- Spatial and temporal variability in somatic growth of green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) resident in the Hawaiian Archipelago (2004, background): “…for the Hawaiian green turtle stock is consistent with the range of age-at-maturity estimates for several foraging-ground populations comprising the southern Great Barrier Reef green turtle genetic stock, which also spans a wide geographic range (Limpus and Chaloupka 1997; Chaloupka et al. 2004).”
- Encouraging outlook for recovery of a once severely exploited marine megaherbivore (2008, background): “2004), perhaps because the long generation time of green turtles (Bjorndal et al ., 2000; Chaloupka et al ., 2004) acts as a buffer against loss of genetic diversity (Hailer et al ., 2006).”
- Estimates of sex- and age-class-specific survival probabilities for a southern Great Barrier Reef green sea turtle population (2005, methodology): “On the other hand, sexspecific differences in somatic growth behaviour for immature sGBR green turtles form the same population have been shown, resulting in sexual dimorphism in adult body size ( Chaloupka et al. 2004 ).”
- Estimation of age at maturation and growth of Atlantic green turtles (Chelonia mydas) using skeletochronology (2010, background): “Variability in growth rates among foraging grounds has been reported for green turtles in Hawaii (Balazs and Chaloupka 2004), within the southern Great Barrier Reef genetic stock (Chaloupka et al. 2004), and in Florida (Kubis et al. 2009).”
- Cause-specific temporal and spatial trends in green sea turtle strandings in the Hawaiian Archipelago (1982–2003) (2008, methodology): “Width of ISLAND categories in (d) are proportional to sample size with 95% confidence interval for each category shown by top and bottom cross bars with expected response shown by middle cross bar Mar Biol (2008) 154:887–898 893 using laparoscopic examination of gonads (Chaloupka et al. 2004).”
- Ontogenetic changes in diet and habitat use in green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) life history (2008, background): “Once in an inshore feeding ground, green turtles often show high site fidelity to the region, returning to specific areas to forage, and generally only leaving as adults to make breeding migrations (Chaloupka et al. 2004, Limpus et al. 2005).”
- Variation in adult annual survival probability and remigration intervals of sea turtles (2007, background): “Sea turtle growth has been shown to be density dependent (Bjorndal et al. 2000), and both sea turtle growth and survival probability can vary between foraging grounds (Bjorndal et al. 2000; Balazs and Chaloupka 2004; Chaloupka et al. 2004a; Campbell and Lagueux 2005; Chaloupka and Limpus 2005).”
- Delayed ontogenic dietary shift and high levels of omnivory in green turtles (Chelonia mydas) from the NW coast of Africa (2009, background): “1999; Zug et al. 2001; Balazs and Chaloupka 2004; Chaloupka et al. 2004; Reich et al. 2007).”
- Diving at the shallow end: Green turtle behaviour in near-shore foraging habitat (2009, background): “However the micro-location of the slope remained uncertain because corresponding slopes in the substrate occurred in many parts of the site, as recorded in detailed bathymetry data from hydrographic surveys provided by Maritime Safety Queensland, Brisbane.”
