When restoring disturbed land, it is essential to replace not only the above ground vegetation but also the biological and physical soil properties.
As air and permafrost temperatures change, above ground vegetation also changes.
These birds forage in trees and bushes, sometimes in ground vegetation.
The barren soil makes for poor growth conditions and most of the ground vegetation in the forests is coarse brush.
Research on this fire indicated that the most important factor was the proximity of heavy ground vegetation to the structure.
It requires dense ground vegetation as well as standing water for bathing.
It does not require ground vegetation, and likes damp, rotten, moss-covered wood.
The beach areas are dominated by ground vegetation which is able to tolerate the high salinity of the soil.

They forage on invertebrates found in the ground vegetation.
