This map from John Nelson at Esri examines the migrations of one such animal: the northern Pacific blue whale objectives of this study are to use location data provided by satellite-linked tags to determine how bowhead whales' migration behavior and distribution during the 2020s have changed since 2006-2019 in response to declines in sea ice, different. (100 feet long and 200 tons!) They can be seen in open waters of the northern and eastern portions of the Gulf of Alaska in July and August before wintering in Mexico, Central America, and the western and central Pacific.

They can be seen in open waters of the northern and eastern portions of the Gulf of Alaska in July and August before wintering in Mexico, Central America, and the western and central Pacific. For beluga whales, recent cooperative research has provided deeper insights into the relative distribution, movements, and behavior of two distinct populations.

Whale Migration Routes. Where fall once signaled the beginning of southern migrations, the spring welcomes in new life and returning residents as the ice melts Some belugas and most bowhead whales continue on their >1,500 mile (>2,500 km) migration north of Alaska to the Canadian Beaufort Sea for the summer
