Effects of patch size, isolation, and habitat characteristics on small mammal community structure in the Grand Sable Dunes of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Malick SL. 2011. Effects of patch size, isolation, and habitat characteristics on small mammal community structure in the Grand Sable Dunes of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. Northern Michigan University
Small mammals and their habitats on Grand Sable Dunes at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore were examined through the concepts of island biogeography. The influence of non-native spotted knapweed on small mammal diversity and abundance was also examined.
