Selection characteristics and utilization of nesting grounds by green sea turtles on Xisha Islands, South China Sea

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Effective species management and conservation require an understanding of geographical distribution patterns and reasons for species dispersal in a larger environment. The Xisha Islands are currently the largest green sea turtle nesting grounds in China,

Report of Enodiotrema megachondrus (Looss, 1899) Looss, 1901 (Digenea: Plagiorchiidae) in a green turtle Chelonia mydas Linnaeus, 1758 (Testudines, Cheloniidae) from Brazil

open access: yesHelminthologia, 2016
This paper describes the occurrence of Enodiotrema megachondrus (Looss, 1899) Looss, 1901 in a juvenile green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas Linnaeus, 1758) found on the coast of Brazil. This parasite has been described in Caretta caretta from Egypt, France,

Genetic variation among sea turtle life stages and species suggests connectivity among ocean basins

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Regional genetic differentiation of mitochondrial lineages occurs in migratory species with natal philopatry such as sea turtles. However, early juvenile dispersal represents a key opportunity for gene flow and colonization of new regions through founder

Sea turtle nesting activity along Eglin Air Force Base on Cape San Blas and Santa Rosa Island, Florida from 1994 to 1997. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Along EAFB on Cape San BIas, the only sea turtle species nest observed has been the loggerhead turtle. The first green turtle nest documented along the Florida panhandle coast was observed on EAFB property, however (D. Atencio, EAFB, pers.

Epibiotic bacteria on the carapace of hawksbill and green sea turtles

open access: yesBiofouling, 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 ...

Patterning the Void: Combining L‐Systems with Archimedean Tessellations as a Perspective for Tissue Engineering Scaffolds

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel multi‐scale scaffold design using L‐fractals arranged in Archimedean tessellations for tissue regeneration. Despite similar porosity, tiles display vastly different tensile responses (1–100 MPa) and deformation modes. In vitro experiments with hMSCs show geometry‐dependent growth and activity. Over 55 000 tile combinations

Nest Site Selection by Green Sea Turtles (Chelonia mydas) and Implications for Conservation on Qilianyu, Xisha Islands, South China Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
The green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) is the only sea turtle species that breeds in China, and the largest remaining nesting grounds for green sea turtles in Chinese waters is found on the Qilianyu atoll of the Xisha Islands.

The Role of Geomagnetic Cues in Green Turtle Open Sea Navigation

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Laboratory and field experiments have provided evidence that sea turtles use geomagnetic cues to navigate in the open sea. For instance, green turtles (Chelonia mydas) displaced 100 km away from their nesting site were impaired in returning home when carrying a strong magnet glued on the head.
