Feasibility and knowledge gaps to modeling circumpolar seabird bycatch in the Arctic
Alteration and diminution in sea ice cover in the Arctic region will give rise to an intensifcation and expansion of fishing activities in the Arctic and associated marginal seas. Increased fshing activity, especially in the summer, could pose a direct threat to the millions of seabirds breeding in...
