Where do sea lions live? Interspecific interactions and abiotic factors predict Steller sea lion habitat.

open access: yesSpectrum, 2018
Habitat selection by species is dependent on both abiotic factors and species interaction. With regards to species interaction, competition and facilitation can play a critical role regarding how a species selects its habitat. Previous work has suggested

Winter movements and long-term dispersal of Steller sea lions in the Glacier Bay region of Southeast Alaska

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2018
Steller sea lions Eumetopias jubatus in the Glacier Bay region of northern Southeast Alaska experience greater survival and more rapid population growth than sea lions elsewhere in this region. To better understand demographics of sea lions in the region,

No evidence of metabolic depression in Western Alaskan juvenile Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Steller sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus) populations have undergone precipitous declines through their western Alaskan range over the last four decades with the leading hypothesis to explain this decline centering around changing prey quality, quantity, or ...

Sources and sinks of sediment-bound contaminants in the Gulf of Lions (NW Mediterranean Sea): A multi-tracer approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Surficial sediments collected in 2002 throughout the Gulf of Lions continental shelf (NW Mediterranean) were analysed for trace metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Ni, Pb, Sr, Zn and Zr), major elements (Al, Ca, Fe, P and Ti) and the sewage marker coprostanol ...

Are California Sea Lions (Zalophus californianus) Sensitive to the Attentional State of their Caretakers? [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2014
Human-animal relations appear in various contexts (homes, farms, zoos, aquatic parks, etc.) possibly favoring the emergence of the ability to understand heterospecific communication signals in several species.

Tracing early stages of species differentiation: Ecological, morphological and genetic divergence of Galapagos sea lion populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Oceans are high gene flow environments that are traditionally believed to hamper the build-up of genetic divergence. Despite this, divergence appears to occur occasionally at surprisingly small scales.

Changes in the overwintering diet of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) in relation to the 2014 – 2016 northeast Pacific marine heatwave

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2023
Understanding variation in the diets of endangered species during critical time periods in their annual cycle is of utmost importance because of the effects that diet can have on vital rates and population trends.
