BACKGROUND Global aquatic environments are changing profoundly as a result of human
actions; consequently, so too are the ways in which organisms are distributing themselves …

Climate change is a threat to marine turtles that is expected to affect all of their life stages. To
guide future research, we conducted a review of the most recent literature on this topic …

The rapid expansion of human activities threatens ocean-wide biodiversity. Numerous
marine animal populations have declined, yet it remains unclear whether these trends are …

We document a tendency for published estimates of population size in sea turtles to be
increasing rather than decreasing across the globe. To examine the population status of the …

Understanding how geography, oceanography, and climate have ultimately shaped marine
biodiversity requires aligning the distributions of genetic diversity across multiple taxa. Here …

Where conservation resources are limited and conservation targets are diverse, robust yet
flexible priority-setting frameworks are vital. Priority-setting is especially important for …

Global warming is affecting habitat quality and availability on our planet and some species
are predicted or are by now changing their distribution range. Here we show that …

Plastic marine debris pollution is rapidly becoming one of the critical environmental
concerns facing wildlife in the 21st century. Here we present a risk analysis for plastic …

Migratory marine species (MMS) include many of the world's most charismatic organisms
such as marine mammals, seabirds, turtles, sharks, and tuna. Many are now among the most …

To better understand dietary requirements, trophic shifts, and trophic interactions of the
threatened green turtle (Chelonia mydas), we conducted a comprehensive global review …
