have been documented at multiple nesting sites throughout the Pacific. The western Pacific …

The foraging ecology of endangered olive ridley Lepidochelys olivacea sea turtles is poorly
known in Australia, with only a limited knowledge of their foraging distribution inferred from …

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 …

The use of satellite tracking for the fundamental and applied study of marine turtles began in
the 1980s but has undergone rapid growth in recent years. To provide a background against …
