Leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) travel thousands of kilometres between
temperate feeding and tropical breeding/over-wintering grounds, with adult turtles able to …

During their offshore movements, leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, associate
frequently with ocean currents and mesoscale oceanographic features such as eddies, and …

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

Leatherback turtles Dermochelys coriacea spend most of their life in oceanic environments,
whose physical and biological characteristics are primarily forged by sea current circulation …

The open-sea movements of marine animals are affected by the drifting action of currents
that, if not compensated for, can produce non-negligible deviations from the correct route …

Understanding high-use areas for highly migratory species and their movements within
these areas may provide insight into behaviors such as foraging and mating. In the Western …

Understanding the movement ecology of migratory species is critical to identifying key
components of their behavior that may overlap with anthropogenic activity (Lascelles et al …

Background Sea turtles are long-distance migrants with considerable behavioural plasticity
in terms of migratory patterns, habitat use and foraging sites within and among populations …

Marine megafauna tend to migrate vast distances, often crossing national borders and pose
a significant challenge to managers. This challenge is particularly acute in the Pacific, which …

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 …
