“…Although sea-ice losses will not be the only impact of global warming within the Arctic, the declines over the past 3 decades and the predicted, continued declines in sea ice (e.g., Wang and Overland 2009) are in themselves expected to have significant consequences for marine ecosystems in the Arctic, including their mammalian inhabitants. The earliest warning signs of climate change in the Arctic gave rise to concern for the potential impacts on marine mammals of the region (Stirling and Derocher 1993;MacGarvin and Simmonds 1996;Tynan and DeMaster 1997;Moore 2000;Carmack and McLaughlin 2001;Kelly 2001) and particular concern has been raised for pagophilic ("ice-loving") species (e.g., ACIA 2005; Johnston et al 2005;Laidre and Heide-Jørgensen 2005;Moore and Laidre 2006;Simmonds and Isaac 2007;Kovacs and Lydersen 2008;Laidre et al 2008a;Moore and Huntington 2008). Loss of sea ice represents a reduction in available habitat for ice-associated marine mammals that is already affecting some species, and in the longer term, it is expected that foraging success, fertility rates, mortality rates, etc.…”

“…Spatial autocorrelation within each cluster, most notably the northern Arctic cluster, suggests some degree of geographically restricted gene flow within clusters. The extent to which gene flow has been restricted by winter ice conditions is unknown but ice conditions are changing and it is reasonable to expect these relationships may decay or shift over time (see also Kelly 2001, Petersen et al 2010). In addition, the genetic relationship of walruses in southern Hudson Bay to the six stocks examined here remains unknown.…”

“…Bowhead, gray whale and beluga move beyond the Bering Sea into the productive waters of the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas (Braham et al 1984;O'Corry-Crow et al 1997;Moore et al 2000Moore et al , 2002Moore et al , 2003Braham 2003;Dixon 2003). Arctic-adapted carnivores and pinnipeds that use sea ice as a substrate for mating, giving birth and nursing their young move with the ice as it ebbs north and south: these 'ice-obligate' or 'pagophilic' species include polar bear, Ursus maritimus, walrus, Odobenus rosmarus, bearded seal, Erignathus barbatus, ringed seal, Phoca hispida, spotted seal, Phoca largha, and ribbon seal, Phoca fasciata (Fedoseev 1975;Finley et al 1983;O'Corry-Crow and Westlake 1997;Kelly 2001;Reeves et al 2002;Simpkins et al 2003). In contrast, 'temperate' Bering Sea pinnipeds prefer ice-free terrestrial beaches for these activities, including northern fur seal, Callorhinus ursinus, Steller's sea lion, Eumatopias jubata, and harbour seal, Phoca vitulina (Kenyon and Wilke 1953;Shaunghnessy and Fay 1977; Trites and Antonelis 1994;Ragen et al 1995;Reeves et al 2002).…”

“…Bering Sea, walrus often occur in the same habitats as bearded and ringed seals (Kelly 2001;Simpkins et al 2003). Alternatively, ice may have been present only over water too deep for effective walrus foraging.…”
