Isolation by environment in the highly mobile olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) in the eastern Pacific. [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci, 2018
Spatial and temporal scales at which processes modulate genetic diversity over the landscape are usually overlooked, impacting the design of conservation management practices for widely distributed species. We examine processes shaping population divergence in highly mobile species by re-assessing the case of panmixia in the iconic olive ridley turtle ...

First findings of ulcerative and necrotizing dermatitis in olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) in La Escobilla, Oaxaca, Mexico

Ciencias Marinas, 2023
Ulcerative and necrotizing dermatitis (UND) is a cutaneous disease caused by traumatic skin lesions on the necks of sea turtles. In this study we report the first findings of UND in free-ranging olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) in La ...

Using satellite tracking to optimize protection of long-lived marine species: olive ridley sea turtle conservation in Central Africa. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Tractable conservation measures for long-lived species require the intersection between protection of biologically relevant life history stages and a socioeconomically feasible setting. To protect breeding adults, we require knowledge of animal movements,

Prevalence, etiology, and transmission of fibropapillomatosis in Olive Ridley turtles at a mass-nesting colony in the Mexican Pacific. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Fibropapillomatosis (FP) is a widespread disease in sea turtles characterized by the development of internal and external tumors that hinder physiological and general functions.

ORS: A novel Olive Ridley Survival inspired Meta-heuristic Optimization Algorithm

CoRR
Meta-heuristic algorithmic development has been a thrust area of research since its inception. In this paper, a novel meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, Olive Ridley Survival (ORS), is proposed which is inspired from survival challenges faced by hatchlings of Olive Ridley sea turtle.

Temperature Conditions in Artificial Sea Turtle Nests: Toward Optimized Hatchery Management [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Climate change poses a significant threat to species with temperature‐dependent sex determination, such as sea turtles. Their conservation often involves relocating nests to hatcheries, which is also crucial on the Pacific coast of Guatemala, where ...

Future sea-level rise impacts to Olive Ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) and Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas) nesting habitat on the Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica

Climate Change Ecology
Global sea turtle populations are in decline and so a global network of sea turtle nesting conservation programs have been established worldwide with the goal to protect vulnerable nesting mothers, and their clutches of eggs.

Using Photo-ID to document and monitor the prevalence of fibropapilloma tumours in a foraging aggregation of green turtles

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Sea turtle in-water monitoring has been conducted in Diani-Chale National Marine Reserve (DCMR) in Kenya’s South Coast since 2018, where green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) may be found resting or foraging.
