    • Carbon, Nitrogen and Sulphur isotopic fractionation in captive juvenile hooded seal (Cystophora cristata): application for diet analysis 

      Pinzone, Marianna; Acquarone, Mario; Huyghebaert, Loreen; Sturaro, Nicolas; Michel, Loïc N.; Siebert, Ursula; Das, Krishna (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-15)
      <p><i>Rationale</i>: Intrinsic biogeochemical markers, such as stable isotope ratios of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur, are increasingly used to trace the trophic ecology of marine top predators. However, insufficient knowledge of fractionation processes in tissues continues to hamper the use of these markers.</p> <p><i>Methods</i>: We performed a controlled feeding experiment with eight juvenile ...

    • First record of plastic debris in the stomach of a hooded seal pup from the Greenland Sea 

      Pinzone, Marianna; Nordøy, Erling Sverre; Eppe, Gauthier; Malherbe, Cédric; Das, Krishna; Collard, France (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-14)
      Plastic debris is globally found around the world and the remote Arctic is no exception. Arctic true seals are sentinel species of marine pollution and represent the link between marine food webs and Arctic apex predators like polar bears and humans. With regard to true seals, ingested macroplastics have never been reported in an Arctic species. We harvested 10 harp seals Pagophilus groenlandicus ...

      There has been a considerable number of reports on Hg concentrations in Arctic mammals since the last Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) effort to review biological effects of the exposure to mercury (Hg) in Arctic biota in 2010 and 2018. Here, we provide an update on the state of the knowledge of health risk associated with Hg concentrations in Arctic marine and terrestrial mammal ...
