Interestingly, dimensionality in this large-mammal system parallels the dynamic structure of the lynx-hare system of the Canadian boreal forest at the herbivore level, but not at the predator level [ 28 ] . The embedding dimension of lynx, which are affected by many species other than snowshoe hare across the boreal forest of Canada, is generally two or higher [ 28 30 ] . The contrasting simplicity of wolf dynamics on Isle Royale reflects, we suggest, the comparatively insular nature of the Isle Royale system and relative scarcity of additional species influencing the dynamics of wolves there [ 31 ] .

Previously, we identified correlations between large-scale variation in winter climate, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) [ 9 ] , and: predation efficiency of wolves ( Canis lupus ), mortality of old moose ( Alces alces ), and growth dynamics of balsam fir ( Abies balsamea ) on Isle Royale [ 6 ] . Additionally, we have documented influences of the NAO, wolf predation, and density dependence on the intrinsic rate of increase in the moose population on Isle Royale [ 10 ] . Hence, the current analysis was motivated by the results of these earlier attempts to dissect the relative contributions of intrinsic and extrinsic processes to the dynamics of this community, as well as by a more general interest in developing a community-level model of climatic effects at and among multiple trophic levels that may subsequently contribute to our understanding of the implications of climatic change for community stability.
The time series we analyzed comprise 30 years of data (1958-88) from the monitoring study on Isle Royale on the population dynamics of wolves and moose, and interannual variability in growth increments of balsam fir [ 6 15 16 ] . Though the data extend to the present, estimates of moose density beyond 1988 have not been adjusted by cohort reconstruction (see ref.
