To combat the scarcity of data on basic hawksbill ecology, we analyzed stranding data collected between 1984 and 2018 to gain insights into the distribution, demography, and conservation challenges facing hawksbills in Hawaiʻi.
In this study we summarize all available hawksbill nesting activity around the Hawaiian Islands between 1988 and 2018 combatting varied monitoring effort with a predictive modeling approach.
We generated high quality blood transcriptome assemblies for hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), loggerhead (Caretta caretta), green (Chelonia mydas), and leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) turtles.
In this study, we fitted 18 green turtles (Chelonia mydas) with detachable time-depth recorder (systems to obtain and analyze fine-scale dive behavior and daily activity – with a focus on resting dive bouts.
We created a management strategy evaluation to compare static and dynamic closures in a simulated fishery, aimed at reducing bycatch of leatherback turtles.
Our staff regularly publish their findings in scientific journals and Center-produced documents. Here you'll find select articles organized by publication year, starting with the most recent.
Our stock assessments provide information on the dynamics of fish populations and scientific information to fishery managers regarding stock status, historical and future biomass, and recruitment trends.
