Efficacy of deterrents for mitigating human‐polar bear conflict in northern Alaska
A warming climate is negatively affecting Arctic species that rely on sea ice to perform their life history activities. Changing sea ice dynamics have led polar bears in many subpopulations to spend more time on land, increasing the potential for human ...

Polar bear attack on a juvenile narwhal
A juvenile female narwhal Monodon monoceros landed at Pond Inlet had several sets of scratches on the posterior part of the body. They were probably made by a polar bear Ursus maritimus in the course of an unsuccessful attack.

Polar Bear Harvest Patterns Across the Circumpolar Arctic
Wildlife harvest remains a conservation concern for many species and assessing patterns of harvest can provide insights on sustainability and inform management. Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) are harvested over a large part of their range by local people.

Polar bears Polar bears are large carnivorous mammals that inhabit the Arctic regions of the world. They are well adapted to living in a cold and icy environment, with thick fur, a layer of insulating blubber, and large, webbed paws that allow them to swim and walk on snow and ice.

Polar bear visits to human infrastructure increase with sea ice loss, not poor body condition
Climate warming has reduced Arctic sea ice, forcing some populations of polar bears (Ursus maritimus Phipps, 1774) to spend more time on land and increasing the potential for encounters with humans.

Low-Latitude Coronal Holes at the Minimum of the 23rd Solar Cycle [PDF]
Low and mid-latitude coronal holes (CHs) observed on the Sun during the current solar activity minimum (from September 21, 2006, Carrington rotation (CR) 2048, until June 26, 2009 (CR 2084)) were analyzed using {\it SOHO}/EIT and STEREO-A SECCHI EUVI ...

Identifying indicators of polar bear population status
Monitoring trends in large mammal populations is a fundamental component of wildlife management and conservation. However, direct estimates of population size and vital rates of large mammals can be logistically challenging and expensive. Indicators that
