Predictions replaced by facts: a keystone species' behavioural responses to declining arctic sea-ice
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
Subadult ringed seals swam greater distances, showed less area-restricted search behaviour, dived for longer periods, exhibited shorter surface intervals, rested less on sea-ice and did less diving directly beneath the ice during post-moulting foraging excursions, suggesting increased foraging effort and thus also likely increases in the energetic costs of finding food.
