Visiting Tromso, polar bear demography

My post-doc Sarah Cubaynes and I went to visit our colleague Jon Aars in Tromso, Norway. We are working together on the demography of polar bears using an amazing dataset the Norwegian Polar Institute has been collecting for decades. It was also the opportunity to catch up with Nigel (Gilles) Yoccoz who’s being very helpful with this project. Jon took us fishing; I was luckier than with fly-fishing ;-)
