• Diversity in trophic interactions of green sea turtles Chelonia mydas on a relatively pristine coastal foraging ground (2011, unknown): “For example, if individual home ranges encompass offshore (oceanic) habitats, which tend to be more carbon-deplete or other foraging grounds, then this may be able to account for some degree of variation in isotopic values (Reich et al. 2010, Vander Zanden et al. 2010).”
• Home on the range: spatial ecology of loggerhead turtles in Atlantic waters of the USA (2011, background): “, 2004) and suggested as one of several explanations for the gradient noted from stable isotope analysis of nesting turtles from Florida (Reich et al., 2010).”
• Movement patterns of marine turtles in the Mediterranean Sea: a review (2014, background): “2010), suggesting the possibility of epipelagic feeding in adults (Reich et al. 2010), the presence of seasonal migrations between different feeding and wintering areas (Hawkes et al.”
• Stable isotopes confirm a foraging dichotomy in juvenile loggerhead sea turtles (2010, background): “Ultimately, the variation in prey selection as well as the variation in food webs within and among habitats makes understanding feeding behaviors of marine turtles via SIA challenging (Reich et al., 2009).”
• Behavioural polymorphism in one of the world’s largest populations of loggerhead sea turtles Caretta caretta (2010, background): “We would note, however, that in a recent study of 12 loggerhead turtles in the USA (Hawkes et al. 2007), one female spent at least some time in oceanic habitats before returning to neritic habitats.”
