Mortality in an alpine ungulate increases nonlinearly with snow depth.

This study shows that mortality in bighorn sheep increases nonlinearly with snow depth, with survival declines beyond specific thresholds, and highlights a declining trend in survival over 45 years.

Harsh snow conditions reduce body mass and reproductive success of an alpine ungulate, inducing carry-over effects.

This study shows that harsh snow conditions reduce body mass and reproductive success in bighorn sheep, with lasting effects on their autumn condition.
