Predicting the effects of climate change on sea turtle nesting habitat in Florida [PDF]
Rising global temperatures threaten the survival of many plant and animal species. Having already risen at an unprecedented rate in the past century, temperatures are predicted to rise between 0.3 and 7.5C in North America over the next 100 years ...

We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Global phylogeography and evolution of chelonid fibropapilloma-associated herpesvirus [PDF]
A global phylogeny for chelonid fibropapilloma-associated herpesvirus (CFPHV), the most likely aetiological agent of fibropapillomatosis (FP) in sea turtles, was inferred, using dated sequences, through Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo analysis and used

Individualised niches in a variable environment—Consequences for environmental change responses
Abstract Intraspecific trait variation (ITV) can be important for population performance in a variable and changing environment because individuals with different traits have different fitness responses. Furthermore, there are three mechanisms via which individuals can interact with their environment to potentially improve fitness: niche conformance ...

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta
Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...
