• Behaviour analysis of the loggerhead sea turtle Caretta caretta from direct in-water observation (2006, background): “The recent development of animal-borne cameras has given researchers of marine vertebrates, such as sea turtles, the opportunity to observe and confirm the underwater behaviour (Davis et al. 1999, Heithaus et al. 2002, Reina et al. 2005, Hays et al. 2006).”
• Delayed ontogenic dietary shift and high levels of omnivory in green turtles (Chelonia mydas) from the NW coast of Africa (2009, background): “1998), Australia (Heithaus et al. 2002), Japan (Hatase et al.”
• Novel GPS tracking of sea turtles as a tool for conservation management (2007, background): “For example, correlated random walk models, which randomly draw step lengths from the measured step-length frequency distribution, may provide a more refined test of whether animals are moving randomly (e.g. Heithaus et al., 2002a).”
• Ecology of Hawksbill Turtles, Eretmochelys imbricata, on a Western Caribbean Foraging Ground (2009, background): “In order to study behavior, increasingly sophisticated technologies—such as video-linked time depth recorders (Heithaus et al. 2002; Seminoff et al. 2006), multi-sensor archival tags (Wilson et al. 2008), and inter-mandibular angle sensors (Hochscheid et al. 2005; Houghton et al. 2008)—are being…”
• The ecological importance of intact top-predator populations: a synthesis of 15 years of research in a seagrass ecosystem (2012, background): “…were regular recipients of tiger shark-inflicted injury (e.g. ,74% of bottlenose dolphins, Heithaus 2001a; ,25% of female loggerhead turtles, ,50% of male loggerhead turtles, Heithaus et al. 2002b, 2005), suggesting that these species at least had incentive to invest in safety from predators.”
