Projecting the future of a threatened marine mammal in relation to climate warming
Ecological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 8, December 2025.Abstract Climate warming is expected to impact global biodiversity, especially in the rapidly warming Arctic. There is an urgent need to evaluate the demographic effects of climate warming under different greenhouse gas emission pathways to guide wildlife management and inform listing decisions under protected species legislation.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.Lipid reserve mass is a key indicator of individual fitness and population health in wild animal populations, but no method currently exists to measure it in large aquatic species for which capture is impractical. Here, we develop and employ a new method for quantifying lipid stores in a free‐ranging cetacean, the sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus ...

Efficacy of aerial forward-looking infrared surveys for detecting polar bear maternal dens.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Denned polar bears (Ursus maritimus) are invisible under the snow, therefore winter-time petroleum exploration and development activities in northern Alaska have potential to disturb maternal polar bears and their cubs.
