Age‐specific reproduction in female Steller sea lions in Southeast Alaska
Age‐, region‐, and year‐specific estimates of reproduction are needed for monitoring wildlife populations during periods of ecosystem change. Population dynamics of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) in Southeast Alaska varied regionally (with high ...

ABSTRACT Aim Environmental heterogeneity shapes species diversity by creating ecological niches (habitat heterogeneity hypothesis). Yet its role in driving behavioural diversity within species remains only partially understood. Behavioural diversity enhances a population's ability to exploit ecological niches and adapt to environmental change, making ...

Capelin Size, Condition, and Abundance Through Multiple Heatwaves in Alaska
ABSTRACT Capelin (Mallotus spp.) are pelagic forage fishes that can be especially abundant in sub‐arctic marine ecosystems and are important prey for upper trophic‐level consumers. Abundance and distribution of capelin have been linked to ocean temperature, but the magnitude and directionality of thermal sensitivity can vary regionally.

The scaling of diving time budgets : insights from an optimality approach [PDF]
The authors acknowledge the Natural Environment Research Council for support with this work (grant NER/A/S/2003/00616).Simple scaling arguments suggest that, among air-breathing divers, dive duration should scale approximately with mass to the one-third ...

Food habits of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) off Oregon and northern California, 1986–2007 [PDF]
We described the diet of the eastern stock of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) from 1416 scat samples collected from five sites in Oregon and northern California from 1986 through 2007. A total of 47 prey types from 30 families wereidentified.
