Using satellite telemetry to define spatial population structure in polar bears in the Norwegian and western Russian Arctic (2002, background): “However, mark and recapture studies of polar bears have revealed no significant sex- or age-related differences in philopatry (Lentfer 1983; Taylor et al . 2001 ).”
A tale of two polar bear populations: ice habitat, harvest, and body condition (2011, background): “The BB population has its northern boundary at 77 N in the North Water Polynya, and is bounded by west Greenland to the east and Baffin Island to the west (Taylor et al. 2001).”
Importance of fast ice and glacier fronts for female polar bears and their cubs during spring in Svalbard, Norway (2012, unknown): “…from the Svalbard/Barents Sea population show a high degree of seasonal fidelity (Mauritzen et al. 2001); site fidelity has also been observed in other polar bear populations (Stirling et al. 1977, 1980, 2004, Lentfer 1983, Bethke et al. 1996, Born et al. 1997, Taylor et al. 2001, Stirling 2002).”
Polar Bears and Seals in the Eastern Beaufort Sea and Amundsen Gulf: A Synthesis of Population Trends and Ecological Relationships over Three Decades (2002, background): “…home ranges, exhibit a high degree of seasonal fidelity (e.g., Stirling et al., 1977a, 1980; Lentfer, 1983; Garner et al., 1994; Amstrup, 1995; Wiig, 1995; Bethke et al., 1996; Born et al., 1997; Taylor et al., 2001), and form populations that are separable genetically (Paetkau et al., 1995, 1999).”
POLAR BEAR DIETS AND ARCTIC MARINE FOOD WEBS: INSIGHTS FROM FATTY ACID ANALYSIS (2008, background): “1 are based on extensive analyses of polar bear movement patterns (e.g., Stirling et al. 1977b, 1980, Bethke et al. 1996, Taylor et al. 2001, Amstrup et al. 2004) and genetic relationships (Paetkau et al. 1995, 1999).”
Using satellite radiotelemetry data to delineate and manage wildlife populations (2004, background): “Because they lacked the ability to assess uncertainty in their estimates, Taylor et al. (2001) “validated” their results by review of ancillary information collected during their study or studies conducted by others.”
Scientific Review for the Identification of Critical Habitat for Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), Boreal Population, in Canada (2008, methodology): “For multiple local populations within a continuous habitat, cluster analysis of movements can be used to defi ne group membership (Taylor et al. 2001).”
Possible Effects of Climate Warming on Selected Populations of Polar Bears ( Ursus maritimus ) in the Canadian Arctic (2009, methodology): “The present status and trend of the polar bear population of Davis Strait, which is shared by Nunavut, Labrador, Quebec, and West Greenland, are unknown.”
Quantifying the sensitivity of Arctic marine mammals to climate-induced habitat change. (2008, background): “…areas (i.e., Hudson Bay, Foxe Basin, Baffin Bay/Davis Strait), the annual ice melts completely and all bears are forced to spend up to several months on land fasting until freeze-up allows them to return to the ice again (e.g., Stirling et al. 1999, Taylor et al. 2001, Stirling and Parkinson 2006).”
