The Role of Geomagnetic Cues in Green Turtle Open Sea Navigation

PLoS 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.

Overview of the population genetics and connectivity of sea turtles in the East Asia Region and their conservation implications

Frontiers in Marine Science
Understanding the current status and recent development of the population genetics and connectivity of sea turtles is crucial for effective conservation management of the species. Five sea turtle species, green turtle (Chelonia mydas), loggerhead turtle (

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

Global 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,

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

Ecology 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

A short report on green sea turtle microbiology

, 2023
Large numbers of many different species of microorganisms live in the oceans. Yet, much remains to be learned about the exact number of species living in various parts of the ocean and the normal microflora of marine animals. There is very little information available in the literature about normal and pathogenic microorganisms of sea turtles.
