• Green turtle nesting on Trindade Island, Brazil: abundance, trends, and biometrics (2011, background): “…green turtle populations, such as Tortuguero, Costa Rica; Ascension Island, UK; Aves Island, Venezuela; Suriname; and Florida, USA (Schulz 1975, Bjorndal & Carr 1989, Penaloza 2000, Godley et al. 2001, 2002, Seminoff 2004, Troëng & Rankin 2005, Broderick et al. 2006, Chaloupka et al. 2008).”
• Unravelling migratory connectivity in marine turtles using multiple methods (2010, background): “As a result, the species is of high conservation concern, although some popula- tions are rebounding following the reduction of direct take (Balazs & Chaloupka 2004, Tröeng & Rankin 2005; Broderick et al. 2006).”
• Global analysis of satellite tracking data shows that adult green turtles are significantly aggregated in Marine Protected Areas (2012, background): “The largely herbivorous green turtle (Chelonia mydas) has a circumglobal distribution in tropical and subtropical regions and after centuries of intensive harvest, some populations are recovering under increased protection (Broderick et al., 2006; Chaloupka et al., 2008).”
• Encouraging outlook for recovery of a once severely exploited marine megaherbivore (2008, background): “Moreover, these 14 rookeries comprise the world’s largest green turtle rookeries such as Raine Island in the northern Great Barrier Reef (Fig. 1c), Tortuguero in Costa Rica (Fig. 2b) and Ascension Island in the mid-Atlantic ( Broderick et al ., 2006 ).”
• Conservation status of the loggerhead sea turtle in Brazil: an encouraging outlook (2007, background): “However, it has been shown that some seriously depleted sea turtle populations can recover quite quickly following protection from human exploitation (Dutton et al. 2005, Broderick et al. 2006, Chaloupka & Balazs 2007).”
• So excellent a fishe: a global overview of legal marine turtle fisheries (2014, background): “tributed significantly to the global decline in marine turtle populations (Lewis, 1940; Stoddart, 1980; Jackson, 1997; National Marine Fisheries Service & U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 1998; Broderick et al., 2006; Cornelius et al., 2007)”
