Young sea turtles of the pelagic Sargassum-dominated drift community: habitat use, population density, and threats (2012, background): “Loggerhead sea turtles and 3 additional species are best known within coastal/neritic waters where older immature turtles and adults are found (Musick & Limpus 1997, McClellan & Read 2007, Mansfield et al. 2009).”
Somatic growth dynamics of West Atlantic hawksbill sea turtles: a spatio‐temporal perspective (2016, methodology): “Lifestages and movement patterns have been documented by flipper tags, satellite telemetry, and genetic “tags” (reviews in Bolten 2003, Meylan et al. 2011, Campbell 2014).”
Trophic ecology of a green turtle breeding population (2013, unknown): “The nesting population represents a mixture of individuals from a wide range of foraging sites, while each foraging aggregation is comprised of individuals that are relatively site-fixed (Campbell 2003, Bjorndal et al. 2005, Meylan et al. 2011).”
Are we working towards global research priorities for management and conservation of sea turtles (2016, background): “While strong focus remains on post-nesting fe - males (logistically more accessible; e.g. Griffin et al. 2013), more studies are investigating males and juveniles (Meylan et al. 2011, Arendt et al. 2012a,b, Casale et al. 2013, Mansfield et al. 2014; see also review by Jeffers & Godley 2016).”
