Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2004
Following the overexploitation of sea turtle populations, conservation measures are now in place in many areas. However, the overall impact of these measures is often unknown because there are few long time-series showing trends in population sizes. In a recent paper, George Balazs and Milani Chaloupka chart the number of green turtles Chelonia mydas ...

The deleterious effects of marine debris ingestion on marine turtles are well documented in literature globally. In this study, the qualitative and quantitative aspects of marine debris ingested by 14 stranded green sea turtles Chelonia mydas, (Linnaeus,

Pelagic Pacific sea turtles eat relatively large quantities of plastic (median 5 g in gut). Using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, we identified the polymers ingested by 37 olive ridley, 9 green, and 4 loggerhead turtles caught as bycatch in ...

Energetics of swimming of a sea turtle
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1976ABSTRACT Young (mean mass 735 g) green turtles (Chelonia my das) were able to swim in a water channel at sustained speeds between 0·14 and 0·35 m.s−1. Oxygen consumption at rest was 0·07kg−1. h−1; at maximum swimming speed oxygen consumption was 3–4 times greater than at rest for a given individual.

The ‘lost year’ of the sea turtle
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1988The extent to which the vagaries of the history of biology have influenced subsequent developments is often surprising. In particular, the early dichotomies between individual fields of enquiry have sometimes led to the disregard of important biological phenomena.

This thesis contains a review chapter outlining the microbiota of vertebrates and how this is influenced by phylogenetic history. The remaining chapters are focused on the microbiota of sea turtles and how it is affected by factors such as phylogeny and geography with implications for sea turtle health and physiology.
