Fidelity and over-wintering of sea turtles
While fidelity to breeding sites is well demonstrated in marine turtles, emerging knowledge
of migratory routes and key foraging sites is of limited conservation value unless levels of …

A review of long‐distance movements by marine turtles, and the possible role of ocean currents
Sea turtle movements often occur in open‐sea unsheltered areas, and are therefore likely to
be influenced by major oceanographic processes. Only recently has work started to examine …
