- Putting Eggs in One Basket: Ecological and Evolutionary Hypotheses for Variation in Oviposition-Site Choice (2010, background): “The risks to nests of many beach-nesting reptiles, such as sea turtles, commonly differ depending on a nest’s location: Nests closer to water are at highest risk of inundation or egg loss due to erosion, whereas eggs farther from water are at highest risk of desiccation (Kamel & Mrosovsky 2004).”
- Repeatability of nesting preferences in the hawksbill sea turtle, Eretmochelys imbricata, and their fitness consequences (2005, background): “site choice in turtles (Janzen & Morjan 2001: r Z 0.18; Kamel & Mrosovsky 2004: r Z 0.18) and higher than some of those obtained in studies that have focused on other repeatable traits.”
