Tracking narwhals – November 2012

November 13

Two of the narwhals have struck out fast along the coast, now off Auyittuq National Park in southeast Baffin Island.

But the sea ice is way further north – well behind the seasonal norm in the past 30 years.  There is likely a lot of latent/residual surface heat in the water column. Maybe killer whales are still in the area.  Maybe the narwhal need to get to the best area to feed on turbot ?
