Marine turtles and IUCN Red Listing: A review of the process, the pitfalls, and novel assessment approaches (2008, background): “For example, in a review of population trends for olive ridley turtles in Orissa, Shanker et al. (2004) examined over 20 published sources of population data, and found little concordance between published values, no account of methods, no estimates of variance, systematic errors, and in summary,…”
Field lethal incubation temperature of olive ridley sea turtle Lepidochelys olivacea embryos at a mass nesting rookery (2010, unknown): “Large arribadas surpassing 50 000 females per event are known to occur at Gahirmatha and Rushikulya in India (Pandav et al. 1994, Shanker et al. 2004), at La Escobilla in Mexico (Márquez-M. et al. 1996), and at Ostional in Costa Rica (Richard & Hughes 1972), with smaller arribadas occurring…”
Nesting biology and conservation of the olive ridley sea turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) in Brazil, 1991/1992 to 2002/2003 (2007, background): “…mortality of breeding adults, believed to be caused by shrimp trawling around the Sergipe coast, could play a role in an explanation for the apparent decrease in CCL, as has been suggested by Shanker et al. (2003) with regard to the decrease in CCL of olive ridleys nesting in Orissa, India.”
Satellite Tracking Sea Turtles: Opportunities and Challenges to Address Key Questions (2018, background): “This sort of information is often impossible to collect without telemetry because of the logistical difficulties of patrolling long sections of beach by foot, or if nesting densities are particularly high (Shanker et al., 2004; Marco et al., 2011; Valverde et al., 2012).”
