Trends in abundance of Arctic marine mammal Focal Ecosystem Components based on the most recent assessment for each recognized subpopulation of a species (red, declining trend; yellow, stable trend; green, increasing trend; grey, unknown trend). Number of subpopulations is given after species name. Each column is divided into equal segments, the sizes of which are not proportional to the size of the subpopulation. Ringed seal and bearded seal segments represent subspecies. Walrus segments represent subpopulations within subspecies. See Table 3.6.1 for details on abundance.

In 2023, was held a walrus science community workshop to explore how satellite imagery could support walrus monitoring and conservation. A key outcome was the recommendation to make the Atlantic walrus haul-out site database (developed as part of the Walrus from Space project) publicly accessible, with potential access restrictions to limit use by the tourism industry.
