In Arctic Canada, Hudson Bay is a site of great exploration
history, aboriginal culture, and a vast marine wilderness
supporting large populations of marine mammals and birds. These
include some of the most iconic Arctic animals like beluga,
narwhal, bowhead whales, and polar bears. Due to the challenges of
conducting field research in this region, some of the mysteries of
where these animals move, and how they are able to survive in such
seemingly inhospitable, ice-choked habitats are just now being
unlocked. For example, are polar bears being replaced by killer
whales? This new information could not be more salient, as the
Hudson Bay Region is undergoing rapid environmental change due to
global warming, as well as increased pressures from industrial
development interests. A Little Less Arctic brings together some of
the world's leading Arctic scientists to present the current state
of knowledge on the physical and biological characteristics of
Hudson Bay.
