Habitat fidelity in hawksbill sea turtles
Abstract Climate change is altering habitat suitability and driving shifts in species distributions. To understand potential responses by mobile animals, it is essential to assess levels of plasticity in habitat use, ranging from transience to long‐term fidelity.

Hawksbill turtle terra incognita: conservation genetics of eastern Pacific rookeries. [PDF]
AbstractPrior to 2008 and the discovery of several important hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) nesting colonies in the EP (Eastern Pacific), the species was considered virtually absent from the region. Research since that time has yielded new insights into EP hawksbills, salient among them being the use of mangrove estuaries for nesting.

Camera Traps: A Novel Method to Estimate Numbers of Nesting Sea Turtles. [PDF]
We compared sea turtle track counts from camera traps with those from simultaneous foot patrol surveys. Our findings support the use of camera traps as a complementary tool to fill data gaps at remote sites that would otherwise receive little to no assessment.

Somatic Growth Rates of Juvenile Green Sea Turtles (<i>Chelonia mydas</i>) in the Fijian Archipelago. [PDF]
We measured somatic growth rates of 215 juvenile green turtles across three foraging sites in the Fijian Archipelago from 2015 to 2022, finding a mean growth rate of 1.6 ± 0.1 cm year−1 that declined non‐monotonically with size and varied spatially between sites.

Local Adaptation May Help Mitigate Feminisation of Sea Turtle Populations Globally. [PDF]
We evaluate whether sea turtles have the capacity to adapt to warming temperatures through local adaptations of the pivotal temperature at which they produce a balanced amount of male and female hatchlings. We show that at warmer sites, lower proportions of female hatchlings are produced than expected.
