Abstract Somatic growth is an integrated, individual‐based response to environmental conditions, especially in ectotherms. Growth dynamics of large, mobile animals are particularly useful as bio‐indicators change at regional scales. We assembled rate data from throughout the West Atlantic for green turtles, Chelonia mydas , which long‐lived, highly migratory, primarily herbivorous mega‐consumers that may migrate over hundreds thousands kilometers. Our dataset, largest ever compiled sea has...
The ingestion of plastic debris has been reported in all seven marine turtle species, affecting vital processes throughout their entire life cycle and key habitats. Consequently, this emerging threat recognized as a priority conservation concern. potential health impacts range from cryptic sublethal effects to severe injury death. A comprehensive understanding these the involved, at both individual population levels, is crucial for evaluating vulnerability turtles pollution. Aiming guide...
We report 8 new records of Lepidochelys olivacea marine turtle in the Uruguayan waters, indicating this area as the southernmost limit distribution for species western Atlantic Ocean. In addition, 1 specimen was subjected to genetic analysis, revealing its population origin nesting colonies (Surinam, French Guiana, and Brazil). This represents an update L. southwestern and provides insight into morphological characterization at temperate waters.
The ingestion of plastic debris has been reported in all seven marine turtle species, affecting vital processes across their life cycle and key habitats. Recognized as a priority conservation concern, understanding the impacts caused by is for assessing vulnerability to this emerging threat. Research efforts have increased gradually shifted from largely opportunistic systematic structured studies. However, there limited consensus regarding adopting consistent procedures protocols, hampering...
