An update on hatchery success of olive ridley turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) at Playa San Miguel, Costa Rica

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This study aims to elucidate and update the impacts of nest temperatures and rainfall on the San Miguel olive ridley hatchery success from 2019 to 2022 sea turtle seasons. Nest sand temperatures significantly affect nest failures (Estimate = 0.123 ± 0.059 SE, z = 2.088, p = .037) while nesting seasons also significantly affect nest failures with lower ...
