AN - 85388909; pmid-16642823 AB - Recently, J. D. Achenbach [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 116, 1481-1487 (2004)] put forward, on heuristic grounds, an elegant technique to calculate amplitudes of guided waves in an elastic solid. The technique is based on application of the reciprocity principle. In this article, the technique is applied to acoustic waveguides. A mathematical justification of the technique is obtained. The technique is extended to enable calculation of excitation coefficients of modes of both discrete and continuous spectra by a given sound source. The results are shown to be identical to those derived with the traditional methods that rely on integral transforms.

AN - 85386341; pmid-16642824 AB - Statistical characteristics of low-frequency sound waves propagating over long distances in a fluctuating ocean are important for many practical problems. In this paper, using the theory of multiple scattering, the mean field of a low-frequency sound wave was analytically calculated. In these calculations, the ratio of the sound wavelength and the scale of random inhomogeneities can be arbitrary. Furthermore, the correlation function of inhomogeneities is expressed in terms of a modal spectrum (e.g., internal waves modes). The obtained mean sound field is expressed as a sum of normal modes that attenuate exponentially. It is shown that the extinction coefficients of the modes are linearly related to the spectrum of random inhomogeneities in the ocean. Measurements of the extinction coefficients can therefore be used for retrieving this spectrum. The mean sound field is calculated for both 3D and 2D geometries of sound propagation. The results obtained can be used to study the range of applicability of the 2D propagation model.

AN - 68034416; 16749306 AB - Environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) were demonstrated to be useful analytical tools for investigating surface and bulk components of individual floc particles from both full- and bench-scale activated sludge systems. Detailed surface imaging of various hydrated biological floc particles by ESEM revealed substantial differences in surface features between treatment systems, while EDS identified spatial differences in the iron and the aluminum distributions. The ToF-SIMS spectra had signature fragments of protein and polysaccharide material from the floc surface, suggesting that this technique is capable of surface profiling extracellular polymeric substances. Principal-component analysis of the positive ion ToF-SIMS spectra from the mixed-liquor-suspended solid (MLSS) samples and reference aquatic organic materials found slight differences between the full- and bench-scale MLSS surface properties but substantial differences among MLSS and treated effluent from the same facility.

AN - 57665743; 418595 AB - The Lab Liaisons at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) conducted an assessment of NIST-authored publications within a specific organizational unit, the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Laboratory (EEEL) . This assessment used commonly existing information tools, including Journal Citation Reports and the WorldCat database, to evaluate the projected impact of NIST research products within their respective technical communities. The ultimate purpose of this analysis was to examine EEEL's publishing trends over time, rather than to evaluate the citation rate of specific articles written by individual research staff members. With this context in mind, the analysis of the impact factors of given periodical patterns over time provided a relative sense of the "prestige" of a periodical. A study of the patterns involved in conference paper publication was also undertaken. The results of this analysis were provided to upper-level NIST technical management to assist in the creation of an overall publications management strategy.

The western oil system is centered near Katalla and is sourced by marine organic shale of the Oligocene Poul Creek Fm. The Organic Shale member averages approximately 4% TOC (range approximately 1.5-8%) and is strongly oil-prone. Oil-prone coals of the Eocene Kulthieth Fm source numerous oil seeps between Cape Yakataga and the Samovar Hills and are source rocks for the eastern system. Oil-prone coals occur along approximately 130 km of the coastal margin. Recent glacial retreat in the Wrangell-St. Elias National Park in Tann Fiord near Icy Bay allows improved access to coals formerly covered by ice. Exposed coals range from 6 cm to 1.5 m thick and are laterally discontinuous due to both tectonic disruption and depositional thinning and pinchout. Five sampled coal seams contain TOC from 74-82%. Rock-Eval analysis yield S2 peaks from 252-300 mg/g and Ro values from 0.90-0.99%. These data show the coals are highly oil-prone with 25-30% of the coal by weight converting to liquid hydrocarbon during thermal maturation and are mature for oil generation. Samples of fragmental coaly debris pulverized by the Malaspina Glacier and transported into Icy Bay by the Caetani River also contain an oil-prone component. Oil-prone coals outcrop at the headwaters of the Kosakuts River, the Sullivan anticline as inclusions in the Yakataga Fm, Tann Fiord, and the Samovar Hills. The genetic link between Kulthieth coal and oil seeps along the Sullivan Anticline is supported by: 1. coincident distribution of coals and seeps, 2. absence of other identified source rocks, 3. petrographic identification of amorphous organic material in the Kulthieth coal, and 4. similarity of resistant sterane biomarkers between Kulthieth coal and weathered oil. Petrographic examination of coals from the Kosakuts and Tann Fiord outcrops identified abundant lipid-rich vitrinite (mainly desmocollinite). The lipid component within the desmocollinite grains are dispersed as tiny grains that are integrated within the detrital vitrinite macerals. The lipid material is possibly derived from algae growing in clear water swamps, mixed with detrital, degraded vitrinite, and is evidently responsible for the oil generative potential of the Kulthieth coals.

Nafanua grew from the 1,000-m-deep crater floor in <4 years and could reach the sea surface within decades. Vents fill Vailulu'u Crater with a thick suspension of particulates and apparently toxic fluids that mix with seawater entering from the crater breaches. Low-temperature vents form Fe oxide chimneys in many locations and up to 1-m-thick layers of hydrothermal Fe floc on Nafanua. High-temperature (81 degrees C) hydrothermal vents in the northern moat (945-m water depth) produce acidic fluids (pH 2.7) with rising droplets of (probably) liquid CO2. The Nafanua summit vent area is inhabited by a thriving population of eels (Dysommina rugosa) that feed on midwater shrimp probably concentrated by anticyclonic currents at the volcano summit and rim. The moat and crater floor around the new volcano are littered with dead metazoans that apparently died from exposure to hydrothermal emissions. Acid-tolerant polychaetes (Polynoidae) live in this environment, apparently feeding on bacteria from decaying fish carcasses. Vailulu'u is an unpredictable and very active underwater volcano presenting a potential long-term volcanic hazard. Although eels thrive in hydrothermal vents at the summit of Nafanua, venting elsewhere in the crater causes mass mortality. Paradoxically, the same anticyclonic currents that deliver food to the eels may also concentrate a wide variety of nektonic animals in a death trap of toxic hydrothermal fluids.

Estimates from tide-gauges range from less than one, to more than two millimetre yr (super -1) . In contrast, values based on the processes mostly responsible for GSLR-mass increase (from mountain glaciers and the great high latitude ice masses) and volume increase (expansion due to ocean warming)-fall below this range. Either the gauge estimates are too high, or one (or both) of the component estimates is too low. Gauge estimates of GSLR have been in dispute for several decades because of vertical land movements, especially due to glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA). More recently, the possibility has been raised that coastal tide-gauges measure exaggerated rates of sea-level rise because of localized ocean warming. Presented here are two approaches to a resolution of these problems. The first is morphological, based on the limiting values of observed trends of twentieth century relative sea-level rise as a function of distance from the centres of the ice loads at last glacial maximum. This observational approach, which does not depend on a geophysical model of GIA, supports values of GSLR near 2 mm yr (super -1) . The second approach involves an analysis of long records of tide-gauge and hydrographic (in situ temperature and salinity) observations in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. It was found that sea-level trends from tide-gauges, which reflect both mass and volume change, are 2-3 times higher than rates based on hydrographic data which reveal only volume change. These results support those studies that put the twentieth century rate near 2 mm yr (super -1) , thereby indicating that mass increase plays a much larger role than ocean warming in twentieth century GSLR.

