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

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 …

Some marine species have been shown to target foraging at particular hotspots of high prey
abundance. However, we show here that in the year after a nesting season, female …

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

Efforts to model populations of the leatherback sea turtle Dermochelys coriacea and design
appropriate conservation measures for this endangered species have been hindered by a …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Leatherback turtles are the largest and widest ranging turtle species, and spend much of
their time in the offshore pelagic environment. However, the high seas have thus far …

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 …
