  Interspecific interaction among sympatric ungulates is important in management and conservation. We investigated behavioral interference between sympatric wild or semidomestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) and sheep (Ovis aries) in two field studies and one enclosure experiment. For free-ranging wild and semidomestic reindeer, interference between the two species increased with decreasing distances, occurring only at less than 200 m and 30 m, for wild and semidomestic reindeer, respectively, and neither species consistently dominated the other. In a controlled, duplicated experiment we tested interference and confrontations at the feeding patch level among semidomestic reindeer and sheep within 40 × 50 m enclosures. When new reindeer or sheep were introduced into enclosures already occupied by reindeer, new reindeer resulted in significantly more interference and confrontations among individuals compared to new sheep; i.e., intraspecific interference was more prevalent than interspecific interference at equal densities. For all study areas, confrontations decreased with time after “first encounter,” indicating cohabituation. A sympatric use of pastures was not visually disruptive for recorded grazing behavior for either species.

  Because wild reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) are hunted in southern Norway, reindeer may perceive all recreationists as threats. Potential adverse effects of hunting on reindeer behavior may be exacerbated by other forms of recreation because the number of skiers and hikers in areas inhabited by reindeer has also increased. The Norefjell–Reinsjøfjell wild reindeer area is used extensively for recreation and tourism. Reindeer hunting was introduced in the area in 1992, and harvest rate has been stable at about 38% of winter herd size. We recorded behavioral responses of reindeer to a person approaching directly on foot or skis during 1992 and again in 2002–2006. Compared to 1992, flight-initiation distance increased and fewer groups assessed the observer before taking flight during 2002–2006. In winter, when reindeer are usually comparably more vigilant than in other seasons, flight-initiation distance increased from only 60 m to 115 m and escape distance decreased from 400 m to 210 m. Neither alert distance, calf carcass weights (23.6 6 0.7 [SE] kg to 22.4 6 0.2 kg), nor reindeer herd size (661 6 73 to 579 6 15) changed during the 15 years of our study. Reindeer appeared to habituate to the observer because they initiated flight at shorter distances as the number of approaches on the same day increased. In Norefjell–Reinsjøfjell, encounters with a person on foot or skis did not result in behavioral responses likely to entail substantial energy costs for reindeer; therefore, hunting at current levels appears compatible with other recreational activities.

  We conducted large-scale, replicated experiments to test the effects of two parallel power lines on area use, behaviour, and activity of semidomestic reindeer in enclosures. Yearling female reindeer were released into four 50×400?m enclosures; two treatment enclosures with power lines and two control enclosures. Reindeer from two herds, one from Kautokeino (domestic tame) and one from Vågå, (domestic wild) were tested separately and compared. Individual location within the enclosures was not affected by the power lines. Effects on restless behaviour were ambiguous, with slightly more restless behaviour in the treatment enclosures for the domestic tame reindeer, while the domestic wild reindeer maintained a stable level in the treatment enclosures, increasing with time in the control enclosures. Activity changes were slightly more common among animals within treatment enclosures for both herds, with no indication of habituation during the experiment. The domestic wild reindeer had more than three times the amount of restless behaviour than the domestic tame reindeer. Our study indicates that for reindeer in enclosures, the disturbance from a power line construction is negligible. This suggests that power lines are a minor disturbing factor compared to human handling when using fenced in areas like grazing gardens in reindeer husbandry.

  Although spore dispersal is the predominant mode of spread in fungi, the functional ecology of offspring (spore) size and shape has received little attention. We investigated the relationship between spore size (volume) and shape and various life history parameters among 303 European polypore species. In an analysis of variance, basidiocarp size, nutritional mode (parasitic vs. saprotrophic) and host (conifer vs. deciduous) accounted for a significant part of the variation in spore size. Species producing large basidiocarps also produce large spores, parasites produce larger spores than saprotrophs, and species colonizing deciduous trees generally produce larger spores than those colonizing conifers. There was a correlation between spore size and shape, with larger spores being more spherical. The most important factors accounting for variation in spore shape were rot type (white rot vs. brown rot) and nutritional mode, with white rot species and parasites having more spherical spores compared to brown rotters and saprotrophs.

  Reindeer and caribou Rangifer tarandus are reported to avoid human infrastructure such as roads, high-voltage power lines, pipelines, and tourist resorts. Lichens are important forage for reindeer during winter, and their relatively slow growth rates make them vulnerable to overgrazing. Height and volume of lichens are often used as an indicator of grazing pressure by reindeer and, thus, as an indirect measure of Rangifer avoidance of human infrastructure. We sampled lichen height in Cetraria nivalis-dominated communities along 4 and 3 parallel transects located on two parallel mountain ridges in Hardangervidda, south central Norway. The lichen measurements were analyzed in relation to altitude and the distance from four tourist cabins in the area and a highway (Rv7) running perpendicular to the 7 transects. The mountain ridge with 4 transects is part of a much used migratory corridor for wild reindeer R. tarandus tarandus. Along the nonmigratory ridge, lichen height decreased 35% over an 8-km distance from Rv7 and a tourist cabin, indicating reindeer aversion toward Rv7 and/or a tourist cabin. No similar relationship was found for the migration ridge in relation to distance from Rv7 or the tourist cabins. Our results suggest that avoidance of human infrastructure by wild reindeer might be limited where reindeer use of winter pastures is influenced by herd traditions and/or motivation to follow established migration corridors. This has important implications for addressing the use of similar pasture measurements when testing for Rangifer aversion toward human disturbances.

