Climate change and marine turtles: recent advances and future directions
Climate change is a threat to marine turtles that is expected to affect all of their life stages. To
guide future research, we conducted a review of the most recent literature on this topic …

Can nesting behaviour allow reptiles to adapt to climate change?
A range of abiotic parameters within a reptile nest influence the viability and attributes
(including sex, behaviour and body size) of hatchlings that emerge from that nest. As a result …

Adaptation of sea turtles to climate warming: Will phenological responses be sufficient to counteract changes in reproductive output?
Sea turtles are vulnerable to climate change since their reproductive output is influenced by
incubating temperatures, with warmer temperatures causing lower hatching success and …

Climate change and temperature‐linked hatchling mortality at a globally important sea turtle nesting site
The study of temperature‐dependent sex determination (TSD) in vertebrates has attracted
major scientific interest. Recently, concerns for species with TSD in a warming world have …

Temperature‐dependent sex determination in sea turtles in the context of climate change: uncovering the adaptive significance
P Santidrián Tomillo, JR Spotila - BioEssays, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
The adaptive significance of temperature‐dependent sex determination (TSD) in reptiles
remains unknown decades after TSD was first identified in this group. Concurrently, there is …

Can a present-day thermal niche be preserved in a warming climate by a shift in phenology? A case study with sea turtles
How species respond to climate change may impact their extinction probability. Here we link
climatology and ecology to tackle a globally important conservation question. For sea turtles …

Potential adaptability of marine turtles to climate change may be hindered by coastal development in the USA
Marine turtles may respond to projected climatic changes by shifting their nesting range to
climatically suitable areas, which may result in either increased exposure to threats or fewer …

Artificial and natural shade: Implications for green turtle (Chelonia mydas) rookery management
Global sea turtle populations are threatened by rising atmospheric temperatures which
result in higher incubation temperatures. Increased incubation temperatures affect embryo …

Low male production at the world's largest green turtle rookery
Because the sex of all sea turtle hatchlings is determined by incubation temperature, with
low temperatures producing mainly males and high temperatures producing mainly females …

A review of the effects of incubation conditions on hatchling phenotypes in non-squamate reptiles
Develo** embryos of oviparous reptiles show substantial plasticity in their responses to
environmental conditions during incubation, which can include altered sex ratios …
