Biophysical changes in marine ecosystems of the Arctic and subarctic sectors of the Atlantic
and Pacific are now evident, driven primarily by sea ice loss, ocean warming and increases …

In this study, we assess prey consumption by the marine mammal community in the
northeast Atlantic [including 21 taxa, across three regions:(I) the Icelandic shelf, Denmark …

This study used 13 years of cetacean sighting data (2002–2014) from waters around the
Svalbard Archipelago to determine key habitats for year-round resident species as well as …

Global warming is affecting the population dynamics and trophic interactions across a wide
range of ecosystems and habitats. Translating these real‐time effects into their long‐term …

The location of Iceland at the junction of submarine ridges in the North-East Atlantic where
warm and cold water masses meet south of the Arctic Circle contributes to high productivity …

The highly productive waters off Iceland are an important feeding ground for baleen whales.
Five balaenopterid species coexist there during the summer feeding season: the blue whale …

Body length is one of the most important factors that influence organismal function and
ecological niche. Although larger animals tend to have a suite of physiological advantages …

The main observed effects of climate change on marine mammals globally have been
geographical range shifts and loss of habitat through ice cover loss, changes to the food …

This study aimed to assess possible shifts in distributional patterns of cetaceans residing in
the Norwegian Sea, and to relate the distribution to their feeding ecology during the summer …

Climate-mediated phenological shifts can cause species to lose access to their primary prey
while increasing opportunities for alternative-prey encounters. Species that are able to …