It is well known that a major climate shift occurred in the North Pacific around 1976/77, a minor climate shift was observed in 1988/1989, and another climate shift possibly occurred in 1998/99. These climate shifts are reflected in ocean conditions, such as sea surface temperature, ice cover, and wind-driven transport, which then affect the production and distribution of marine organisms. The Ecosystem Considerations section of the Stock Assessment and Fishery Evaluation of the North Pacific Fisheries Management Council provides a current and historical perspective on status and trends of ecosystem components and ecosystem-level attributes using an indicator approach. Past and present indicators of climate effects on the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska ecosystems are summarized. Various indicators include climate, oceanographic, production, species, community, and ecosystem-level indicators. For example, there are indices of zooplankton and jellyfish biomass in the eastern Bering Sea, seabird and marine mammal population trends, and annually surplus production of groundfish. These indicators, when examined together elucidate general productivity trends in the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska in response to climate change. Many indicators representing different trophic levels suggest the productivity of the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska has decreased or shifted to unmonitored trophic pathways in recent years. Examination of changes in groundfish diet composition over time may reveal potential causes of the decreased or shifted productivity.

In one experiment, ENSO is turned off while in the other experiment ENSO is kept on. Perturbations are introduced through either enhancing tropical heating or increasing subtropical cooling. In the absence of ENSO, the time-mean difference between the warm-pool SST (Tw) and the characteristic temperature of the equatorial thermocline (Tc) responds sensitively to either enhanced tropical heating or enhanced subtropical cooling. In the presence of ENSO, such a sensitivity to destabilizing forcing disappears. The lack of sensitivity in the response of Tw-Tc is linked to a stronger ENSO in response to the destabilizing forcing. ENSO in the model acts as a basin-scale heat 'mixer' that enables surface heat to be transported to the depths of the equatorial thermocline. The study raises the question whether models with poor simulations of ENSO can give reliable predictions of the response of the time-mean climate to global warming.

Projections of climate change due to increased greenhouse gases predict significant warming of the Polar Regions. This change in polar temperatures has been primarily attributed to ice-albedo feedbacks. However, in this study we show that in our AGCM experiments the temporal and spatial coherence between developing extratropical cyclones and latent heat release causes a greater than 2 degree C warming of the poles.

The objective of the present study was to develop an injectable CPC using dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) with a high solubility for rapid setting. Two agents were incorporated to impart injectability and fast-hardening to the cement: a hardening accelerator (sodium phosphate) and a gelling agent (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, HPMC). The cement with DCPD was designated as CPCD, and the conventional cement was referred to as CPCA. Using water without sodium phosphate, CPCA had a setting time of 82 - 6 min. In contrast, CPCD exhibited rapid setting with a time of 17 - 1 min. At 0.2 mol/L sodium phosphate, setting time for CPCD was 15 - 1 min, significantly faster than 40 - 2 min for CPCA (Tukey's at 0.95). Sodium phosphate decreased the paste injectability (measured as the paste mass extruded from the syringe divided by the original paste mass inside the syringe). However, the addition of HPMC dramatically increased the paste injectability. For CPCD, the injectability was increased from 65% - 12% without HPMC to 98% - 1% with 1% HPMC. Injectability of CPCA was also doubled to 99% - 1%. The injectable and rapid-setting CPCD possessed flexural strength and elastic modulus values overlapping the reported values for sintered porous hydroxyapatite implants and cancellous bone. In summary, the rapid setting and relatively high strength and elastic modulus of CPCD should help the graft to quickly attain strength and geometrical integrity within a short period of time postoperatively. Furthermore, the injectability of CPCD may have potential for procedures involving defects with limited accessibility or narrow cavities, when there is a need for precise placement of the paste, and when using minimally invasive surgical techniques.

We examined mtDNA control region sequences obtained from 61 females that nested on PI between 2002 and 2005 and compared haplotype frequencies with those from the RN nesting population in order to test for a shift in haplotype frequencies that might indicate a possible founder event. We identified a total of 6 distinct haplotypes, with one found at high frequency at both PI and RN. There was no significant difference in haplotype frequency indicating genetic homogeneity between both populations. Conservation implications are discussed.

LAL is a clotting agent, derived solely from horseshoe crab blood cells, which is used to detect the presence of pathogenic gram-negative bacteria in injectable drugs and implantable medical and dental devices (Mikkelsen, 1988; Novitsky, 1991). In addition, LAL is used in many diagnostic tests for such illnesses as gram-negative bacterial meningitis and typhoid fever (Ding and Ho, 2001). Because the LAL test allows one to detect femtogram levels of endotoxin (Ding and Ho, 2001), it is the most effective test for detecting endotoxin contamination, and its increasing use in medical and pharmaceutical laboratories makes it a highly valued product.

In response to a growing concern for the recovery of sea turtle populations, the NED fishery was closed in 2001, and a 3-year experimental fishery, implemented by NOAA Fisheries in cooperation with the Blue Water Fisherman's Association, was initiated to evaluate modifications to reduce bycatch and mortality (Watson, et al. 2005). Preliminary work (LaCasella et al. 2004) indicated that the majority of loggerhead bycatch belonged to the South Florida (SF) stock, although the U.S. Northeast (NE) stock was also detected. We expanded this study to include 368 biopsy samples collected by fisheries observers in 2000 and through the experimental NED fishery between 2001 and 2004. A 400 base pair fragment of the mtDNA control region was amplified and sequenced from each sample and compared to published loggerhead sequences from Atlantic and Mediterranean nesting populations (Bowen et al. 2004; Bolten et al. 1998; Encalada et al. 1998). Mixed stock analysis (BAYES, Pella and Masuda 2001) was used to estimate stock composition of the NED bycatch, using our data in combination with published data from eight potential source nesting stocks. Our results to date indicate that the majority of the NED loggerhead bycatch is composed of animals from the SF stock, with a relatively small proportion comprised of NE and Mexican stocks. Proportions of these stocks in the NED bycatch generally reflect the relative abundance of the SF stock when compared to the depleted NE stock. Work is ongoing to improve our ability to assess stock origin of loggerheads in the Atlantic, and these results should be interpreted with caution until more data from additional nesting populations are available. However, these results are useful for evaluating potential impacts of fisheries in the North Atlantic.

The model relies on time series of abundance and calculates the probability of extinction over a set time period based on the size, exponential trend, and year-to-year variance of a population. The minimal data requirement makes this a potentially valuable tool for marine turtles although these abundance time series are for nests or nesting females, and adult females do not reproduce every year. Therefore, an appropriate multi-year running sum is needed to account for nesting remigration intervals which will provide a population size estimate closer to the number of adult females and reduce some of the variance in annual counts caused by variable nesting remigration intervals. To cope with uncertainty surrounding extinction probabilities, we propose a risk calculation based on the proportion of replicate "populations" that cross a threshold, where each replicate has a mean and variance drawn from the 95% confidence intervals for those estimated parameters. We evaluate the utility and robustness of our approach with simulations of age-structured populations and we demonstrate how this model can be applied to fisheries management and, potentially, as a new status assessment tool for IUCN listing criteria.

