Tundra Ecosystems

Part of the book series: Ecological Studies ((ECOLSTUD,volume 17))

The dynamics of two Enchytraeidae populations at Stigstuv were studied over a period of 3 years. The sites selected were the dry and wet meadow (Sonesson et al., 1975). For various reasons, the group had to be mostly treated collectively during this investigation.
