We examined the effect of artificial light on the near shore trajectories of turtle hatchlings
dispersing from natal beaches. Green turtle (Chelonia mydas) hatchlings were tagged with …

The spread of artificial night lighting is increasingly acknowledged as a major threat to

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 …
