“…Reduced food intake, caused by phenological mismatch with plants or increased time spent avoiding insect harassment, can decrease calf production and increase calf mortality [27]. Severe insect harassment, including direct loss of blood [43,44], is considered a critical factor affecting reindeer and caribou population ecology [45] that is in need of greater research, particularly as it relates to climate change [46,47].…”

Climate change is altering environmental temperature, a factor that influences ectothermic organisms by controlling rates of physiological processes. Demographic effects of warming, however, are determined by the expression of these physiological effects through predator -prey and other species interactions. Using field observations and controlled experiments, we measured how increasing temperatures in the Arctic affected development rates and mortality rates (from predation) of immature Arctic mosquitoes in western Greenland. We then developed and parametrized a demographic model to evaluate how temperature affects survival of mosquitoes from the immature to the adult stage. Our studies showed that warming increased development rate of immature mosquitoes (Q 10 ¼ 2.8) but also increased daily mortality from increased predation rates by a dytiscid beetle (Q 10 ¼ 1.2 -1.5). Despite increased daily mortality, the model indicated that faster development and fewer days exposed to predators resulted in an increased probability of mosquito survival to the adult stage. Warming also advanced mosquito phenology, bringing mosquitoes into phenological synchrony with caribou. Increases in biting pests will have negative consequences for caribou and their role as a subsistence resource for local communities. Generalizable frameworks that account for multiple effects of temperature are needed to understand how climate change impacts coupled human -natural systems.

“…Risk management is suggested as one tool to provide this framework (e.g. Rannow 2011Rannow , 2013Lorenzoni et al 2005;Willows and Connell 2003). 'Stress tests' that help to identify critical changes and thresholds for resilience of ecosystems might be another tool (Brown and Wilby 2012).…”