We also conducted a feasibility study of using PAT tags for a full survival study of sea turtles. We deployed 39 tags on wild loggerhead turtles in the North Atlantic. Most had interacted with the pelagic longline fishery, but some were control turtles dip netted from the surface. We monitored the fate of these turtles for up to 1 year and assessed our ability to use this technology in sea turtle studies. Lastly, we combined the sea turtle data with data from PAT-tagged billfish and evaluated tag performance over 3 generations of tags by Wildlife Computers.

While aerial surveys have proven to be an effective method for detecting leatherbacks and determining their distribution, the only technique for measuring turtles has been through capture. Due to the highly endangered status of leatherback turtles, this approach may not be the most efficient. A technique that has been successfully used to measure other vertebrate species in the marine environment is aerial photogrammetry, the photographing and subsequent measurement of organisms. In this study, we used a modified aerial reconnaissance camera mounted in a photo port in the deck of a NOAA Twin Otter aircraft. An onboard data acquisition system recorded time, position, and altitude each time the camera fired. Altitudes were determined via output from a radar altimeter, which was calibrated by photographing targets of known size. Two films were tested (Kodak Aerochrome MS 2427 and Kodak Aerial Plus X 3404) at altitudes ranging from 152.4 to 243.8m. While black and white film provided higher resolution, color positive film allowed us to see the outline of the turtle underwater at greater depths. Two turtles were measured during this experiment, one male (155.6 cm straight carapace length [SCL], 85.8 cm straight carapace width [SCW]) and one probable female (149 cm SCL, 81.1 cm SCW). As the first application of the aerial photogrammetry technique for measuring sea turtles, we demonstrate that this is a viable method for measuring turtles in other areas, particularly where capture is logistically difficult, in areas of high water clarity, and in areas of high turtle density.

Genetic analysis using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was performed on 47 sea turtle samples collected between 2002 and 2004 for the CA LL and 9 samples collected between 1997 and 1999 for the CA/OR DGN. A majority of the samples from both fisheries were made up of loggerhead turtles (43 of the CA LL and 5 of the CA/OR DGN). Two additional animals captured in the CA LL were leatherbacks. One green turtle, 2 leatherbacks and 1 olive ridley comprised the remaining animals caught in the CA/OR DGN. Stock origin of the samples collected in each of the fisheries was determined by comparing the mtDNA control region sequences with known haplotypes from key Pacific nesting beaches. All of the loggerheads from both fisheries were from the Japan nesting stock reinforcing previous findings that loggerheads found across various habitats in the North Pacific, in all life stages, are part of the Japanese nesting stock (Bowen et al. 1995 and Hatase et al. 2002). Each of the 5 leatherbacks were of Western Pacific origin, suggesting that leatherbacks migrate through and forage in areas of the fisheries in the North Pacific (Benson et al. 2004). The green turtle and the olive ridley from the CA/OR DNG were of Eastern Pacific origin implying that these animals have a higher propensity to journey away from coastal foraging areas to more pelagic areas (LeRoux et al. 2004). These results further our understanding of marine turtle migration and stock structure of foraging assemblages in the Pacific, however further sampling of nesting beaches is needed to continue to expand the rookery database, especially in the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean. Sampling from foraging areas is also needed in order to further expand our understanding of marine turtle stock structure and habitat use in the Pacific. Continued sampling from fisheries interactions is also essential to determine which stocks are affected by fishing efforts.

Of particular interest was how these measures relate to the size parameters of hooks fished in pelagic longline fisheries. We performed a series of repeated measures, both standard and specific to the oral cavity, on captive loggerheads (n = 30) at 45cm, 55cm, and 65cm standard straight carapace length (SCL), spanning the range of turtle size classes most often captured in western North Atlantic Ocean pelagic longline fisheries. Wild and captive turtles (n = 134), ranging in size from 35cm - 80cm SCL, were also measured in a non repeated measures study. These measures included: mass, SCL notch-to-notch (minimum) and notch-to-tip (maximum), straight carapace width (SCW), head length (HL), head width (HW), gape height, internal gape width, esophagus width (approximated at the anterior opening), upper jaw length and lower jaw length. Using a canine mouth gag to hold open the jaws, we took oral cavity measures with inside spring calipers and/or dial calipers. Measures were analyzed to investigate oral cavity ontogeny. Hooks used in pelagic longline fisheries were measured to compare how anatomical characters of the oral cavity relate to hook dimensions. We plan to examine mathematical relationships between standard and oral cavity measures to predict the ability of a known size turtle to ingest hooks. With this knowledge, we hope to prevent future incidental capture and mortality through mitigation measures.

Western Pacific leatherbacks migrate from nesting beaches in West Irian Jaya, Indonesia to multiple foraging grounds, including the west coast of North America. Leatherback sightings recorded during aerial surveys off the California coast during the 1990's indicated that up to 18% of western Pacific females utilize neritic waters off California annually, with greatest abundances occurring within a few oceanographic retention areas during late summer and fall. With this understanding, we designed fine-scale aerial surveys to study habitat associations of leatherbacks and their Scyphomedusae prey off central California. Oceanographic data were obtained from remotely sensed satellite sources and targeted in-situ shipboard sampling. We also equipped leatherbacks with satellite transmitters to monitor their movements within this coastal upwelling ecosystem. Leatherbacks aggregated only in areas with moderate to dense concentrations of large Chrysaora fuscescens, in shallow waters (30-60m) characterized by phytoplankton blooms and elevated surface temperatures. These conditions appear to arise from a complex sequence of physical and biological processes, driven primarily by upwelling and relaxation events. Areas of suitable habitat varied interannually, but the region off San Francisco Bay consistently supported the greatest number of leatherbacks and clearly represents critical foraging habitat for the Western Pacific population. The results of this study provide insight into physical and biological processes that may be important in other foraging areas, including less studied regions off Oregon and Washington and in the Western Pacific.

Although the primary cause of this syndrome is unknown, previous health findings indicate a wide range of secondary bacterial and parasitic infections. A standardized protocol was developed in 2004 to collect samples from debilitated turtles during necropsies or rehabilitation to measure health parameters and contaminants. Blood from living turtles, and liver and fat from dead turtles were collected for organohalogen contaminant (OC) analysis during 2004-2005. We measured the concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), pesticides, and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDEs) in 19 fat samples using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Respective mean PCB 153, capital sigma XPCB, 4,4'-DDE, and capital sigma PBDE concentrations were 20.3, 78.1, 15.3, and 1.00 ng/g wet mass; and 4030, 13800, 2610, and 167 ng/g lipid. Concentrations were generally highest in North Carolina (NC) turtles followed by South Carolina (SC), Georgia and Florida, suggesting that turtles inhabiting northern latitudes are more exposed to OCs. For example, mean capital sigma PCB concentrations were 22100 (n=4), 14500 (n=10), 6860 (n=4), and 3903 (n=1) ng/g lipid, respective of location. PCB 153 and 4,4'-DDE concentrations on a wet-mass basis were lower in the sick turtles than mean concentrations measured in fat biopsies collected from 44 apparently healthy turtles from NC in 2000-2001 (81.0 and 65.0 ng/g wet mass, respectively). However, the lipid-normalized PCB 153 and 4,4'-DDE values were seven times higher in the sick turtles compared to the healthy turtles (571 and 372 ng/g lipid, respectively). Geographical differences are not likely the reason, because healthy NC turtles are expected to have higher concentrations than southern turtles. Because OCs are lipophilic, lipid content and lipid mobilization may explain the differences observed between sick and healthy turtles. In other words, non-foraging debilitated turtles rely more on fat stores, and as fat is used, fat-soluble contaminants may be dumped into the blood. Mean lipid content in the fat of debilitated and healthy turtles was 0.745% and 27.9%, respectively, indicating that sick turtles do substantially mobilize their fat stores. Preliminary data indicate that contaminants are mobilized into the blood of debilitated turtles. Blood contaminant concentrations (ng/g wet mass) were similar to 15 times higher in 7 debilitated turtles (mean capital sigma PCB=70.9) than in 107 healthy turtles (4.50). These higher levels, circulating to target tissues, may contribute to the progression of this illness. Conversely, as turtles recover and replenish fat stores, contaminants may be re-sequestered into fat. Analysis of blood sampled at several time points during rehabilitation will help assess changes in blood contaminant concentrations during recovery.

