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 ...

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

Climate driven egg and hatchling mortality threatens survival of eastern Pacific leatherback turtles. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Egg-burying reptiles need relatively stable temperature and humidity in the substrate surrounding their eggs for successful development and hatchling emergence.

Effects of Handling on Hatchability of Eggs of the Leatherback Turtle, Dermochelys coriacea (L.) [PDF]

, 1985
The infertility rate among clutches of leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) eggs incubated in the hatchery at Rantau A bang, Malaysia is estimated at 22%. Variance in hatchability among fertile clutches ranges from 35.7- 96.

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 ...

Is Telomere Length Optimized in Hatchling Sand Lizards?

Evolution &Development, Volume 27, Issue 4, December 2025.
The graphical abstract image depicts the complex interplay of factors driving telomere dynamics (with permission from Dr. Chris Friesen). ABSTRACT Telomeres (repeat‐DNA‐protein structures primarily located at the ends of chromosomes) protect coding DNA against attacks by reactive molecules and the cells’ own DNA repair systems.

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 ...

Interaction Between Age and Individual Heterogeneity Shapes Breeding Probability in a Long‐Lived Marine Ectotherm

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
Using a 52‐year dataset on captive green turtles, our study reveals that individual quality and age are the primary drivers of reproductive patterns. We found that high‐quality turtles bred more consistently throughout their lives and that females maintained a high reproductive value into old age despite evidence of physical aging.
