Satellite tracking and stable isotope analysis highlight differential recruitment among foraging areas in green turtles
Identifying links between breeding and non-breeding sites in migratory animals is an
important step in understanding their ecology. Recognising the relative importance of …

[HTML][HTML] Linking loggerhead locations: using multiple methods to determine the origin of sea turtles in feeding grounds
Many marine megavertebrate taxa, including sea turtles, disperse widely from their hatching
or birthing locations but display natal homing as adults. We used flipper tagging, satellite …

[HTML][HTML] Spatial distribution and residency of green and loggerhead sea turtles using coastal reef habitats in southern Mozambique
Sea turtles spend the majority of their immature and adult lives in foraging grounds, yet few
studies have examined their abundance and condition in these areas when compared to …

Individual specialization and behavioral plasticity in a long-lived marine predator
Individual specialization in vertebrates is often related to morphological variability, but can
also reflect a diversity of trajectories during the learning sensitive period in early life. In both …

Growth rates of adult sea turtles
Indeterminate growth, ie growth that persists throughout life, is common in long-lived
reptiles. Because fecundity and body size tend to be correlated in such species, individuals …
