Modeling Ringed and Bearded Seal Future Habitats Indicates Stability, Shifts, and Refugia
Every year, ringed seals and bearded seals rely on specific ice and snow conditions to support events such as feeding or reproduction. With Earth System Models, we simulate habitat over 1850–2100, revealing a relatively stable past habitat contrasting with rapid regional shifts in contemporary simulations and future projections.

The abundance and distribution of animals often vary dramatically among years in Arctic environments. Such variation, in turn, is closely related to changes in food abundance and its effect on vital rates such as survival and recruitment.

Effect of Climate Change on Arctic Fox (Vulpes/Alopex Lagopus)
Under the context of climate change, global warming, arctic regions are undergoing a rapid pattern transformation. This paper investigates the link between global warming and arctic fox (Vulpes/Alopex lagopus). This paper focuses on changes in environment.

Multi‐scale maternal behavioral responses by white‐tailed deer to coyote predation risk
In the piedmont region of the southeastern US, white‐tailed deer adjust maternal care strategies in response to variation in risk of encountering coyotes. In areas frequented by coyotes, adult female deer (i.e., does) increase their use of space, likely to avoid drawing coyotes to the location where a fawn is hidden.

Use of stable isotopes to reveal trophic relationships and transmission of a food-borne pathogen
Predators in food webs are valuable sentinel species for zoonotic and multi-host pathogens such as Toxoplasma gondii. This protozoan parasite is ubiquitous in warm-blooded vertebrates, and can have serious adverse effects in immunocompromised hosts and ...

The triangulation between Arctic birds, Arctic foxes and Arctic lemmings
Many studies have suggested that Arctic predators preying on lemmings, especially the Arctic fox, take advantage of the high prey densities during peak years, but have to switch to alternative prey during years of low lemming density, thereby forcing ...
