@alexee_mayette @CeosUofm Well done Alex!!!

New in @cjfas➡️ @JPWHollins @NEHmarine @HarriPW @LosetoLisa found that distinct freshwater migratory pathways in #Arctic char coincide with separate patterns of marine spatial habitat-use across a large coastal landscape. buff.ly/3QdWBuE #FishSci

Its #PeerReviewWeek22 and we want to highlight #Indigenous participation in peer review publications and the editorial process: buff.ly/3dw1txV @LosetoLisa

Check out this study on behavioral responses of tagged beluga whales to ships in the Pacific Arctic, including many researchers working on AN projects @jackie_dawson @LosetoLisa, @wdhalliday, Shannon Mcphee, Luke Storrie and Nigel Hussey. Learn more here; bit.ly/3rvorZs

@Marianne_Fa @ArcticScienceJ I’m happy to give the presentation again!

Don't miss our EIC @LosetoLisa tomorrow, discussing ethical practices for #Indigenous participation in publishing & peer review #CEW2022 #ecotoxcan

For better science, increase Indigenous participation in publishing. As co-editor-in-chief of the journal Arctic Science, Lisa Loseto is looking at ways to increase Indigenous representation in scientific publishing. Read more here: ow.ly/Vr2Y50HrjFS

So excited to add a diverse group of #ECRs to the @ArcticScienceJ editorial board. Please apply if you are interested in gaining experience in #peerreview, have ideas for new initiatives, & want to help shape the future of the journal! @ArcticNetSA @ACUNSAUCEN @PolarImpact

@PeteShoniker @LiveItearth We believe they may be similar to humans, the oldest whale aged (that I'm aware of) was in its 80s! Most I've encountered are in their 20s

What is the average life span of a beluga? @liveitearth #liveitearth #liveitoceans

@PeteShoniker @LiveItearth Its interesting we see different populations have different size ranges. The eastern beaufort sea belugas are some of the longest, and those in Hudson bay are a bit smaller...and maybe rounder. I've measured whales close to 5metres...(16 feet), and hunters speak of 18foot whales

How large do Beluga whales get? @liveitearth #liveitearth #liveitoceans

@Mrsmills62 @LiveItearth All animals have unique adaptations to their environment and home. Belugas have think blubber to keep them warm, no dorsal fin to get stuck in ice (or lose heat from), and the have great ways to search for food with ecolocation...and other adaptations we havent full explored

“How do belugas survive in the arctic?” Grade 2 @LiveItearth #liveitoceans

@LiveItearth it ranges with the whale size and is a few centimeters or a bit bigger than a golf ball.

@LiveItearth Great question, we don't know...we hope Wilma made it back home to her family. We do think she was from the St. Lawrence River Estuary

@vida_ferris Interestingly...it seems while baby belugas are in their mommy's (uterus) they grow 'baby' teeth, but they never erupt our come out of their gums...instead they are kept within jaw and eventually are re-abosbed.

@KjhMcdonald Great question...I will let our other beluga expert take this one @Marine_Valeria

@vida_ferris It can range, but a max of 40 teeth. Teeth are often used to age belugas!

@vida_ferris They swim and do spend a lot of time diving, and time at the surface to breathe...so they actively move like we would swimming to different depths...but of course are adapted to do maneuver in water

@sd58kengard @LiveItearth A lot of animals in the arctic are white and we believe it has to do with hiding from your predators by looking like the environment around you...
