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 …

A biologist's guide to assessing ocean currents: a review
We review how ocean currents are measured (in both Eulerian and Lagrangian
frameworks), how they are inferred from satellite observations, and how they are simulated …

Global research priorities for sea turtles: informing management and conservation in the 21st century
Over the past 3 decades, the status of sea turtles and the need for their protection to aid
population recovery have increasingly captured the interest of government agencies, non …

Robust state–space modeling of animal movement data
ID Jonsen, JM Flemming, RA Myers - Ecology, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Remotely sensed tracking data collected on animal movement is vastly underutilized due to
a lack of statistical tools for appropriate analysis. Features of such data that make analysis …

Climate change and marine turtles
Marine turtles occupy a wide range of terrestrial and marine habitats, and many aspects of
their life history have been demonstrated to be closely tied to climatic variables such as …

Identifying leatherback turtle foraging behaviour from satellite telemetry using a switching state-space model
ID Jonsen, RA Myers, MC James - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2007 - int-res.com
Identifying the foraging habitat of marine predators is vital to understanding the ecology of
these species and for their management and conservation. Foraging habitat for many …

[HTML][HTML] Pan-Atlantic leatherback turtle movements
GC Hays, JDR Houghton, AE Myers - Nature, 2004 - nature.com
The overall extent of habitat use by leatherback turtles in the North Atlantic, and hence their
possible interactions with longline fisheries, is unknown. Here we use long-term satellite …

High-use oceanic areas for Atlantic leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) as identified using satellite telemetered location and dive information
SA Eckert - Marine Biology, 2006 - Springer
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 …

Where leatherback turtles meet fisheries
S Ferraroli, JY Georges, P Gaspar, YL Maho - Nature, 2004 - nature.com
The dramatic worldwide decline in populations of the leatherback turtle (Dermochelys
coriacea) is largely due to the high mortality associated with their interaction with fisheries …

Flexible foraging movements of leatherback turtles across the North Atlantic Ocean
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 …
