Ice Seal Tracking Maps Archive

During the last fourteen days we have received locations for 1 ringed seal (solid line) and 2 bearded seals (dashed lines). None of these seals have moved far during the last two weeks; their most recent locations are within 12 miles of their location on the previous update. The ringed seal, RS14-01-M, and one bearded seal, BS15-07-M, are still in Norton Sound, east of Nome. The bearded seal BS15-03-F is in Bristol Bay, in the Southeast Bering Sea.
