Overview

Forecasted climate warming affects recruitment and biodiversity in marine mammals, indicating urgent conservation needs for Indigenous peoples.

Key Points

  • Projected abundance of ringed seals can decline by up to 71% by 2100, highlighting urgent conservation needs.
  • The chosen greenhouse gas emissions pathway significantly impacts snow-on-ice depth and sea-ice area affecting populations.
  • Assessment using a novel demographic model for the ringed seal reflects important ecological changes in the Chukchi Sea.
  • Highlights the relevance to conservation assessments for marine mammals under U.S. Endangered Species Act.
