• Overwintering behaviour in sea turtles: dormancy is optional (2007, methodology): “The depth range used by the turtles allowed benthic foraging, while the water surface was within reach at any time in less than 2 min (travelling at an average vertical descent/ascent rate of 0.28 m s–1 (Houghton et al. 2002)).”
• THE IMPLICATIONS OF LUNG-REGULATED BUOYANCY CONTROL FOR DIVE DEPTH AND DURATION (2004, background): “Hardshelled turtles tend to be relatively shallow divers, rarely diving deeper than 25 m (e.g., van Dam and Diez 1996, Hochscheid et al. 1999, Houghton et al. 2002).”
• Novel GPS tracking of sea turtles as a tool for conservation management (2007, background): “…Hays et al., 2004b; Sale et al., 2006) to coastal foraging or breeding grounds, details about behaviour and habitat use at these regions of seasonal residency remain limited (Heithaus et al., 2002a, b; Houghton et al., 2002; Seminoff et al., 2002; HopkinsMurphy et al., 2003; Yasuda and Arai, 2005).”
• Post-nesting movements and submergence patterns of loggerhead marine turtles in the Mediterranean assessed by satellite tracking (2003, unknown): “…was complimented by a detailed study of diving behaviour in the internesting period of two adult loggerhead turtles nesting in Northern Cyprus (Houghton et al., 2002) and an analysis of direct observations of the behaviour of four adult male loggerhead turtles in a nearshore foraging ground…”
• Behavioural polymorphism in one of the world’s largest populations of loggerhead sea turtles Caretta caretta (2010, background): “…e tu rt le r en es te d a ft er 1 2 Ju ly Rees et al.: Behaviour of loggerheads from Oman Estimating internesting interval and clutch frequency Time-depth recorder studies have shown that sea turtles become more active in the few days before a subsequent nesting event (e.g. Houghton et al. 2002).”
