Open AccessA global review of green turtle diet: sea surface temperature as a potential driver of omnivory levels
To better understand dietary requirements, trophic shifts, and trophic interactions of the threatened green turtle (Chelonia mydas), we conducted a comprehensive global review and literature tabulation (177 studi...

Production of male hatchlings at a remote South Pacific green sea turtle rookery: conservation implications in a female-dominated world
Sea turtles have temperature-dependent sex determination, with males being produced at low incubation temperatures and females at high temperatures within the thermal range for embryonic development. In the co...

Open AccessGreen turtle diet is dominated by seagrass in the Western Indian Ocean except amongst gravid females
Green turtles (Chelonia mydas) are key herbivores of tropical and subtropical neritic habitats and play a major role in structuring seagrass meadows. We present the first detailed assessment of green turtle diet ...

Open AccessOptimism for mitigation of climate warming impacts for sea turtles through nest shading and relocation
Increasing incubation temperatures may threaten the viability of sea turtle populations. We explored opportunities for decreasing incubation temperatures at a Caribbean rookery with extreme female-biased hatch...

Open AccessMale hatchling production in sea turtles from one of the world’s largest marine protected areas, the Chagos Archipelago
Sand temperatures at nest depths and implications for hatchling sex ratios of hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) and green turtles (Chelonia mydas) nesting in the Chagos Archipelago, Indian Ocean are repo...

A mixed-model QTL analysis for salt tolerance in seedlings of crop-wild hybrids of lettuce
Cultivated lettuce is more sensitive to salinity stress than its wild progenitor species potentially due to differences in root architecture and/or differential uptake and accumulation of sodium. We have ident...

Effects of rising temperature on the viability of an important sea turtle rookery
A warming world poses challenges for species with temperature-dependent sex determination, including sea turtles, for which warmer incubation temperatures produce female hatchlings. We combined in situ sand tempe...
