The elusive narwhal in a rapidly changing Arctic / Mads Peter Heide-Jørgensen.
Title: | The elusive narwhal in a rapidly changing Arctic / Mads Peter Heide-Jørgensen. |
Author(s): | Heide-Jørgensen, Mads Peter. |
Date: | 2009. |
In: | Circle. (2009.), Vol. 4 (2009) |
Abstract: | Discusses extent to which narwhals (Monodon monoceros) may be vulnerable to larger ecosystem changes brought on by climate change. Argues that narwhals are most climate-sensitive of Arctic marine mammals, owing to restricted and specialised distribution, limited diet, low plasticity in migration patterns and low abundance. |
Notes: | Circle. Vol. 4 :17-18 (2009). Special issue: The changing Arctic : how species are being impacted. |
