  3. The Bering Sea Project Understanding Ecosystem Processes in the Bering Sea • In partnership with North Pacific Research Board and The national Science Foundation. • The Bering Sea Project has many scientists working to understand how the Bering Sea Ecosystem works and how Climate Change is effected.

  4. Connection with Bering Sea The Bering Sea Project has scientists like Tom Van Pelt studying the connections of Marine birds, other marine life, and how humans have sustained the Bering Sea.

  5. Bering Sea Expedition Tom Van Pelt and other scientists went on an expedition in 2009 to study the Bering Sea ecosystem

  8. Results In 2005 Tom Van Pelt led a team searching for the rare sea bird called Kittlitz's Murrelet. Red: Is where they looked for birds from boat. Blue: Is where they saw the bird and size of dot is how many sea Murrelets there were. This graph shows an understanding of how wind direction and cross-self transport. It shows how the process of the Bering Sea ecosystem works.

  9. Bering Sea Tom Van Pelt has brought researchers together for more information on the Bering Sea Project. The Bering Sea Project has different partnerships to understand the ecosystem of the Bering Sea. Tom Van Pelt also studies marine birds and how they are involved in the Bering Sea ecosystem.
