    • Harp seal body condition and trophic interactions with prey in Norwegian high Arctic waters in early autumn 

      Haug, Tore; Biuw, Martin; Gjøsæter, Harald; Knutsen, Tor; Lindstrøm, Ulf; MacKanzie, Kirsteen M.; Meier, Sonnich; Nilssen, Kjell Tormod (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-28)
      In September 2016, a marine ecosystem survey covered all trophic levels from phytoplankton to seals in the Arctic Ocean to the west and north of Svalbard. At the ice edge, 26 harp seals were sampled to assess whether recent environmental changes had affected their diets and body condition by comparing our current results with previous investigations conducted 2–3 decades ago in the northern Barents ...

    • The intensity of horizontal and vertical search in a diving forager the harbour seal 

      Ramasco, Virginie; Barraquand, Frédéric; Biuw, Martin; McConnell, Bernie J.; Nilssen, Kjell Tormod (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-05-27)
      <p>Background: Free ranging foraging animals can vary their searching intensity in response to the profitability of the environment by modifying their movements. Marine diving animals forage in a three dimensional space and searching intensity can be varied in both the horizontal and vertical planes. Therefore understanding the relationship between the allocation of searching effort in these two ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-11)
      Aim: Identify hotspots and areas of high species richness for Arctic marine mammals.<p><p> Location: Circumpolar Arctic. <p>Methods: A total of 2115 biologging devices were deployed on marine mammals from 13 species in the Arctic from 2005 to 2019. Getis-Ord Gi* hotspots were calculated based on the number of individuals in grid cells for each species and for phyloge-netic groups (nine pinnipeds, ...

    • Report From Surveys To Assess Harp And Hooded Seal Pup Production In The Greenland Sea Pack-Ice In 2022 

      Biuw, Martin; Nilssen, Kjell Tormod; Kristiansen, Martin; Lindblom, Lotta; Poltermann, Michael Tino; Haug, Tore; Johansson, Malin (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2022-06-07)
      Cruise no.: 2022703 : The 2022 survey of harp and hooded seal pup production in the Greenland Sea was carried out to obtain updated estimates to be used to assess current status of these two seal stocks. Since a similar survey in 2018 indicated a 40% reduction in harp seal pup production since the 2012 survey, and the continued lack of increase in pup production of the severely depleted hooded ...