Skeletochronology is becoming a standard technique for the assessment of individual growth rates in sea turtles. Here we present an analysis of the relationship between humerus dimension and somatic growth in loggerhead sea turtles, demonstrating that it is allometric, with a higher slope for small pelagic turtles and a lower slope for larger neritic turtles. The use of this relationship to accurately back-calculate carapace lengths from diameters of skeletal growth marks was validated with 12 loggerheads that were captured, tagged, released, and subsequently recovered as dead standings. We estimated the length at capture by back-calculating, using the diameter of the skeletal growth mark most representative of the time of capture as a predictor. The mean difference between the measured carapace length at capture and the estimated carapace length obtained through back-calculation was 0.8 cm plus or minus 0.3 S.E. For corresponding estimates of annual growth rate, the mean error was 0.3 cm/yr plus or minus 0.1 S.E. We suggest that, with proper application, back-calculation in combination with skeletochronology can be a powerful tool in studying the growth dynamics of individual sea turtles.

We examined effects of hook and animal size, behavior, baiting type and technique as these relate to loggerhead sea turtles' ability to swallow a baited hook. Researchers modified 14/0, 16/0, 18/0 and 20/0 circle hooks, removing the barb and wrapping the end to prevent injury, and baited ("single hooked" or "threaded") them with whole squid or sardines. Baited hooks (taken away before ingestion or injury) were offered to captive reared loggerheads (n=30 per size class) in three size classes (45, 55, and 65cm standard SCL). The turtle's reaction was recorded, and trials were videotaped to further elucidate behavioral details of the interaction. Results indicated that as hook size increased, the potential for full ingestion (and serious injury) decreased. Larger turtles were more likely to attempt ingestion of larger hooks. Turtles were less likely to attempt to ingest hooks baited with sardines than squid, or "single hooked" rather than "threaded". Results are likely due to differences in bait texture, shielding effects, and behavioral differences in how turtles respond to different hook/bait combinations. Smaller hooks baited with squid (the industry standard prior to recent rule modifications) pose a greater risk for serious injury/mortality. Fishing with larger circle hooks (18/0 or greater) single baited with finfish would reduce injury or mortality resulting from incidental capture.

Bald Head Island is one of the most northern, high density nesting beaches for the northern subpopulation of loggerhead sea turtles on the east coast of the U.S.A. Data collected over the 26 years includes critical information on adult females, nests, and hatchling success. Three key life history parameters and associated variances were estimated from these data to better understand loggerhead population dynamics and for incorporation into population management models. Clutch size relative to female carapace measurements was estimated to determine a possible correlation. The relationship between clutch size and order of nests from an individual female within and between seasons was also explored. The third component analyzed was an estimation of female survival over time based on 15 years of tagging data. Preliminary analysis indicates a time independent survival rate of 0.814 (SE = 0.003) and a recapture rate of 0.086 (SE = 0.012). The demographic parameters calculated in this study were also compared with parameters in the current literature, providing information about the ecology of the northern subpopulation. These findings increase both our ecological understanding of the subpopulation as well as our ability to examine the likely effects of alternative management actions on the population through improved population models.

For the past 3 years, the TAMAR program has been monitoring sea turtle bycatch in all of Brazil's fisheries and has aimed to identify areas with high concentration of bycatch and to work within fishing communities to minimize the threats of fisheries for pelagic-stage turtles. This presentation will focus on results of experimental field trials aimed to determine the effects of large (18/0) circle hooks on CPUE of sea turtles and target-species in the longline fishery. The species primarily caught in this fishery is Caretta caretta, which apparently bite baited hooks, and secondly Dermochelys coriacea, which primarily become entangled in the line. The experiments were conducted on commercial vessels (on a volunteer-basis) and also on a federal research vessel. Rates of turtle capture and location of hook were compared between large circle hooks and traditional 9/0 J hooks. Hooks used in experiments alternated along sets. Preliminary data from 9 trips (approximately 50,000 hooks) suggest that 18/0 circle hooks appear promising to reduce the incidental capture of sea turtles while simultaneously not negatively influencing the productivity of the fishery. Swordfish sizes are also believed to be larger when caught on 18/0 circle hooks as compared to 9/0 J hooks. Furthermore, use of circle hooks likely increases the probability for survivorship of Caretta caretta post-release due to the finding that more turtles are caught in the jaw rather than ingesting the hook. We will also report on findings of loggerhead movements and survivorship after their release from longline gear as determined by both PSATs tracking mechanisms. Of major significance to this work is the excellent working relationship among the various stakeholders--fishermen, conservation groups, fish exporters, and European fish importers, all of whom are working cooperatively to promote the use of "turtle-friendly" fishing practices in the longline fishing industry.

Turtle injuries can occur while the dredge is fishing or when the catch is dumped on deck. On-deck injuries can be directly observed, whereas in-water injuries are more difficult to document. The purpose of this poster is to evaluate the evidence for injurious in-water and on-deck interactions between scallop dredges and sea turtles. Comments recorded by observers from the Northeast Fisheries Science Center's Fisheries Sampling Branch and from observers associated with industry gear trials allowed us to categorize injured turtles into three groups: those injured prior to the gear being brought on board, those injured on deck, and those where the origin of the injury was unclear. We also examined the injury pattern observed in an experiment that placed turtle carcasses in the path of fishing dredges. We then used the information about injury patterns associated with documented in-water and on-deck sources to evaluate cases where injury sources are unknown. Although this evidence suggests that injurious in-water turtle-dredge interactions likely occur in this fishery, our ability to estimate the percentage of sea turtle injuries from dredge interactions in-water versus on-deck remains severely limited by the low sample sizes of injuries with known sources, variety of injury patterns, and frequency of unknown information in observer records. The National Marine Fisheries Service and the scallop industry are continuing to investigate ways to estimate the level of in-water injuries and develop methods to reduce in-water and on-deck injuries.

Leatherback turtle populations have been in decline for years throughout the Western Pacific region. Concern was raised at the local and international level as to the viability of the remaining populations along the northern coast of Papua, New Guinea. The KWMA is about 60 km southeast of Lae City, Papua New Guinea, and hosts a significant population of leatherback turtles. Monitoring of leatherback nesting within the KWMA started in 1999 and has continued until present. The initial objectives were to determine the nesting population size and develop management strategies which would allow a sustainable egg harvest by the Kamiali community. The overall long-term goals of the program are to protect and increase the leatherback population size and raise local peoples' understanding and appreciation of the value of the species for present and future generations. During the 2005-2006 nesting season, the sampling area expanded to three km for better estimates of nesting activity. In addition, daily surveys were conducted starting in 2003-2004 to count the number of nesting crawls along the entire 10 km nesting beach. While nesting trends have gradually risen from 50 nests in 2000 to 197 in 2004-2005, much of this is due to spatial and temporal improvements of monitoring efforts.