  Linear infrastructures such as roads, pipelines and power lines can hinder Rangifer migration and reduce the total amount of area available for foraging. We studied the barrier and aversion effect of a 66 kV power line transecting the range of wild reindeer in North Ottadalen, south central Norway using aerial surveys of reindeer distribution (direct measurement of reindeer use) and lichen measurements (indirect measurement of reindeer use) at varying distances from both sides of the power line. We present a clear definition of the expected barrier and aversion effects, and present specific hypotheses and predictions based on these two terms that are often used unclearly in the literature. The aerial surveys and ground observations showed that reindeer crossed underneath and grazed under and on both sides of the power line during 14 out of the 22 years (63.6%) surveys were conducted over the last 31 years. This behaviour was confirmed by the lichen measurements, indicating a higher use of lichen pastures along ridges close to and under the power line compared to those at increasing distances and up to 3 km from both sides of the power line. This winter grazing pattern probably reflects the topographical channeling of reindeer to the ridges along an 8 km wide topographical corridor encompassing the power line and cannot be attributed to the power line itself. We found that direct measurement data (visual observations such as ours or GPS/telemetry tracking) provide less ambiguous information for testing barrier and aversion effects than indirect measurement data (pasture/ lichen measurements) that are likely influenced by numerous uncontrollable environmental variables independent of reindeer grazing. Our results contrast with recent studies indicating strong barrier and aversion effects of similar power lines for Rangifer migration and grazing behaviour in alpine terrain. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

  I denne rapporten har vi sammenfattet 11 ulike undersøkelser som har studert mulige effekter av vindkraftanlegg og kraftledninger på reinsdyr. Effektene av tekniske inngrep og forstyrrelser generelt og effektene av vindkraftanlegg spesielt har vært studert av ulike forskningsmiljøer. Denne innsatsen har ført til at vi i dag har bedre kunnskap om effektene av slike installasjoner på reinsdyr og på reinnæring. I en del tilfeller har ulike prosjekt funnet tilsynelatende motstri-dende resultat. Vi har forsøkt å forklare de ulike resultatene fra de respektive undersøkelsene. Med dette som bakgrunn konkluderer vi med at et vindkraftanlegg alltid har potensial for å gi negative effekter på miljø og samfunn. Disse påvirkningsfaktorene er oppsummert under. På-virkningsfaktorene må ses i sammenheng og vindkraftanlegget må betraktes som en enhet hvor summen av påvirkningsfaktorene gir samlet effekt. I tillegg må annen belastning i området og de kumulative effektene som påvirker beiteområdene tas med inn i vurderingene av effektene fra et vindkraftanlegg. For å forstå de samla effektene er det viktig at man inkluderer alle årstider i undersøkelsene og at en dekker en tidshorisont som er lang nok til å fange opp miljømessig variasjon og dermed også endringer i anvendelsen av beitene på en tilstrekkelig måte. I tillegg til dette må en også ta i betraktning den menneskelige aktiviteten og inngrepene som finnes i området før et vindkraftanlegg ble etablert. Veger: Veger medfører økt ferdsel og økt tilgjengelighet. Veger fører til unnvikelse og vil være til hinder for reinsdyras naturlige bevegelser. Unntakene fra dette kan være veger som bygges i områder som allerede har mye infrastruktur eller veger som har svært lite trafikk. Stenging av veger kan være et effektivt avbøtende tiltak, men erfaringer viser at det er vanskelig å opprett-holde slike strenge regimer over tid. Kraftledninger: Effektene av kraftledninger er fortsatt uklare. Nyere studier med bruk av GPS og data som er samlet inn før og etter utbygging viser at anleggsarbeidene kan føre til relativt sterk unnvikelse, men undersøkelsene underbygger også at kraftledninger i driftsperioden om som-meren og høsten har mindre negative effekter enn tidligere antatt. Hypoteser som forklarer de tilsynelatende variable effektene av kraftledninger med reinens evne til å se i UV-spekteret bør følges opp i detaljerte undersøkelser av denne potensielle mekanismen. Dette er særlig aktuelt mht. effekter om vinteren. Vindturbiner og rotorer: Ved to av de undersøkte vindkraftanleggene i Sverige og i en ny studie fra Norge har en funnet at reinsdyr har redusert bruk at områder innenfor 3-5 km fra slike anlegg. Samtidig er det gjennomført en studie i Sverige og tre undersøkelser i Norge som ikke har do-kumentert redusert arealbruk i nærområdet til vindkraftanlegg. Vi diskuterer årsaken til dette og gir forklaringer på de avvikende resultatene. Disse avvikene skyldes både topografi, beiteforhold, nærhet til annen infrastruktur og design/gjennomføring av de ulike undersøkelsene. For å styrke kunnskapen om effekter av vindkraftanlegg på reinsdyr er det behov for langsiktige studier. Disse bør ta hensyn til samla effekter av vindkraftanlegg og se på betydningen av den samla belast-ningen innen reinbeiteområdet. Undersøkelsene bør være langsiktige (pågå over flere år) for å gi en forståelse av hvordan mellomårsvariasjonen påvirker arealbruk og andre faktorer. Slike framtidige effektstudier bør også inkludere samfunnsfaglige studier og integrere lokal og kulturell kunnskap.
