Newly described nesting sites of the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) and the hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) in the central Red Sea. [PDF]

PeerJ, 2022
BackgroundThere is relatively little published information about sea turtle nesting distribution and seasonality in the Saudi Arabian Red Sea. Upcoming large-scale developments occurring along the Saudi Arabian Red Sea coast could negatively affect many sea turtle nesting beaches with potential impacts on the survival of local populations.MethodsIn ...

Using accelerometers for tracking loggerhead and green sea turtle behaviour. [PDF]

Anim Biotelemetry
Abstract Background Understanding animal behaviour is critical for the design of effective conservation and management strategies. Animal-borne tri-axial accelerometers constitute a type of biologging device which have the potential to provide continuous high-resolution behavioural data.

The presence of the green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas, in the Adriatic Sea [PDF]

, 2004
We collated and reviewed data on the green turtle in the Adriatic Sea from our own records, museum collections, and published literature. Results show overlap of records and cases of misidentification of large loggerheads as green turtles. Currently there have been twelve green turtles recorded in the Adriatic Sea.

Genetic Divergence and Isolation of the Green Sea Turtle (<i>Chelonia mydas</i>) in the Red Sea. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
ABSTRACT The green sea turtle Chelonia mydas is a wide‐ranging marine reptile, inhabiting all the world's tropical and warm‐temperate seas. This global distribution makes delineating population boundaries challenging, and molecular

Epibiotic bacteria on the carapace of hawksbill and green sea turtles

Biofouling, 2023
In this study, epibiotic bacteria on the carapace of sea turtles at three different sites in the Persian Gulf were studied. Bacterial density counted using a Scanning Electron Microscope showed that the highest (9.4 × 106 ± 0.8 × 106 cm−2) and lowest (5.3 × 106 ± 0.4 × 106 cm−2) average bacterial densities were found on the green and hawksbill sea ...

Marina Observation of Sea Turtles: Establishing a Database of Intracoastal Waterway Green Sea Turtles in Northeast Florida

Animals, 2023
As conservation efforts regarding green sea turtles, Chelonia mydas, continue, it is imperative to document behaviors and foraging habits/habitats of understudied populations. We have conducted an 18-month study dedicated to photographing the local population feeding alongside floating docks within the Guana Tolomato Matanzas estuary to determine the ...

Hematologic and biochemical characteristics of stranded green sea turtles [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2018
To improve understanding of pathophysiologic processes occurring in green sea turtles ( Chelonia mydas) stranded along the east coast of Australia, we retrospectively examined the hematologic and biochemical blood parameters of 127 green turtles admitted to 2 rehabilitation facilities, Dolphin Marine Magic (DMM) and Taronga Zoo (TZ)

An odyssey of the green sea turtle: Ascension Island revisited [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1989
Green turtles ( Chelonia mydas ) that nest on Ascension Island, in the south-central Atlantic, utilize feeding grounds along the coast of Brazil, more than 2000 km away. To account for the origins of this remarkable migratory behavior, Carr and Coleman [Carr, A. & Coleman, P. J. (1974)

Novel Insights Into Gas Embolism in Sea Turtles: First Description in Three New Species

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The recent finding of gas embolism (GE) and decompression sickness (DCS) in loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) in the Mediterranean Sea challenged the conventional understanding of marine vertebrate diving physiology.
