This chapter will focus on the coastal and pelagic ocean habitats of leatherback turtles
(Dermochelys coriacea) in terms of migration, foraging, physiology, and dive behavior with …

Leatherback sea turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, undertake broad oceanic movements. While
satellite telemetry has been used to investigate the post-nesting behaviour of female turtles …

Like other cheloniid sea turtle species, loggerheads (Caretta caretta) are long-lived, late-
maturing animals. Loggerheads spend the majority of their lives in a marine environment …

The biology of the endangered leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) at sea is poorly
understood. As research has been almost exclusively limited to studies of nesting females …

Leatherback sea turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, undertake broad oceanic movements while
traveling between breeding and foraging areas. While satellite telemetry has been used to …

Few data are available on the movements and behavior of immature Atlantic loggerhead
sea turtles (Caretta caretta) from their seasonal neritic foraging grounds within the western …

While our understanding of the early oceanic developmental stage of sea turtles has
improved markedly over recent decades, the spatial context for this life history stage remains …

Adult sea turtles are among the largest living reptiles and the only reptiles that exhibit long-
distance migrations that rival those of terrestrial and avian vertebrates. Many details of these …

New technologies now allow us to answer some standing questions regarding the life
history of Pacific loggerhead turtles. Mark and recapture data, combined with results from …

The movements and behavior of nine female leatherback sea turtles, Dermochelys coriacea
(L.) were monitored for up to 370 days from their nesting beaches on the Caribbean island of …
