Effects of a Warming Climate on Caribou, Moose and Sitka Black-tailed Deer on the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound

Climate envelope models suggest in the near term caribou will likely decrease due to afforestation of alpine tundra; moose will likely increase due to continued colonization of Prince William Sound, afforestation of the Kenai Lowlands and alpine tundra, and increasing fires on the western peninsula; and Sitka deer will likely increase due to colonization of the eastern peninsula.
