• The Ecology and Migrations of Sea Turtles 8. Tests of the Developmental Habitat Hypothesis (2011, background): “To reflect this Casale et al. (2008) proposed a relaxed life history model for Caretta, which may be more prevalent in the Mediterranean than western Atlantic Ocean.”
• Stable isotopes confirm a foraging dichotomy in juvenile loggerhead sea turtles (2010, result): “In contrast to long-maintained dogmas about ontogenetic habitat shifts in immature sea turtles, recent studies have revealed that these patterns can be highly variable, as the oceanic-to-neritic shift is facultative for sea turtle species, life stages, and populations around the world (Witzell, 2002”
• BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH: Fidelity to foraging sites, consistency of migration routes and habitat modulation of home range by sea turtles (2010, background): “Both male and female sea turtles spend extended periods of time at foraging sites which increases their vulnerability to fisheries bycatch (Lewison et al., 2004; Casale et al., 2008).”
• Mediterranean sea turtles: current knowledge and priorities for conservation and research (2018, unknown): “The average ASM for the Mediterranean loggerhead population has been estimated to be 25 yr (range: 21−34 yr) using the mean values of 8 age-at-length relationships obtained by the above studies applied to a size at maturity of 80 cm CCL (Casale & Heppell 2016).”
• Revisiting the ontogenetic shift paradigm: The case of juvenile green turtles in the SW Atlantic (2012, background): “The decision of remaining in a habitat would depend therefore on the successful or unsuccessful experience of the turtle, on the basis of environmental parameters that are still poorly understood (Casale et al., 2008).”
• Movement patterns of marine turtles in the Mediterranean Sea: a review (2014, background): “The numbers of satellite-tracked large juveniles (> 40 cm CCL) in the Mediterranean and the study areas are summarised in Table I.”
• Satellite tracking large numbers of individuals to infer population level dispersal and core areas for the protection of an endangered species (2013, background): “The dispersal directions were grouped into five ‘regions’ of the Mediterranean Sea: (1) Region A, north, towards Amvrakikos and the Adriatic, (2) Region B, south-west, towards Tunisia (Gulf of Gabes) and Libya, (3) Region C, the vicinity of Zakynthos (the Ionian Sea), (4) Region D, to the Aegean Sea”
