A review of climate change impacts on migration patterns of marine vertebrates in Arctic and Subarctic ecosystems by Katherine J. Kuletz, Steven H. Ferguson, Morten Frederiksen, Colin P. Gallagher, Donna D. W. Hauser, Haakon Hop, Kit M. Kovacs, Christian Lydersen, Anders Mosbech, Andrew C. Seitz

“…Herein, we review what is known about climate-driven changes in the migration patterns of Arctic and Subarctic marine vertebrates, including: 1) Arctic residents with seasonal movements – those fishes, seabirds, and marine mammals that complete their entire life cycle within the Arctic but exhibit seasonal movements; 2) Breeding migrants – many seabirds enter the Arctic to breed and subsequently migrate south in the fall; and 3) Summer visitors for feeding – certain species of boreal fishes, seabirds and marine mammals arrive during the northern summer to feed on abundant prey though they breed elsewhere. …”
