Marine turtle studies focus on migration and diving behaviour, seasonal cycles in mating and breeding, individual variation in reproductive fitness and the long-term conservation status of different populations. Comparative work looks at the movements and dive performance of turtles versus other marine vertebrates such including marine mammals and marine birds. Zooplankton work examines the trophic and biogeochemical importance of this group with an emphasis on jellyfish, see webpage http://www.jellyfish.ie/. |
