While our understanding of the early oceanic developmental stage of sea turtles has
improved markedly over recent decades, the spatial context for this life history stage remains …

Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) use both oceanic and neritic habitats depending on
their life stage, eventually undertaking an ontogenetic shift. Juveniles likely start foraging in …

Few data are available on the movements and behavior of immature Atlantic loggerhead
sea turtles (Caretta caretta) from their seasonal neritic foraging grounds within the western …

The ability of captive-reared turtles to survive in the wild is not precisely known, nor are
movements of immature turtles in the open ocean. To provide information on these issues, a …

This chapter will focus on the coastal and pelagic ocean habitats of leatherback turtles
(Dermochelys coriacea) in terms of migration, foraging, physiology, and dive behavior with …

Background The juvenile stage of loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) can last for
decades. In the North Pacific Ocean, much is known about their seasonal movements in …

Much is still to be learned about the spatial ecology of foraging marine turtles, especially for
juveniles and adult males which have received comparatively little attention. Additionally …

Like other cheloniid sea turtle species, loggerheads (Caretta caretta) are long-lived, late-
maturing animals. Loggerheads spend the majority of their lives in a marine environment …

Hatchling marine turtles emerge at night from underground nests, enter the ocean, and swim
offshore. Here, we measured the intensity (hours swimming) and the temporal patterning …

Green turtles Chelonia mydas spend the first several years of life in oceanic nursery habitats
before recruiting to coastal developmental habitats as juveniles. Traditional green turtle life …
