Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid circulation of warm subtropical waters in a major glacial fjord in East Greenland
Fiamma Straneo,Gordon S. Hamilton,David A. Sutherland,David A. Sutherland,Leigh A. Stearns,Leigh A. Stearns,Fraser Davidson,Mike O. Hammill,Garry B. Stenson,Aqqalu Rosing-Asvid +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that subtropical waters that reside year-round in the shelf ocean off Greenland continuously enter a large glacial fjord in East Greenland and contribute to melting at the glacier terminus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine mammals and the community structure of the Estuary and Gulf of St Lawrence, Canada: evidence from stable isotope analysis
TL;DR: A multiple stable isotope and multiple tissue approach suggested that marine mammals occupied the highest trophic positions in the food webs of both communities and that they overlapped with one another to some extent trophically.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional classification of harbor seal (Phoca vitulina) dives using depth profiles, swimming velocity, and an index of foraging success
TL;DR: Time-depth-speed recorders and stomach-temperature sensors were deployed on harbor seals in the St. Lawrence estuary to examine their diving and foraging behavior, finding feeding occurred during dives of all five types, four of which were U-shaped, while one was V-shaped.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology of the ringed seal, Phoca hispida, in its fast ice breeding habitat
Thomas G. Smith,Mike O. Hammill +1 more
TL;DR: Observations indicate that ringed seals are territorial and similar to the polygynous Weddell seal of the antarctic in their social organization.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The use of animal telemetry is a powerful tool for observing marine animals and the physical environments that they inhabit, from coastal and continental shelf ecosystems to polar seas and open oceans.
