The prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in polar bears and their marine mammal prey: evidence for a marine transmission pathway? (2010, background): “This was done because western Spitsbergen is highly inXuenced by Atlantic Water, while Wijdefjorden is most inXuenced by colder water from the Arctic Ocean and this has an impact on the prey species available for the seals in the two respective areas (see Labansen et al. 2007).”
Understanding the diet composition of marine mammals: grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) in the Baltic Sea (2010, methodology): “, 2003), but only a few have used the technique to analyse the diets of seals (Labansen et al., 2007; Lundström et al., 2007).”

Impacts of changing sea-ice conditions on Arctic marine mammals (2011, background): “Polar cod (Boreogadus saida), Arctic cod (Arctogadus glacialis) and large zooplankton species such as Parathemisto libellula make up most of the ringed seal’s diet (e.g., Wathne et al. 2000; Labansen et al. 2007).”
