There have been efforts around the globe to track individuals of many marine species and
assess their movements and distribution, with the putative goal of supporting their …

Over 25 years ago the first satellite tracking studies of sea turtles were published. The
technology and attachment methods have now come of age with long-term tracks over a …

Marine protected areas (MPAs), particularly large MPAs, are increasing in number and size
around the globe in part to facilitate the conservation of marine megafauna under the …

Anthropogenic noise (anthrophony) is pervasive in natural soundscapes and has become
an important aspect of conservation. While moored sound recorders have aided marine …

Global targets for area-based conservation and management must move beyond threshold-
based targets alone and must account for the quality of such areas. In the Southern Ocean …

The conservation and protection of marine megafauna require robust knowledge of where
and when animals are located. Yet, our ability to predict animal distributions in space and …

Management of marine turtles at broad spatial scales is challenging due to the costs and the
logistical feasibility of collecting ecological data and information on multiple threats at this …

Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) use both oceanic and neritic habitats depending on
their life stage, eventually undertaking an ontogenetic shift. Juveniles likely start foraging in …

To conserve imperiled marine species, an understanding of high-density use zones is
necessary prior to designing and evaluating management strategies that improve their …

Assessing abundance and monitoring ecology and population trends are of critical
importance for animal species of conservation concern. For sea turtles, annual nest counts …
