[HTML][HTML] A review of how the biology of male sea turtles may help mitigate female-biased hatchling sex ratio skews in a warming climate
In a warming climate, male sea turtles may become increasingly rare due to temperature-
dependent sex determination with females being produced at warmer temperatures. Hence …
