BIOTIC
CONDITIONS
|
| Rodents abundance evaluation: |
low
|
|
|
Breeding conditions:
|
| Very poor, as very little vegetation and the large fjord seldom is ice-free, even during August. The Citronen Fjord is often ice-free late July and August - perhaps little in September. Delta silty/gravel and little vegetation.

|
|
Rodent dynamics:
|
| May be a little more abundant mid May than late in July -August (pers.comm. from mining company).
