Timing of population peaks of Norway lemming in relation to atmospheric pressure: A hypothesis to explain the spatial synchrony

Herbivore cycles are often synchronized over larger areas than what could be explained by dispersal. In Norway, the 3–4 year lemming cycle usually show no more than a one-year time lag between different regions, despite distances of up to 1000 km. If important food plants are forced to reallocate de...
