White Sea Traps Seal Pups
According to reports, some 200,000 young seals face starvation after becoming trapped on ice in the White Sea of northern Russia. The seals, born last year, should have floated on the ice out to the nearby Barents Sea, but the ice this year has remained stuck to the shores of the White Sea.

White Sea Animation: Zoom into region on 04/04/2001 showing trapped ice in the White Sea. Cut to highlighted coastlines. Cut to coastlines with annotations. Cut to 04/01/2000 SeaWiFS data for comparison.    White Sea Animation: Zoom into region on 04/04/2001 showing trapped ice in the White Sea. Cut to highlighted coastlines.
