• Home on the range: spatial ecology of loggerhead turtles in Atlantic waters of the USA (2011, background): “Reports of overwintering turtles have been returned for loggerhead and green turtles for the Atlantic, Mediterranean and Pacific oceans (Felger et al., 1976; Carr et al., 1980; Ogren & McVea, 1995; Godley et al., 2002; Hochscheid et al., 2005, 2007; Hawkes et al., 2007).”
• Is climate change affecting the population dynamics of the endangered Pacific loggerhead sea turtle (2008, background): “Moreover, during the winter it is possible that loggerheads in certain areas may show prolonged winter quiescence (Hochscheid et al., 2007) and so the role of changing water temperatures in driving this behaviour and its wider impact on reproductive success needs to be considered in terms of climate”
• What makes marine turtles go: A review of metabolic rates and their consequences (2008, methodology): “Generally, marine turtles tend to dive within their aerobic limits and probably only utilize anaerobic metabolism under duress (Lutz and Bentley, 1985; Lutcavage and Lutz, 1991, 1997; Hochscheid et al., 2007b).”
• Important areas at sea for adult loggerhead sea turtles in the Mediterranean Sea: satellite tracking corroborates findings from potentially biased sources (2008, background): “Recent research in the Mediterranean has indeed shown that aerobic resting dives may be a common over-wintering strategy for loggerhead sea turtles (Hochscheid et al. 2005, 2007).”
• Mediterranean sea turtles: current knowledge and priorities for conservation and research (2018, unknown): “2004) and the southwestern coasts of Italy (Hochscheid et al. 2007) (Fig.”
• Satellite Tracking Sea Turtles: Opportunities and Challenges to Address Key Questions (2018, background): “, 2007), patterns of inactivity/winter dormancy (Broderick et al., 2007; Hawkes et al., 2007; Hochscheid et al., 2007) and the timing of migration (Schofield et al.”
• Movement patterns of marine turtles in the Mediterranean Sea: a review (2014, background): “8°C, adopting a specific behavioural strategy known as overwintering (Hochscheid et al. 2007).”
• BIODIVERSITY RESEARCH: Fidelity to foraging sites, consistency of migration routes and habitat modulation of home range by sea turtles (2010, background): “Hence, for the two coastal males, rather than a transition to winter hibernation, they may have continued foraging, adjusting levels in response to local temperature conditions (Hochscheid et al., 2007).”
• Satellite tracking of sea turtles: Where have we been and where do we go next? (2008, background): “…experienced by individual animals has facilitated a growing understanding of the physiological ecology of overwintering (Godley et al. 2002, Hochscheid et al. 2005, 2007, Broderick et al. 2007, Hawkes et al. 2007) and also the conditions that may trigger migration (Sherrill-Mix et al. in…”
