#PolarBears in the #BarentsSea are staying fat despite rapid sea #ice loss
#Arctic #bears may be surviving by shifting to new food sources
When #seaice goes away, bears get thinner. If bears in a population are losing fat, that can be an early warning population will decline.
Researchers are interested in polar bears living on #Svalbard because relationship between sea ice and fat loss should be strong. Polar bears there shouldn’t have much fat.

No sea ice, no problem for these Barents Sea bears — for now
Studying close to 800 bears over nearly 25 years shows that polar bear populations in the rapidly warming Barents Sea, off the northern coasts of Norway and Russia, are doing better than polar bears in other parts of the Arctic.

The last evening in the farthest place. In the middle of nowhere.

Апошні вечар у дупе свету. Было файна.

While the weather is mild, there is a chance to have fun. We went to "the end of road". But what was behind it? Let's discover later. Almost Teriberka, in the middle of nowhere. August 2025.

Пакуль надвор'е спрыяе, ёсць магчымасць штосьці паглядзець. Мы пайшлі да "канца ўсіх дарог". Але што было за ім? Даведаемся пазней.
Амаль Цярыберка, у дупе свету, жнівень 2025.

What has happened over there? Any idea?

Што там здарылася? Ёсць якія-небудзь ідэі?

Now it's better to hurry before all the camping places are taken. But the road doesn't allow to exceed 20 km/h. Actually the first place was not good enough. A very strong wind shook the tent all night. The weather was rainy until 3 PM.

Цяпер лепш паспяшацца, пакуль не занялі ўсе месцы для кемпінгу. Але дарога не дазваляе перавышаць 20 км/г. Насамрэч, першае выбранае месца было ня вельмі добрым. Моцны вецер хістаў палатку ўсю ноч. Надвор'е было такое сабе. Да трох галзін апоўдні ішоў дождж.
