Satellite tracking in sea turtles: How do we find our way to the conservation dividends?
VF Jeffers, BJ Godley - Biological Conservation, 2016 - Elsevier
As species of conservation concern, sea turtles have historically been difficult to study
because of their elusive nature and extensive ranges, but improvements in telemetry have …

Fidelity to foraging sites after long migrations
Patterns of animal movement associated with foraging lie at the heart of many ecological
studies and often animals face decisions of staying in an environment they know versus …

Assessing the role of large herbivores in the structuring and functioning of freshwater and marine angiosperm ecosystems
While large herbivores can have strong impacts on terrestrial ecosystems, much less is
known of their role in aquatic systems. We reviewed the literature to determine: 1) which …
