Field studies were carried out throughout June and early July 2007, in the surroundings of Staloluokta, Padjelanta National Park, Laponia, Sweden.
Birds are excellent indicators of environmental change, such as biologically important effects of climate change, and consequently studies of birds can be used to predict the development over large areas. This project studied effects of climate change on the reproductive biology of birds in Padjelanta, the most species-rich area of the World Heritage Site Laponia in northern Sweden.
