Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) provides a process that uses spatial data and models to
evaluate environmental, social, economic, cultural, and management trade-offs when siting …

Globally, sea turtle research and conservation efforts are underway to identify important high-
use areas where these imperiled individuals may be resident for weeks to months to years …

Satellite tracking of animals is very widespread across a range of marine, freshwater, and
terrestrial taxa. Despite the high cost of tags and the advantages of long deployments, the …

Multi-species assemblages can help identify key resources in their habitat by evaluating
how they are partitioning their resources. Here we used the isotopic niche of loggerhead …

Estimates of parameters that affect population dynamics, including the size at which
individuals reproduce, are crucial for efforts aimed at understanding how imperiled species …

Human use of oceans has dramatically increased in the 21st century. Sea turtles are
vulnerable to anthropogenic stressors in the marine environment because of lengthy …

Abstract Globally, Marine Protected Areas are an important tool in the conservation of large
marine vertebrates. Recent studies have highlighted the use of protected areas by imperiled …

Population abundance data are often used to define species' conservation status.
Abundance of marine turtles is typically estimated using nesting beach monitoring data such …

Unusual environmental events can push marine animals outside their physiological
tolerances through changes in trophic and/or thermal conditions. Such events typically …

To characterize the movements and habitat use of juvenile green turtles (Chelonia mydas) in
benthic developmental habitat, we deployed Fastloc-GPS-enabled satellite transmitters on …
