Eiders (Common and King Eider)
|
|
In July 2003 researchers from NERI and Canadian Wildlife Service captured
10 King Eiders and 16 Common Eiders in East Bay in North East Canada and
equipped the birds with satellite transmitters. In September the NERI researchers
were heading for West Greenland, where further 10 King Eiders and 7 Common
Eiders were captured at Disko Island and likewise equipped with satellite
transmitters.

Narwhales
|
|
In August 2003 scientists from NERI, Denmark and Department of Fisheries
and Oceans, Canada i Admiralty Inlet has mounted satellite transmitters
on 13 narwhales. |

Harbour porpoises
|
|
When the harbour porpoise is released into the water, it can be followed from the computer home at the office and on the Internet. Through the last 5 years we have followed more than 50 harbour porpoises in the Danish waters.

Mink Whale
|
|
5th of june researchers from The Department of Arctic Environment, NERI has mounted a satellite transmitter on the dorsal fin of a mink whale.
|
|
Harbour seals and grey seals
|
|
We are expecting to catch 10 seals every year until 2005 for satellite transmitter deployment. The results may reveal a change in feeding and breeding areas used by the seals as well as alternative haul-out sites.
|
|
Walrus
|
|
The aim of this study is to measure the energy expenditure and requirements of individual free-ranging walruses in eastern Greenland. In addition the program will reviel the quantitative importance of predation on the infauna by walruses in Young Sund as well as the relationship between primary production, benthic animals and walruses.

Greenland White-fronted goose
|
|
During 1996 - 1999 the migration strategies and staging areas in Iceland and West Greenland of the Greenland White-fronted goose were studied using small satellite transmitters.
|
|
Humpback whales
|
|
Six humpback whales were equipped with satellite transmitters in June 2000 at the eastern side of Fyllas Banks. The results show, that the humpback whales prefere depth less than 200 m.
|
|
The beluga
|
|
NERI have together with Greenland Institute of Natural Ressources and Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada contributed to the clarification of abundance and stock composition of belugas in the Baffin Bay through arrial surveys and satellite tracking.
|
|
Ringed seal
|
|
Eight seals were caught and equipped with satellite transmitters in 1996, 5 in 1997 og 10 in 1998. In the open water period daily migration distances were larger than during the fast ice period in winther.

|
White-fronted geese
|
|
This is a study conducted by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service in conjunction with the Institute of Arctic Biology, University of Alaska Fairbanks.
This study has been conducted over two years; 2001 and 2002. In 2001, 12 adult female white fronted geese were outfitted with implanted satellite transmitters, and in 2002, 20 females received transmitters. Separate web pages chart the progress of the cohorts marked in each year.

Black geese
|
|
A joint research effort involving the Canadian Wildlife Service (CWS), Washington Dept of Fish & Wildlife (WDFM), U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), and Washington Brant Foundation (WBF).
|
|
Ringing
|
|
Ringing has shown that Ospreys which breed in Britain spend the winter further south, usually in West Africa. However, little was known about the details of their migration until in 1999 the mystery began to be solved using the latest satellite technology.

|
Brent geese
|
|
Follow the Iceland light-bellied brent geese with satellite transmitters to Canada and back til Ireland on WWT´s homesite. DMU have sponsored a radiotransmitter.
