Schematic of habitat partitioning for five species of baleen whales in the Pacific Arctic. Bowhead whales feed on pelagic and epibenthic zooplankton from the northern Bering to Beaufort Sea (blue); grey whales feed on pelagic, epibenthic and benthic prey from the northern Bering through the Chukchi Sea (orange); humpback, fin and minke whales feed on zooplankton and forage fishes primarily in the Bering and southern Chukchi seas (yellow).
