Marine turtles migrate across long distances, exhibit complex life histories, and occupy
habitats that are difficult to observe. These factors present substantial challenges to …

The Natura 2000 (N2k) network is an important site-based protection tool for the protection
of biodiversity in Europe. However, for highly mobile and adaptable marine species, such a …

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 …

Elusive aquatic wildlife, such as endangered sea turtles, are difficult to monitor and
conserve. As novel molecular and genetic technologies develop, it is possible to adapt and …

The colonisation of new suitable habitats is crucial for species survival at evolutionary scale
under changing environmental conditions. However, colonisation potential may be limited …

Phenological shifts, by initiating reproductive events earlier, in response to advanced
seasonal warming is one of the most striking effects currently observed in wild populations …

Stable isotope analysis is a useful tool to track animal movements in both terrestrial and
marine environments. These intrinsic markers are assimilated through the diet and may …

The loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) is sensitive to climate change and is responding
by colonising the Western Mediterranean. To understand the rapid nesting increase in …

Globally distributed marine taxa are well suited for investigations of biogeographic impacts
on genetic diversity, connectivity, and population demography. The sea turtle genus …

Species' response to climate change is already occurring and managers require scenario
planning with tangible actions for effective conservation. We address this need by examining …
