Ethogram of immature green turtles: behavioral strategies for somatic growth in large marine herbivores
Animals are assumed to obtain/conserve energy effectively to maximise their fitness, which
manifests itself in a variety of behavioral strategies. For marine animals, however, these …

A computational framework for studying energetics and resource management in sea turtle migration and autonomous systems
Sea turtles complete migrations across vast distances, covering entire ocean basins. To
track these migrations, satellite tracking tags are attached to their shells. The impact of these …
