Abstract
Trophic interactions and population structure can shape how climate change influences ecosystems by modifying herbivore responses to environmental conditions. Predation can influence herbivore behaviour and demography, but how changes in predation and population structure affect herbivore distribution across abiotic gradients remains little known. This study assesses whether predators altered the response of different age and sex classes of a dominant ungulate herbivore to changing abiotic conditions.
