Polar Bears from Space: Assessing Satellite Imagery As a Tool to Track Arctic Wildlife
Polar Bears from Space: Assessing Satellite Imagery as a Tool to Track Arctic Wildlife Seth Stapleton1*¤a, Michelle LaRue3, Nicolas Lecomte4¤b, Stephen Atkinson4, David Garshelis2,5, Claire Porter3, Todd Atwood1 1 United States Geological Survey, Alaska Science Center, Anchorage, Alaska, United States of America, 2 Department of Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation Biology, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota, United States of America, 3 Department of Earth Sciences, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States of America, 4 Department of Environment, Government of Nunavut, Igloolik, Nunavut, Canada, 5 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, Grand Rapids, Minnesota, United States of America Abstract Development of efficient techniques for monitoring wildlife is a priority in the Arctic, where the impacts of climate change are acute and remoteness and logistical constraints hinder access. We evaluated high resolution satellite imagery as a tool to track the distribution and abundance of polar bears. We examined satellite images of a small island in Foxe Basin, Canada, occupied by a high density of bears during the summer ice-free season. Bears were distinguished from other light-colored spots by comparing images collected on different dates. A sample of ground-truthed points demonstrated that we accurately classified bears. Independent observers reviewed images and a population estimate was obtained using mark– recapture models. This estimate (N^ : 94; 95% Confidence Interval: 92–105) was remarkably similar to an abundance estimate derived from a line transect aerial survey conducted a few days earlier (N^ : 102; 95% CI: 69–152). Our findings suggest that satellite imagery is a promising tool for monitoring polar bears on land, with implications for use with other Arctic wildlife. -

Tab 6 Estimating the Abundance Of
SUBMISSION TO THE NUNAVUT WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT BOARD FOR Information: X Decision: Issue: South Baffin Island Caribou Abundance Survey, 2012 and Proposed Management Recommendations Background: Caribou are a critical component of the boreal and arctic ecosystems. They are culturally significant to local communities and provide an important source of food. In some areas, there is still uncertainty on population trends because of the lack of scientific information due to difficult logistics and remoteness. This is particularly true for Baffin Island, where three sub-populations of Barrenground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) are hypothesized, though little is known about their abundance and trends over time (Ferguson and Gauthier 1992). In the past 60 years, only discrete portions of their range have been surveyed and no robust quantitative estimates at the sub-population level were ever derived. For over a decade Inuit from communities on northern Baffin Island, and more recently from across the entire island, have reported declines in caribou numbers, although no quantitative estimates are available. In total 10 communities, representing half of all Nunavummiut, traditionally or currently harvest Baffin Island caribou. At the same time, climate change, including increased arctic temperatures and precipitation, and anthropogenic activities connected to mineral exploration and mining are potentially negatively impacting caribou and their range. Due to the risk of these cumulative negative effects, and the importance of these caribou to communities, the Department of Environment undertook, in 2012, a quantitative caribou abundance aerial survey of South Baffin Island with the support of the NWMB and co- management partners. This area represents the most abundant area of caribou on Baffin Island. -

IQRF 2019 001 Kkangiqłiniq HTO Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Final Report
Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Workshop Rankin Inlet, August 20, 2019 Clayton Tartak Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Ezra Greene Research Consultant Warren Bernauer Research Consultant Report prepared for the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Summary On August 20, 2019 the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization (K-HTO) in Rankin Inlet held a day-long workshop with four Elders: Jerome Kupaak Tattuinee, Mary-Ann Inuaraq Tattuinee, Alain Kumak Kabvitok, and Jack Tikiq Kabvitok. The focus of the workshop was Inuit perspectives on caribou management. The project was carried out by three researchers: Clayton Tartak (project leader), Ezra Greene (research consultant), and Warren Bernauer (research consultant). Interpretation services between Inuktitut and English were provided by Maggie Putulik. The project received funding from the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board’s (NWMB) Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Research Fund. To facilitate discussion, the researchers screened videos from the Kaminuriak Caribou Herd Project: a participatory video project that documented Inuit perspectives on caribou management in the early 1980s. The videos helped stimulate conversation – they were particularly useful in generating discussion about how caribou and caribou management have changed since the 1980s. The workshop addressed several issues relevant to caribou management today, including: traditional rules for caribou hunting, changes related to caribou since the 1980s, the impacts of mining on caribou, concerns with selling caribou meat, concerns with younger hunters not following traditional rules, the importance of teaching younger hunters traditional skills, rules, and values, and commentary on research. The Elders indicated that they enjoyed the workshop format, especially the use of videos and recommended the researchers hold similar workshops in other communities. -
