The influence of nest incubation temperatures on carapace shape and morphological traits
of Leatherback Turtle (Dermochelys coriacea (Vandelli, 1761)) hatchlings incubated in two …

Incubation temperatures, sex ratio and hatching success of leatherback turtles (Dermochelys
coriacea) in two protected hatcheries on the central Mexican coast of the Eastern Tropical …

The journey of Leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea (Vandelli, 1761)) hatchlings from nest to
the sea is a vulnerable life-history stage. Studies have shown that nest incubation …

Global climate patterns are shifting due to anthropogenic causes, putting pressure on many
species that are unable to adapt to such rapid changes. Sea turtle clutches, for example …

Elevated incubation temperatures of sea turtle nests decrease hatching success and alter
the resulting hatchlings' morphology. There is an absence of studies assessing the …

We analyzed relative abundance of nesting Olive Ridley Turtles, Lepidochelys olivacea, on
El Naranjo beach, Mexico during 1993–2010, as well as seasonal and spatial distribution of …

In Mexico, studies about the behavior of the temperatures inside the incubation chambers of
marine turtle nests are scarce. In this study the incubation temperature in nests of a …

Leatherback turtles Dermochelys coriacea are experiencing population declines due to
various anthropogenic threats. Beaches play a crucial role in the survival of sea turtle …

Clutches of leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, have lower hatching success than
those of other sea turtles, but causes of high embryonic mortality are unknown. We …

Under natural conditions sea turtle eggs are subjected to a changing thermal environment,
but little is known about the effect of these temperature fluctuations during incubation on the …
