Common vole numbers in relation to the utilization of burrow systems
Open accessAbstract
Population dynamics of the common vole Microtus arvalis (Pallas, 1779), changes in the number of burrow systems, and their utilization were studied in perennial crops of different regions of Poland in 1970-1979. A multi-year cycle in common vole numbers was found.

Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Microtus rodents seem to be an easily accessible and abundant prey for foxes, since their population densities can reach over 1,000 individuals/ha (Mackin-Rogalska et al. 1986; Briner et al. 2007).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
