Olive ridley inter-nesting and post-nesting movements along the Brazilian coast and Atlantic Ocean

Endangered Species Research, 2019
The states of Sergipe and Bahia comprise the main nesting beaches for olive ridley sea turtles Lepidochelys olivacea in Brazil. Between February 2014 and March 2015, 40 L. olivacea were equipped with Argos platform transmitter terminal tags.

Influence of incubation temperature, maternal effects, and paternity on quality of olive ridley hatchlings (Lepidochelys olivacea) from a mass-nesting beach in the Mexican Pacific.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A Ecological and Integrative Physiology
Future climate change scenarios project that the increase in surface temperatures will affect ocean temperatures, inducing shifts in marine biodiversity.

An update on female sizes and body condition of nesting olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) in La Escobilla Beach Sanctuary, Mexico

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research
Body condition (BC) can affect the reproductive output and hatchling survival of nesting olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea). However, little is known about the BC of nesting females during the arrival event at nesting sites.

To nest or not to nest: environmental cues for olive ridley mass nesting events in Odisha, India

bioRxiv
Sea turtles of the genus Lepidochelys take part in synchronised nesting events, known as arribadas, where a large number of females emerge simultaneously from the sea to nest on the beach.

Foraging habitat locations of flatback (Natator depressus) and olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) in northern Australia

Wildlife research (East Melbourne)
Context. Understanding the spatial ecology of endangered species is important for their management. With flatback turtles (Natator depressus) Vulnerable and the olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) Endangered under Australia’s EPBC Act 1999, it is

Heavy metal contaminants in eggs and hatchlings of olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) at a mass nesting rookery in India

Frontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science
Heavy metal pollution has emerged as a prominent threat in recent times with high metal levels widely reported in species across ecosystems. The threat of rapid biomagnification is particularly enhanced in species such as olive ridley turtles, which ...

Are thermal barriers "higher" in deep sea turtle nests?

PLoS ONE, 2017
Thermal tolerances are affected by the range of temperatures that species encounter in their habitat. Daniel Janzen hypothesized in his "Why mountain passes are higher in the tropics" that temperature gradients were effective barriers to animal movements
