Mast Pulses Shape Trophic Interactions between Fluctuating Rodent Populations in a Primeval Forest

How different functional responses of consumers exploiting pulsed resources affect community dynamics is an ongoing question in ecology. Tree masting is a common resource pulse in terrestrial ecosystems that can drive rodent population cycles. Using stable isotope (δ(13)C, δ(15)N) analyses, we inves...
