Extreme physiological adaptations as predictors of climatechange sensitivity in the narwhal, Monodon monoceros

Rapid changes in sea ice cover associated with global warming are poised to have marked impacts on polarmarinemammals.Here we examine skeletalmuscle characteristics supporting swimming and diving in one polar species, the narwhal, and use these attributes to further document this cetacean’s vulnerability to unpredictable sea ice conditions and changing ecosystems. We found that extreme morpholo...

Winter Feeding Intensity of Narwhals (monodon Monoceros)

Stomach contents from 121 narwhals (Monondon monoceros) harvested in the eastern Canadian High Arctic and West Greenland were used to quantify seasonal changes in feeding activity and prey selection. Stomachs collected from summer harvests were mostly empty with little evidence of recent feeding. Stomachs collected in late fall and winter harvests had considerable amounts of undigested material...

Paradoxical escape responses by narwhals (Monodon monoceros).

Until recent declines in Arctic sea ice levels, narwhals (Monodon monoceros) have lived in relative isolation from human perturbation and sustained predation pressures. The resulting naïvety has made this cryptic, deep-diving cetacean highly susceptible to disturbance, although quantifiable effects have been lacking. We deployed a submersible, animal-borne electrocardiograph-accelerometer-depth...

Diving behaviour of narwhals (Monodon monoceros) at two coastal localities in the Canadian High Arctic

In August 1999 and 2000, four suction-cup-attached time–depth recorders (TDRs) were deployed and retrieved from narwhals (Monodon monoceros) in Tremblay Sound, Baffin Island, and Creswell Bay, Somerset Island, Nunavut, Canada. The TDRs remained on the whales for between 12 and 33 h and collected 64.5 h of dive data. Mean dive depths ranged from 20.8 m (SD = 14.8 m) to 50.8 m (SD = 43.8 m) and m...
