Are we working towards global research priorities for management and conservation of sea turtles (2016, background): “…Tomillo et al. 2014, 2015a,b; see Q3), with recent work suggesting that the embryos of some 349 Endang Species Res 31: 337–382, 2016 species may be more resilient to higher temperatures than previously thought and that their thermal tolerance may change as they grow (Howard et al. 2014, 2015).”
Sand temperatures for nesting sea turtles in the Caribbean: Implications for hatchling sex ratios in the face of climate change (2016, background): “Identifying the pivotal temperature for which both males and females are produced was a research priority (Howard et al., 2014) but now it is necessary to move beyond this and focus on the negative effects of high incubation temperatures, not limiting further research to the study of primary and…”
