Over 25 years ago the first satellite tracking studies of sea turtles were published. The
technology and attachment methods have now come of age with long-term tracks over a …

Bycatch remains one of the most significant fisheries issues in the world and its monitoring
and reporting is now expected in many regions. This paper provides a global synthesis of …

Incidental catch of nontarget species (bycatch) is a major barrier to ecological and economic
sustainability in marine capture fisheries. Key to mitigating bycatch is an understanding of …

Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) are known to display a wide range of movement
patterns during the different stages of their life cycle, but empirical information to document …

Harnessing the economic potential of the oceans is key to combating poverty, enhancing
food security, and strengthening economies. But the concomitant risk of intensified resource …

Many broadly distributed migratory species exhibit fidelity to fine-scale areas that support
vital life history requirements (eg, resource acquisition, reproduction). Thus, such areas are …

Formulating management strategies for mobile marine species is challenging, as knowledge
is required of distribution, density, and overlap with putative threats. As a step towards …

Abstract Knowledge of life-history parameters of marine turtles is essential for understanding
their ecology and for effective conservation. The leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) …

Oceanographic processes that aggregate prey and facilitate the transfer of energy to higher
trophic levels often influence marine predator-prey interactions. Buoyant discharge from the …

The demand for food resources is growing worldwide and, in this context, marine
extractivism provides a source of protein and food security of great importance for human …