In the North Pacific, loggerheads carry out an extensive developmental migration, often traveling from nesting areas in Japan to distant developmental and foraging habitats in the eastern Pacific. Loggerhead turtles in the Pacific are adversely impacted by a variety of activities including incidental capture in commercial fisheries, boat strikes, debris ingestion, and intentional harvest. These impacts have prompted calls for increased research and protection of loggerheads in this region. To address this need, we carried out aerial surveys for loggerhead turtles along the Pacific Coast of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico - an area long thought to be critical habitat for juveniles. The project was a US - Mexico binational effort with cooperating institutions from government, academic, and nongovernmental sectors. Surveys were carried out from September to October 2005 and encompassed nearly 7,000 km of track-line with offshore extents to 170 km. More than 400 turtles were sighted. Loggerheads were the most prevalent (77% of all sightings). Olive ridleys (12%), green turtles (7%), and leatherback turtles (<1%) were also sighted. Approximately 4% of all turtle sightings were unidentified. We estimate 10's of thousands of loggerhead turtles were present in the spatial and temporal scope of these surveys. Combined with our ongoing water-based demographic studies and satellite telemetry efforts, this project has further demonstrated the value of Baja California's Pacific Coast for loggerhead turtles.

SNPs are a recently developed type of genetic marker that have the potential to improve and simplify current genotyping methods and eliminate the variability of microsatellite genotypes due to technological and financial differences between labs. In addition, these markers can be used to build on previous studies that used mtDNA, RFLP and microsatellite markers in order to further our understanding of sea turtle population structure, evolution and molecular ecology. DNA extracts from 35 green turtles sampled in Caribbean, East Pacific, Central Pacific, and Indo-Pacific locations were used for two methods of SNP discovery. The first approach employed amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) techniques to generate random fragments of DNA. The second technique utilized a microsatellite library to screen sequences of DNA segments not containing microsatellites. Site specific primers were designed for eight candidate clones from the microsatellite library and used to amplify identical regions, ranging in size from approximately 400-600 bp, across a set of individuals. The resulting homologous sequences were compared across green turtles and any nucleotide difference at a single point along the linear sequences was indicative of a SNP. Approximately 3300 bases were screened resulting in the discovery of 30 SNPs, or an average of one SNP every 110 bp. SNPs ranged in frequency from 0.02 to 0.5. One SNP will be chosen from each locus to generate a set of 8 independent SNP markers. These markers will be used to assess green turtle population structure in the Pacific and tested for utility for the other sea turtle species.

Despite the oft-promulgated generalities about sea turtle diet strategies (i.e. green turtles are herbivores, hawksbills are spongivores, etc), recent data have demonstrated that a sea turtle's diet may vary both spatially and temporally. Therefore, when developing conceptual models to illustrate the ecological role of sea turtles, it is important that this variability be elucidated to better describe the complex ecological interactions between sea turtles and their environment. In recent years, stable isotope tools have proven successful at determining the trophic status and consumer-prey relationships of a variety of marine species because the isotope compositions of consumer body tissues are ultimately derived from those in its diet. By providing information on nutrients assimilated over extended periods, stable isotope analyses offer an advantage over conventional dietary analyses that only provide dietary 'snapshots' of recently consumed food items. In this study we use stable isotope analyses to determine the trophic status of sea turtles in the eastern Pacific Ocean. We provide three case studies, focusing on green turtles, leatherbacks, and olive ridleys, and demonstrate how stable isotopes can be used to further our understanding of the ecological roles of sea turtles. Our results provide new insights about inter- and intra-species variability in trophic ecology and further support the Niche Mosaic Concept as applied to sea turtles.

Records of sea turtle strandings (live and dead) off California have been collected since 1982 by a network of individuals and organizations dedicated to responding to stranded marine wildlife. This paper provides the first detailed summary of the California sea turtle stranding network and an analysis of stranding data in California since information was first collected in 1982. From 1982 through 2004, a total of 274 sea turtles have stranded in California. Of this total, approximately 35.8% were leatherbacks, 34.3% were green turtles, 13.5% were olive ridleys, 11.7% were loggerheads, and 4.7% were of unknown identification. Analyses of the data reflect spatial and seasonal patterns of strandings with annual variations, and these patterns are coincident with incidental capture in fisheries, at-sea observations, and other available information. Documented causes for strandings include: entrainment in power plants (18%), illness-related (9.1%), boat collisions (8.3%), fisheries interactions (6.6%), and marine debris (1.8%). Nearly 55% of sea turtle strandings were due to unknown or undocumented causes, which is cause for concern since valuable information may be lost from these strandings. In order to address these concerns and improve response to sea turtle strandings and data collected by the network, NOAA Fisheries' Southwest Regional Office (SWRO) held a two-day sea turtle stranding and necropsy workshop in August, 2005. Representatives from the stranding network and NOAA Fisheries' SWRO and Science Centers (La Jolla and Honolulu), as well as invited wildlife veterinarians, participated in the workshop. Following recommendations made at the workshop, the SWRO, with assistance from the Marine Turtle Research Program, NOAA Fisheries, in La Jolla, will establish a protocol of data collection on live and dead-stranded sea turtles, in addition to standardizing and designing a U.S. west coast sea turtle stranding form. In addition, there is a critical need to synthesize information collected on dead sea turtles, including necropsy results. SWRO will investigate existing and potential collaborators or contractors that can serve as the recipient of all stranding and necropsy results, synthesize and summarize known information and make recommendations for future collections. SWRO has also worked to identify facilities within the stranding network to respond to sea turtles that strand dead in Orange, LA, and Ventura counties. Furthermore, the SWRO will work with the offshore Channel Islands to increase reporting and response to stranded sea turtles and consider the logistics of transporting live-stranded sea turtles that may need rehabilitation on the mainland.

The recovery of this population has been largely attributed to a boost in hatchling production by relocation of nests that are laid close to the tideline and classified as "doomed nests". Nest relocation is a very labor intensive process and some researchers have even questioned the long-term evolutionary consequences of relocating so-called doomed nests. Additionally, hatching success of relocated nests tends to be on average lower than in situ nests. Therefore, in this study, we develop a model that incorporates 1) processes affecting hatchling production on the St. Croix nesting beach and 2) recent survival estimates for St. Croix hatchlings to adulthood, to determine the trajectory of the nesting population if no nests or fewer doomed nests had been relocated. Outcomes of the models are used to recommend management strategies for Jamursba-Medi Beach in Papua, Indonesia, which is one of the last strongholds for leatherbacks in the Pacific and where nest inundation and predation greatly lower hatching success.

