• Trans-equatorial migration and habitat use by sooty shearwaters Puffinus griseus from the South Atlantic during the nonbreeding season (2012, background): “…zone also encompasses an abrupt north-to-south transition between sub-Arctic and sub-tropical waters with dynamic frontal regions (Polovina et al. 2001), and attracts a diversity of predatory marine vertebrates throughout the year (Kobayashi et al. 2008, Kappes et al. 2010, Block et al. 2011).”
• Movement patterns of marine turtles in the Mediterranean Sea: a review (2014, background): “Very little information is available on the movements of younger turtles during their pelagic developmental phase (but see Kobayashi et al. 2008; Howell et al. 2010; Mansfield et al. 2014), when in fact it is believed that they move over large oceanic areas (Bolten 2003).”
• Home on the range: spatial ecology of loggerhead turtles in Atlantic waters of the USA (2011, background): “…of migratory species and their persistent use or re-use of areas after seasonal migrations (e.g. James et al., 2005a,b; McMahon & Hays, 2006, Kobayashi et al., 2008; McPherson & Myers, 2009) is important for the effective management of large marine vertebrate species of conservation concern.”
• Goal navigation and island-finding in sea turtles (2008, background): “Perhaps still more ideas will come from improved techniques of relating movements of turtles to remotely sensed oceanographic and topographic data (Kobayashi et al., 2008-this issue).”
• Satellite tracking reveals a dichotomy in migration strategies among juvenile loggerhead turtles in the Northwest Atlantic (2009, background): “…height, frontal systems, and oceanic current vectors also likely inXuence the movements of loggerheads (Polovina et al. 2000; Witherington 2002; Luschi et al. 2003; Kobayashi et al. 2008) and other species of sea turtle including green (Chelonia mydas) (Pelletier et al. 2003; SeminoV et al. 2007).”
• Large‐scale movements and high‐use areas of western Pacific leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea (2011, background): “Leatherback ARS behavior in these areas was generally associated with low-CHL waters adjacent to high-CHL frontal regions, as previously identified for loggerhead turtles (Polovina et al. 2001, Kobayashi et al. 2008).”
