Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Chronic overgrazing by sika deer has caused smaller body size due to density dependent resource limitation and various impacts on ecosystems. These involved feedback mechanism that available nitrogen for canopy tree increased and supplied litter with low C/N subject to degradation into soil. In addition, we found the complex changes in species diversity and phylogenetic diversity of vegetation, possibility of decrease in bumblebee population due to extinction of bloom phenology. For insects, the responses to high density of deer were different among taxon and functional group, and overgrazing by deer might cause negative feedback effects on insects which depend on understory vegetation through depression of food resources and habitat.