Increased ridley nesting at Rancho Nuevo, Mexico has been complemented by commencement and growth of nesting on the Texas (USA) coast. This activity has grown from 1-2 nests annually prior to 1995 to a record 51 in 2005 (D. Shaver, pers. comm.), with most of these occurring on the lower Texas coast. Five nests laid on the upper Texas coast in 2004 and eight in 2005 suggest a northern expansion of the nesting range and increased survival among immature and adult conspecifics. Although beach monitoring is crucial to estimating nesting population size and activity, at-sea data are essential for evaluating management strategies and understanding in-water dynamics of all life history stages. The Kemp's Ridley Recovery Plan lists determining "seasonal use of nearshore habitat by juveniles/subadults" and determining "migratory paths and foraging areas" as necessary components of a strategy to achieve this species' recovery, but such data are currently sparse. Eight Kemp's ridleys were outfitted with satellite transmitters and released off the upper Texas coast during 2004-2005. These were comprised of three juveniles caught on recreational hook-and-line gear, one juvenile captured in a dredge relocation trawl, and one rehabilitated subadult, as well as two "headstarted" females and one wild (non-headstarted) female that nested on Galveston Island during 16-30 May 2005. Duration of satellite tracks ranged from 12 to 59 days (average = 37.8 days, SD = 15.6 days, n = 8). The five immature ridleys frequented Sabine Pass, Texas; Calcasieu Pass, Louisiana; and waters near upper Texas coast fishing piers during September-November 2004 and May-October 2005. Ultrasounds of the adult females indicated that each possessed developing egg follicles after her first documented nest, and satellite locations indicated that all three exhibited fidelity to the Galveston area during May-June 2005. One tracked individual was intercepted nesting a second time on Galveston Island on 20 June, whereas ultrasound results and satellite tracks suggested that the other two females each nested at least once during June 2005. The only female tracked during July 2005 had migrated about 250 km east of Galveston Island into waters offshore of Louisiana when transmissions ceased on 19 July. Although relatively short, these satellite tracks suggested that tidal passes and areas near fishing piers were important seasonal foraging areas for immature Kemp's ridleys in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico during 2004-2005. Additionally, three nesting females exhibited fidelity to Gulf and bay waters off Galveston Island during the 2005 nesting season, supporting previous indications of a northern expansion of the Kemp's ridley's nesting range. Transmissions over longer durations are necessary to further examine the migrations and habitat preferences of both immature and post-nesting ridleys. Various measures, including use of anti-fouling paint and a different antenna orientation, will be taken to increase the life of satellite transmitters deployed during 2006-2007.

Although once common, their large size, high fecundity, and gregarious nesting, made P. expansa especially vulnerable to over-harvesting for eggs and meat. Populations have been severely reduced or extirpated in many areas throughout its range, and the species is now regulated under Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species. Here, we analyse data from mitochondrial DNA sequence and multiple nuclear microsatellite markers with an array of complementary analytical methods. Results show that concordance from multiple data sets and analyses can provide a strong signal of population genetic structure that can be used to guide management. The general lack of phylogeographic structure but large differences in allele and haplotype frequencies among river basins is consistent with fragmented populations and female natal-river homing. Overall, the DNA data show that P. expansa populations lack a long history of genetic differentiation, but that each major tributary currently forms a semi-isolated reproductive population and should be managed accordingly.

A more accurate and long time series of land surface data is very important for real-time drought monitoring, for understanding land surface-atmosphere interaction, and for improving weather and climate prediction. Thus, the ultimate goal of the present work is to produce a long-term 'land reanalysis' with 1) retrospective and 2) real-time update components that are both generated in a manner that remains temporally homogeneous throughout the record. As the first step of the above goal, the retrospective component is reported here. Specifically, a 51-yr (1948-98) set of hourly land surface meteorological forcing is produced and used to execute the Noah land surface model, all on the 1/8 degree grid of the North American Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS). The surface forcing includes air temperature, air humidity, surface pressure, wind speed, and surface downward shortwave and longwave radiation, all derived from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction-National Center For Atmospheric Research (NCEP-NCAR) Global Reanalysis. Additionally, a newly improved precipitation analysis is used to provide realistic hourly precipitation forcing on the NLDAS grid. Some unique procedures are described and applied to yield retroactive forcing that is temporally homogeneous over the 51 yr at the spatial and temporal resolution, including a terrain height adjustment that accounts for the terrain differences between the global reanalysis and the NLDAS. The land model parameters and fixed fields are derived from existing high-resolution datasets of vegetation, soil, and orography. The land reanalysis output from the Noah land surface model consists of eight energy balance components and skin temperature, which are output at 3-hourly intervals, and 15 other variables (i.e., water balance components, surface state variables, etc.), which are output at daily intervals for the period of 1 January 1948 through 31 December 1998. Using soil moisture observations throughout Illinois over 1984-98 as validation, an improvement in the simulated soil moisture (of the Noah model versus a forerunner leaky bucket model) is illustrated in terms of an improved annual cycle (much better phasing) and somewhat higher anomaly correlation for the anomalies, especially in central and southern Illinois. Nonetheless, considerable room for model improvement remains. For example, the simulated anomalies are overly uniform in the vertical compared to the observations, and some likely routes for model improvement in this aspect are proposed.

It is shown that for realistic numbers of loci and alleles, the linkage disequilibrium method can provide precision comparable to that of the temporal method. However, computer simulations show that estimates of N sub(e) based on [Equation] for unlinked, diallelic gene loci are sharply biased downwards ([Equation] in some cases) if sample size (S) is less than true N sub(e). The bias is shown to arise from inaccuracies in published formula for [Equation] when S and/or N sub(e) are small. Empirically derived modifications to [Equation] for two mating systems (random mating and lifetime monogamy) effectively eliminate the bias (residual bias in [Equation]% in most cases). The modified method also performs well in estimating N sub(e) in non-ideal populations with skewed sex ratio or non-random variance in reproductive success. Recent population declines are not likely to seriously affect [Equation], but if N has recently increased from a bottleneck [Equation] can be biased downwards for a few generations. These results should facilitate application of the disequilibrium method for estimating contemporary N sub(e) in natural populations. However, a comprehensive assessment of performance of [Equation] with highly polymorphic markers such as microsatellites is needed.

ENSO has been viewed as a self-sustained and naturally oscillatory mode or a stable mode triggered by stochastic forcing. Whatever the case, El Nino involves Bjerknes' positive ocean-atmosphere feedback that culminates with warm sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the equatorial eastern and' central Pacific. After an El Nino reaches its mature phase, negative feedbacks are required to terminate the growth of warm SST anomalies. Four major negative feedbacks have been proposed: wave reflection at the ocean western boundary, a discharge process due to Sverdrup transport, a western Pacific wind-forced Kelvin wave of opposite sign, and anomalous zonal advection. These negative feedbacks may work in varying combinations to terminate El Nino, and reverse it into La Nina. The seasonal cycle can contribute to the irregularity and phase-locking of ENSO, and the intraseasonal variability can be a source of both ENSO's variability and irregularity. Tropical Pacific decadai-multidecadal variability and warming trends may modulate ENSO. Many mechanisms have been proposed to explain tropical Pacific decadai-multidecadal variability, and they are categorized by their tropical origins and tropical-extratropical connections. Mechanisms of tropical origins include stochastic forcing, interactions between the seasonal and interannual cycles, internal nonlinearity, asymmetry between El Nino and La Nina, and local ocean-atmosphere interaction, while those of tropical-extratropical connections involve oceanic bridges, wave propagation, and atmospheric bridges. Difficulties and uncertainties of studies on low-frequency variability and interpretation of warming trends, global warming, and ENSO are also discussed.

