Opportunities for the Conservation of Threatened Marine Megafauna: A 
Case Study with Marine Turtles


Abstract:

Marine turtles have complex life cycles, and use both the terrestrial 
and marine environment, where they are exposed to multiple threats 
  (e.g., coastal development, fisheries, climate change) across their 
different life stages. These threats ultimately affect marine turtle 
reproductive output, numbers, and population stability. As a result of 
  these threats, some populations of marine turtles have been 
dramatically reduced and are now threatened. This presentation will 
highlight several research projects being conducted to quantify some of 
the most pressing  threats to marine turtles as well as describe 
different systematic conservation planning approaches used to mitigate 
threats. Approaches presented can be applied to other marine taxa and 
systems.
