Exploring sociodemographic and cultural characteristics of sea turtle take and use to support effective conservation strategies in Indonesia

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 51-64, January 2026.
Abstract Many sea turtle populations face severe declines in the Asia‐Pacific region and, although threats are widely recognised, drivers are practically unknown, especially in Indonesia. We surveyed 140 respondents at three sites in Sumatra, Indonesia (Padang, Mentawai, Nias) to identify how sociodemographic and cultural characteristics across these ...

Fatal Photobacterium damselae-induced enteritis in a leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2019
Stranded leatherback turtle Dermochelys coriacea complete pathology reports are rare, and the cause of mortality is difficult to determine in many cases. We conducted a complete pathological study of a stranded leatherback turtle from the western Mediterranean.

At‐sea distribution of seals on the Northwest European Shelf: Towards transboundary conservation and management

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study provides the first comprehensive, regionally scalable distribution estimates for pinnipeds across the NWES and its constituent countries. The modelling framework is adaptable to other central‐place and migratory species, supporting transboundary biodiversity assessments and international conservation policy. We discuss common limitations and

Contextualising the Last Survivors: Population Structure of Marine Turtles in the Dominican Republic. [PDF]

, 2016
Nesting by three species of marine turtles persists in the Dominican Republic, despite historic threats and long-term population decline. We conducted a genetic survey of marine turtles in the Dominican Republic in order to link them with other rookeries

Satellite-tracked movements of female Dermochelys coriacea from southeastern Brazil [PDF]

Endangered Species Research, 2011
Four female leatherback sea turtles Dermochelys coriacea were satellite tracked from the southeastern coast of Brazil (3 from nesting beaches in the state of Espirito Santo, and 1 recovered from a driftnet off the coast of the state of Sao Paulo), representing the first study of movements of leatherbacks nesting on Brazilian grounds.

Distribution Models Reveal Important Coastal Habitats for Endangered Leatherback Sea Turtles

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim With the development and operation of offshore wind farms along the United States East Coast, it is imperative that we understand the distributions of vulnerable species so we can track and predict potential interactions. We focused on leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) as they depend on this region for important stages of ...

Predicting the effects of climate change on sea turtle nesting habitat in Florida [PDF]

, 2010
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 ...
