Population Dynamics

Abundance and Vital Rates

• Polar bear population status in the southern Beaufort Sea
• Survival and population size of polar bears in western Hudson Bay in relation to earlier sea ice breakup

Distribution

• Using radiotelemetry to allocate harvests among polar bear stocks occupying the Beaufort Sea Region
• Estimating potential effects of hypothetical oil spills on polar bears
• A model for autumn pelagic distribution of adult female polar bears in the Chukchi Sea, 1987-1994
• Radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for grizzly and polar bear research

Mortality

• Observations of intraspecific predation by polar bears in the southern Beaufort Sea
