The USGS Alaska Science Center is offering this grant to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner for research. This grant is for studying the response of polar bear activity levels to varying seasonal sea ice conditions in the Chukchi and southern Beaufort seas. The primary purpose of this funding is to advance our understanding of how polar bears are responding to changes in the availability of their vital sea ice habitat. This research will provide crucial insights into ecological mechanisms, supporting conservation efforts and future management strategies for these Arctic populations.
