Satellite tracking in sea turtles: How do we find our way to the conservation dividends?
VF Jeffers, BJ Godley - Biological Conservation, 2016 - Elsevier
As species of conservation concern, sea turtles have historically been difficult to study
because of their elusive nature and extensive ranges, but improvements in telemetry have …
