We conducted a manipulative experiment to quantify the impact of small mammal herbivores on the belowground biogeochemistry of the tundra at three sites near Toolik Lake, Alaska. At each site we set up grazing fences in July of 2018 to simulate different levels of small mammal herbivore (vole and lemming) activity. Each site had 3 treatment plots and a control plot: 1)Exclosure treatments (EX) were 8 meter (m) x 8m square mesh fences 2) control plots (CT) were 8m x 8m unfenced plots marked with pin flags at corners 3) press treatments (PR) were 20m x 20m square mesh fences stocked with 4 tundra voles (Microtus oeconomus) every summer and 4) pulse treatments (PU) where we stocked the fence with 4 voles in 2018 and then removed and excluded voles from 2019-2022. At each site we collected 10 thaw depth measurements along a transect from each treatment.
