Among sea turtles, nest site selection is a crucial factor for hatching success and population
viability. The relocation of otherwise doomed clutches to safe hatcheries has been widely …

Climate change scenarios predict an increase in global temperature and sea level rise. For
sea turtles, the association between sea level rise, nest water content and temperature …

Climate change plays a key role in the development and survival of oviparous ectotherms
such as sea turtles. Higher environmental temperatures are expected to lead to increased …

Sea turtles are globally endangered and facing anthropogenic threats. To mitigate the
negative impacts on sea turtle populations, different conservation strategies have been …

Synchronized emergence of offspring may represent an adaptive strategy to reduce
predation risk. This strategy swamps the short-term capacity of predators to consume prey …

We evaluate the frequency of flipper amputation and its impact on reproduction in the
threatened loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) population of the Eastern Atlantic, through a …

Currently, some sea turtle populations are expanding their home range distribution toward
higher latitudes at an unprecedented rate. These expansions are associated to factors such …

We assessed the relationship between body size and several important life history
parameters to understand the demographic significance of interpopulation variability in the …

Although sea turtle flipper tagging is a tenet field technique generating irreplaceable
scientific data worldwide since the inception of sea turtle conservation in 1920s along the …

This paper evaluated the efficiency of beach hatcheries as a conservation tool for threatened
sea turtle clutches. During six nesting seasons (2013 to 2018), several thousand high-risk …
