Walruses from space: walrus counts in simultaneous remotely piloted aircraft system versus very high‐resolution satellite imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
Regular counts of walruses (Odobenus rosmarus) across their pan‐Arctic range are necessary to determine accurate population trends and in turn understand how current rapid changes in their habitat, such as sea ice loss, are impacting them.
