Abstract Knowledge of demographic processes and life history strategies is necessary for
the conservation and management of endangered sea turtle populations, but it is difficult to …

The study of marine turtle biology has been greatly advanced by the application of molecular
genetic techniques, which allow near-unobservable processes to be studied indirectly …

Within the Hawaiian archipelago, green turtle nesting has occurred almost exclusively in the
northwestern Hawaiian Islands, mainly at French Frigate Shoals (FFS), however an increase …

Hawksbill sea turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) from the Hawaiian archipelago form a small
and genetically isolated population, consisting of only a few tens of individuals breeding …

Marine turtles migrate across long distances, exhibit complex life histories, and occupy
habitats that are difficult to observe. These factors present substantial challenges to …

For species of conservation concern, knowledge of key life‐history and demographic
components, such as the number and sex ratio of breeding adults, is essential for accurate …

Understanding species' mating systems provides important information about their ecology,
life history, and behavior. Direct observations of mating behaviors can be challenging, but …

This study builds upon the current understanding of green turtle population genetic structure
in the Pacific that has largely been based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), by examining …

Species that display temperature-dependent sex determination are at risk as a result of
increasing global temperatures. For marine turtles, high incubation temperatures can skew …

The concept of 'effective population size'(N e), which quantifies how quickly a population will
lose genetic variability, is one of the most important contributions of theoretical evolutionary …
