Predicting pack-ice seal occupancy of ice floes along the Western Antarctic Peninsula. by Michael J Wethington, Bilgecan Şen, Heather J Lynch

“…Further analysis between seal abundance and ice floe size identified pronounced shifts in the relationship between the number of seals hauled out and floe size, with a positive relationship up to approximately 50 m2 that diminishes for larger floe sizes and largely plateaus after 500 m2. These patterns provide information on pack-ice seal behavior and, when combined with methods to delineate individual ice floes, can yield predictions on the number of seals likely to be found in each satellite image scene. …”