It examines the recent inclusion of afforestation and reforestation programs as eligible CDM projects for the first commitment period. It also investigates the socioeconomic and environmental implications of CDM forestry projects on landowners' land use decisions. The forestry sector in the Philippines offers good potential and attractive investment opportunities for CDM projects. A landowner's survey was carried out in Quezon, Philippines to assess the different factors that influence landowners in engaging in CDM forestry projects. The survey, although with a limited sample, revealed that small landholders take economic and environmental benefits as well as costs of tree-growing systems as important decision-making factors. Reluctance on CDM forestry projects was, in part, due to inadequacy of climate change and CDM-related information disseminated among landholders and farmers. In light of these findings, the report suggested a framework to give different parties involved in the implementation of afforestation and reforestation projects under CDM the idea of how to entice landowners in devoting their lands for CDM projects.

We use our Advanced Hydrologic Prediction System with some conditions estimated for this period. We use dynamic lake areas (which vary with lake depth) to correct modeled over-lake precipitation, runoff, and lake evaporation, and neglect existing diversions and consumptions. We use simple shifts in precipitation, air temperature, and humidity, relative to the present base climate, with 52 years of daily historical meteorology. For steady-state analysis of the interconnected Great Lakes, we employ lake outflow-depth rating curves (using estimated sill elevations) reasonable for a natural system and combine with a water balance for all the lakes connected by their channels. We consider the upper and lower Great Lakes separately with no river connection, as in the early Holocene basin configuration. We identify candidate climates that result in closed lakes by looking at lake outflows and levels, demonstrating that climate may have been the mechanism creating terminal lake status in the past. The lakes would close in the order: Erie, Superior, Michigan-Huron, and Ontario for increasingly drier and warmer climates. For a temperature rise of T [degrees]C and a precipitation drop of P % relative to the present base climate, conditions for complete lake closure range from 4.7T + P > 51 for Erie to 3.5T + P > 71 for Ontario.

US federal states share about 50% of their permanent idiosyncratic risk through cross-state capital income flows. While insurance against transitory fluctuations in output is virtually complete, OECD countries do not share any of their permanent idiosyncratic risk. Our results suggest that purely transaction cost based theories cannot explain the home bias, since the potential welfare gains from insurance against permanent shocks would by far outweigh that of insuring against transitory variation. We conclude that permanent and transitory shocks constitute two qualitatively different kinds of risk and that various forms of endogenous market incompleteness may render permanent shocks a lot harder to insure, in particular at the international level.

MHC genes have been shown to be under selection in a number of vertebrate taxa, making them intriguing for population genetic studies. We have conducted a survey of genetic variation in an MHC class II gene for steelhead trout from 24 sites in coastal California and compared this variation to that observed at 16 presumably neutral microsatellite loci. A high amount of allelic variation was observed at the MHC when compared to previously published studies on other Pacific salmonids. Elevated nonsynonymous substitutions, relative to synonymous substitutions, were detected at the MHC gene, indicating the signature of historical balancing selection. The MHC data were tested for correlations to and deviations from the patterns found with the microsatellite data. Estimates of allelic richness for the MHC gene and for the microsatellites were positively correlated, as were estimates of population differentiation (F sub(ST)). An analysis for F sub(ST) outliers indicates that the MHC locus has an elevated F sub(ST) relative to the neutral expectation, although a significant result was found for only one particular geographical subgroup. Relatively uniform allele frequency distributions were detected in four populations, although this finding may be partially due to recent population bottlenecks. These results indicate that, at the scale studied here, drift and migration play a major role in the observed geographical variability of MHC genes in steelhead, and that contemporary selection is relatively weak and difficult to detect.

Of particular interest for regional air quality is photochemical production and nocturnal destruction of O sub(3) in the lower troposphere in high NO sub(x)(=NO + NO sub(2)) environments. Nocturnal tropospheric odd oxygen (O sub(x)), defined as O sub(3) + NO sub(2) + 2NO sub(3) + 3N sub(2)O sub(5), is used to assess the impact of NO sub(x) emissions on nocturnal O sub(3) loss. Recent aircraft measurements of the components of O sub(x) and HNO sub(3) yield a detailed accounting of the nocturnal O sub(x) budget in a regionally polluted environment. The analysis demonstrates the role of NO sub(3) and N sub(2)O sub(5) reactions in nocturnal O sub(3) destruction and shows that multiple factors, including timing of NO sub(x) emissions, hydrocarbon and aerosol loading, seasonality and atmospheric mixing, govern the impact of NO sub(x) emissions on regional-scale air quality.

Percentage cover of corals was quantified by genus or species in forereef, backreef, and lagoon habitats and at La Perouse Pinnacles using three complementary methods: towed-diver surveys, video transects, and photoquadrats. Habitat-specific colony density and size-class distributions from measurements made within belt transects at fixed sites indicated that three coral genera, Porites, Pocillopora, and Acropora, accounted for more than 93% of total coral cover throughout the atoll, and their relative percentage cover, densities, and size distributions varied according to habitat and geographic location within the atoll. These descriptive data, which provide the most comprehensive overview yet of the scleractinian coral community at FFS, were used to assess the coral reefs' potential for resistance and resilience to selective stressors including bleaching, disease, and Acanthaster outbreaks. They also serve as a baseline for an ecosystem-based, long-term monitoring program with an objective of linking coral community change to other biological and physical factors.

Sampling of juvenile fish was conducted approximately quarterly from April 2000 through February 2002. Ten cross-shelf stations, approximately 18.5 Km apart, were sampled during most cruises. The environmental variables showed the typical seasonal and depth patterns across the shelf. During the spring, bottom water temperature was near 20 degree C across the entire shelf. The number and extent of cross-shelf regions varied seasonally, but in general, three regions were identified namely, inner-shelf, mid-shelf, and outer-shelf regions. Juvenile assemblages were associated with the regions, yet some individual species were distributed across the regions. It is concluded that management efforts should be improved through a greater recognition of the potential importance of these habitats to fisheries production and the inetrconnectedness of multiple habitats in the southeast U.S. continental shelf ecosystem.

AN - 36339820; 11974 AB - PURPOSE: Construction of a new office complex at the 3,221-acre Canaan Valley Institute (CVI) Complex near Davis, West Virginia is proposed. CVI undertakes research and professional and public education focusing on ecological and environmental issues, particularly with respect to ecological restoration. Existing CVI offices do not provide sufficient space or facilities to address the mission of the organization. The proposed facility development would be funded by a grant from the National Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration. Facilities to be provided include offices, classrooms, laboratories, a 250-seat auditorium, parking facilities, outdoor classrooms, and interpretive areas. As part of the project, an access road would be constructed leading from a major highway to the complex. The facility would be a "zero-discharge" installation, incorporating composting and living machine/drip irrigation systems to treat solid and liquid wastes. In addition to the No-Build Alternative, this final EIS addresses three facilities expansion site alternatives and seven access road routing alternatives. Facility Site 1 (Rocky Point) lies on the peak of Rocky Point at an elevation of 3,600 feet. A flat area at the peak of the mountain would provide adequate space for the location of the facility proposed. Facility Site 2 (Bearden Know) lies on the peak of Bearden Knob at an elevation of 3,700 feet. The flat area at the peak is much smaller than the area provided at sites 1 and 2. Facility Site 3 (Yellow Creek), which is identified as the preferred alternative, lies at an elevation of 3,200 feet near the West Virginia (WV) 93 crossing of Beaver Creek; once again the topography would provide an adequate space for the proposed facility. The preferred access road routing alternative routing alternative (Alternative G) would provide access from the northeast off WV 93. The road would begin approximately 1,000 feet northeast of the WV 93 bridge over Beaver Creek and extend northeast of a large wetland adjacent to Beaver Creek and southeast to the access to the Yellow Creek Site. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The preferred alternative would provide modern office, teaching, and research facilities for a growing number of Canaan Valley Institute employees and researchers; provide students and researchers with a large tract of terrestrial and aquatic habitat for outdoor classrooms and research; and provide a unique experience for visitors with access to outdoor classrooms. Outdoor classrooms would provide a unique experience for visitors with access to outdoor classrooms. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The physical footprint of the complex would displace four acres of natural area, while the access road would disturb another five to 20 acres. Habitat for Indiana bat would decline by as much as 18.2 acres and research areas would suffer up to 12.3 acres of long-term impacts. From 6.9 to 41.7 acres of terrestrial habitat would be lost.

