Unlabelled: Sea turtles spend most of their life cycle in foraging grounds. Research in developmental habitats is crucial to understanding individual dynamics and to support conservation strategies. One approach to gather information in foraging grounds is the use of cost-effective and non-invasive techniques that allow public participation. The p...

Sea turtles are an iconic group of marine megafauna that have been exposed to multiple anthropogenic threats across their different life stages, especially in the past decades. This has resulted in population declines, and consequently many sea turtle populations are now classified as threatened or endangered globally. Although some populations of...

Biodiversity assessment is a mandatory task for sustainable and adaptive management for the next decade, and long-term ecological monitoring programs are a cornerstone for understanding changes in ecosystems. The Brazilian Long-Term Ecological Research Program (PELD) is an integrated effort model supported by public funds that finance ecological st...

Sea turtles spend most of their life cycle in foraging grounds. Nevertheless, given the logistical ease, bulk of studies are carried out in nesting grounds. One strategy to gather information in foraging grounds is the use of cost-effective and non-invasive techniques that allow public participation. The present study aimed to use photographic-iden...

ABSTRACT: Environmental conditions have a strong influence on sea turtle population dynamics. Sea turtles spend most of their lives in foraging areas, however, there is a lack of information on how oceanographic and biological parameters determine habitat use and density. Here, we produce estimates of density for Chelonia mydas (green turtle) and E...

Engagement in marine science has historically been the privilege of a small number of people with access to higher education, specialised equipment and research funding. Such constraints have often limited public engagement and may have slowed the uptake of ocean science into environmental policy. Recognition of this disconnect has spurred a growin...
