Fine-scale variability in iceberg velocity fields and implications for an ice-associated pinniped by L. M. Kaluzienski, J. M. Amundson, J. N. Womble, A. K. Bliss, L. E. Pearson

“…Environmental forcings can drive dramatic changes in the overall reduction in ice coverage across fjords in the circumpolar regions, with implications for pinnipeds that use ice for critical life-history functions, including pupping and molting. To better understand how pinnipeds respond to changes in iceberg habitat, we combine (i) iceberg velocity fields over hourly to monthly timescales, derived from high-rate time-lapse photogrammetry of Johns Hopkins Glacier and Inlet, Alaska, with (ii) aerial photographic surveys of harbor seals (<i>Phoca vitulina richardii</i>) conducted during the pupping (June) and molting (August) seasons. …”
