Muskrats as a bellwether of a drying delta

Ward et al. investigate population dynamics of a wetland indicator species, the semi-aquatic muskrat, within the large and protected area of the Peace-Athabasca Delta in Canada. The authors found indications of rapid population increases associated with flood events, genetic signatures of population...
