Ice Seal Tracking Maps Archive

Over the last ten days we have received transmissions from 3 ringed (solid lines) and 3 bearded (dashed lines) seals. One ringed and one bearded seal are lingering in Kotzebue Sound, the same bay they were tagged in during June 2014. Two of the three bearded seals tagged on the Koyuk River are still in Norton Sound. The remaining two ringed seals are located in Norton Sound and west of Nome. Sea ice data are courtesy of the U.S. National Ice Center, dated 1 December (http://www.natice.noaa.gov/index.html).
