Purpose
|
Servicing 7 acoustic receivers, tag nesting female sea turtles with satellite
tags, conduct rodeo captures to tag sub adult and adult sea turtles, tag
juvenile sea turtles, conduct benthic habitat characterization by diving in key
turtle hotspots of activity.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Animals that moved through zones where acoustic receivers are located, collect
biological samples from tagged turtles, deploy satellite tags on turtles to
begin to track their daily movements in and around the Tortugas.
