Evaluating breeding habitat and populations of ringed seals Phoca hispida in Svalbard fjords
Abstract In Tempelfjorden and Sassenfjorden, Svalbard, 12 March to4 April 1990, a Siberian husky dog was used to detect ringed seal breathing holes in the ice, using random stratified sampling to sample 20% (40 km 2 ) of the total area. The area was estimated to contain 997 ringed seal breathing hol...
