Hello MARMAM community: I am looking for information related to polar bear (Ursus maritimus) diving physiology; specifically information, data, and literature having to do with breathhold ability, duration submerged, and lengths of time swimming/diving. I have already found the following papers: -Stirling and van Meurs 2015 "Longest recorded underwater dive by a polar bear" -Lone et al. 2018 "Aquatic behaviour of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) in an increasingly ice-free Arctic" Any other information, unpublished work, or information would be welcome! Please email kelsey_potlock@fws.gov if you are able to assist! -- Thank you, Kelsey Potlock, M.Phil Marine Mammal Mitigation Ecologist Department of Marine Mammal Management U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service 1011 East Tudor Rd, MS 341 Anchorage, AK 99503-6199 Office: (+1) 907-786-3316
