Impact of artificial light on nesting in the leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea (Testudines: Dermochelyidae) at Cipara beach, Venezuela

J Buitrago, M Mccoy - Revista de Biologia Tropical, 2009 - europepmc.org
The number of Leatherback turtle nests and their spatial distribution was compared between
years with and without artificial light, and between dark and lighted beach segments, in
Cipara Beach, Paria Peninsula, Venezuela. Residents were interviewed to identify their
perceptions about the impact of artificial light on sea turtles. Mean volume of sand per meter
of beach was larger at La Peña, Cipara and La Remate and smaller at Varadero (p< 0.001),
increasing from April to June and later decreasing until August (p< 0.05). Mean percentage …
