Study reveals spatial relationships among sea ice species, indicating community structure and ecosystem function.

The study identifies spatial clustering of polar bears, Arctic foxes, and seals in western Hudson Bay.
Polar bear hotspots show extensive overlap (30%-49%) with other species, highlighting community interactions.
Data from four years of observations support the analysis of predator-prey relationships on sea ice.
Findings are essential for developing conservation strategies and understanding impacts of Arctic warming.

Rodrigues et al. (2025) studied this question.
