After emerging from nests, neonate sea turtles entering the water are thought to orientate
away from shore using wave cues to guide them out to sea. Artificial light may interfere with …

We examined the probability of past sea turtle nesting as a function of light intensity and
patterns of temporal changes of light along nesting beaches in the Egyptian Red Sea …
