Abstract The northern Bering and Chukchi Seas are areas in the Pacific Arctic characterized
by high northward advection of Pacific Ocean water, with seasonal variability in sea ice …

Many organizations collect large passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) data sets that need to
be efficiently and reliably analyzed. To determine appropriate methods for effective analysis …

Characterizing variation in predator behaviour and, specifically, quantifying kill rates is
fundamental for parameterizing predator–prey and food web models. Yet, current methods …

Using a variety of data sources we investigate the properties and pathways of Pacific-origin
winter water as it spreads across the eastern Chukchi shelf in early summer. The focus is on …

Abstract The Chukchi and Beaufort seas are undergoing rapid climate change and
increased human activity. Conservation efforts for upper trophic level predators such as …

Highlights•Over the decade 2004–2013 dramatic environmental changes in the Pacific
Arctic suggest a 'new normal'climate is emerging.•Variable advection and hydrographic …

The bowhead whale is the only baleen whale endemic to the Arctic and is well adapted to
this environment. Bowheads live near the polar ice edge for much of the year and although …

The diversity of animal acoustic signals has evolved due to multiple ecological processes,
both biotic and abiotic. At the level of communities of signaling animals, these processes …

Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) produce song and non-song vocalisations,
which allows their presence to be detected through passive acoustic monitoring. To …

Worldwide, climate change is altering habitats in both terrestrial and marine systems (Cohen
et al. 2018). This is particularly true in the Arctic, where dramatic reductions in seasonal sea …
