Rising chlorophyll a (Chl-a) concentrations (green) and decreasing summer sea surface temperatures (SST, blue) measured within northern Labrador ringed seal home ranges from 2002 to 2020 (A). A decrease in Chl-a concentrations was found in years with greater SST (B). Ringed seals fed more pelagically (δ13C) with lower SST and higher Chl-a concentrations (C,D).
