Food resources influence levels of persistent organic pollutants and stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen in tissues of Arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) from the Pribilof Islands, Alaska

Polar Research, 2017
The Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) is a small canid with a circumpolar Arctic distribution. Several subspecies are recognized, including a subspecies known as the Pribilof fox (V. l. pribilofensis) endemic to the Pribilof Islands of Alaska, USA.

Polar Bear and Mammoth on the Pribilof Islands [PDF]

ARCTIC, 1971
Museum specimens of polar bear from the Pribilof Islands include the skull of an individual shot on St. Paul, and fragmentary remains of uncertain geologic age from a lava cave in Bogoslof Hill, St. Paul, once thought to represent a distinct species. Mammoth remains have been discovered from time to time beginning in 1836, and are here regarded as in ...

Genomic differentiation in Pacific cod using Pool-Seq. [PDF]

Evol Appl, 2022
Abstract Patterns of genetic differentiation across the genome can provide insight into selective forces driving adaptation. We used pooled whole genome sequencing, gene annotation, and environmental covariates to evaluate patterns of genomic differentiation and to investigate mechanisms responsible for divergence among proximate Pacific cod (Gadus ...

Genetic Data Reveal Nonlocal Juvenile Recruitment and Variable Seasonal Movement of a Highly Mobile Marine Fish Across Alaska. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Movement patterns of marine fish are often difficult to accurately define given seasonal variation, ontogenetic shifts, and changing environmental conditions. However, outlining movement is crucial for understanding population dynamics, as well as for conservation and management efforts.

Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Substantial Genetic Structure and Evidence of Local Adaptation in Alaskan Red King Crab. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT High‐latitude ocean basins are the most productive on earth, supporting high diversity and biomass of economically and socially important species. A long tradition of responsible fisheries management has sustained these species for generations, but modern threats from climate change, habitat loss, and new fishing technologies threaten their ...

Saxitoxin linked to deaths of northern fur seals in the Southeast Bering Sea. [PDF]

Mar Mamm Sci
ABSTRACT In August 2024, a northern fur seal mortality event was observed on St. Paul Island, AK in the southeast (SE) Bering Sea. Ten seals in good body condition were found dead along with large accumulations of dead fish on Benson Beach located on St. Paul Island.

River Otter Predation of Nesting Seabirds Along the Coasts of North America. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Northern river otter predation of nesting seabirds is rarely reported in published literature, but this behavior is common throughout the Pacific coast and on the northern Atlantic coast. Through surveys of seabird field biologists, we documented records of river otters hunting eighteen different species of nesting seabirds at 73 different colony ...

Drones reveal spatial patterning of sympatric Alaskan pinniped species and drivers of their local distributions

Drone Systems and Applications, 2022
The Arctic and its adjacent ecosystems are undergoing rapid ecological reorganization in response to the effects of global climate change, and sentinel species provide critical updates as these changes unfold. This study leverages emerging remote sensing

What Does Equitable Co‐Production Entail? Three Perspectives

Community Science, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Co‐production practices are increasingly being adopted in research conducted for the purpose of societal impact. However, the ways in which co‐production is conducted can perpetuate long‐standing inequity and inequality. This study investigates which principles of co‐production design are perceived to advance more equitable processes and ...