The spatial distribution is considered as a function of factors affecting a population. The model includes both linear and non-linear modeling mechanisms, which allow description of a variety of environmental situations observed in nature. All components of the model are conceptually connected with one another and based on one methodological basis. This allows development of the integrative picture of mathematical modeling of spatial population dynamics. The theoretical portion of the paper presents logical structures and mathematical equations for numeric modeling of a population distribution in a habitat. The practical portion describes the application of the integrative model to the study of the spatial distribution of fry of Brown trout (Salmon trutta L.) in the experimental conditions. The integrative model represents a standardized and reliable method for studying spatial population dynamics applicable to a variety of populations of different species. This method offers a comprehensive algorithm of steps which one should take in order to predict spatial distribution of organisms. It also outlines the information necessary for mathematical modeling of spatial population dynamics. Through systematization of the modeling process, the integrative model aims to enhance the understanding and use of mathematical modeling in environmental sciences and ecology in general.

The delphinid sighting data and environmental data were collected simultaneously during the Southwest Fisheries Science Center's cetacean line-transect surveys conducted during the summer and fall of 1986-1990 and 1993. Predictions from the encounter rate and group size models were combined with previously published estimates of line-transect sighting parameters to describe patterns in the density (number of individuals per unit area) of delphinids throughout the study area. Areas with the highest predicted densities were the Gulf of California, the equatorial cold tongue, and coastal waters, including the west coast of the Baja Peninsula and the Costa Rica Dome. Offshore waters in the northern and southern subtropical gyres had the lowest predicted densities. For both encounter rate and group size models, there was no geographic pattern evident in the residuals as measured by the ratio of pooled predicted to pooled observed values within geographic strata.

6818100 AB - As part of an ongoing ecological assessment of the Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary (GRNMS), a 58-km super(2) marine protected area 32 km off the coast of Georgia, USA, surveys of benthic macroinfaunal communities, contaminant levels in sediments and biota, and general habitat conditions were conducted during 2000-2002 at 20 stations within the sanctuary and along three cross-shelf transects in nearby shelf waters. Macroinfaunal community structure and composition exhibited distinct cross-shelf patterns associated with sediment granulometry, depth and possibly other factors related to shoreline proximity (e.g., erosional effects, recruitment of estuarine species). Finer-scale spatial patterns of benthic fauna among stations within the sanctuary appear to be related to proximity to live-bottom habitat and other features of seafloor structure (e.g., rippled vs. flat sand). Population densities of dominant fauna within the sanctuary also varied considerably among years, resulting in shifts in the ranking of dominants at most stations. Chemical contaminants generally were at low background concentrations below probable bioeffect levels and thus are not a likely cause of the observed spatial patterns of benthic fauna. However, trace concentrations of pesticides, PCBs, and PAHs were detectable in sediments and biota throughout the study area, demonstrating that chemicals originating from human activities are capable of reaching the offshore sanctuary environment, possibly from atmospheric deposition or cross-shelf transport of materials outwelled through coastal sounds. Highly diverse infaunal assemblages also were observed within the sanctuary and nearby sites of similar depth, suggesting that the sanctuary is an important reservoir of marine biodiversity. Results of this study should be useful in addressing long-term science and management needs of the GRNMS and in furthering our understanding of broader ecological patterns and dynamics of the surrounding South Atlantic Bight (SAB) ecosystem.

AN - 16366454; 11947 AB - PURPOSE: The issuance of a Certificate of Pubic Convenience and Necessity for the construction of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) deepwater port and associated anchorages in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana is proposed the port facility proposed by the applicant, Freeport-MoRan Energy LLC, would lie approximately 16 miles southeast of the coast of Louisiana in Outer Continental Shelf Block MP 299, in water depth of 210 feet. A gas pipeline junction platform, also part of the port, would be located 40 miles off the Mississippi coast in MP 1164. The affected shoreline would include Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. The port, capable of unloading LNG carriers of up to 160,000 cubic meters capacity, would be designed to accommodate a nominal capacity of 7.0 million metric tons of LNG (the equivalent of 350 billion cubic feet) per year. This annual LNG throughput would equate to a nominal vaporization capacity of 1.0 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd). The vaporization facilities would provide for a peak capacity of 1.6 bcfd to allow additional supply during peak periods of demand. Storage facilities for LNG would include six tanks having a combined capacity of 145,000 cubic meters. In addition, three salt caverns would be available for temporary storage of 27.9 billion standard cubic feet. The facility would be supported by six natural gas and gas liquid pipelines, extending a total of 192 miles. Five natural gas takeaway pipeline would connect the port with existing gas distribution pipelines. Four natural gas pipelines would terminate offshore, and one pipeline would terminate onshore near Coden, Alabama. The natural gas liquids (NGL) pipeline would connect the port to a fractionating facility near Venice, Louisiana, where the gas liquids would be separated for sale. In addition to the proposed action and a No Action Alternative, this final EIS addresses alternatives for port siting, pipeline routes, LNG revaporization technology, and fabrication yard sites. POSITIVE IMPACTS: The port would help meet the existing and estimated regional and national demand for natural gas supplies by increasing access to sources worldwide. Construction and operation, respectively would increase short-term and long-term employment rolls. NEGATIVE IMPACTS: Routine offshore operations would degrade ambient water and air quality and increase noise levels in the area, and construction activities, particularly the laying of pipeline, would be particularly detrimental to water quality over the short-term. Federally protected sea turtles, marine mammals, fish, and migratory birds would be negatively affected. Localized populations of fish species would be impacted, but these impacts would not have larger population effects. Construction of the Alabama pipeline route alternatives would result in long-term loss of vegetation, including wildlife habitat, as well as disproportionately affecting minority and low-income residents. Significant archaeological resources could be lost during the construction phase, though an archaeological survey has made avoidance of any crucial resources likely. Creation of a 5-mile safety zone in the vicinity of the port terminal would result in limited displacement of recreational and commercial fishing LEGAL MANDATES: Deepwater Port Act of 1974 (22 U.S.C. 1501-1524), Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.), Natural Gas Act (15 U.S.C. 717 f(c)), and River and Harbor Act of 1899 (33 U.S.C. 401 et seq.).

AN - 67856125; 16610588 AB - A single dose (40 mg kg(-1)) of erythromycin or azithromycin dihydrate was injected intraperitoneally into maturing female fall Chinook salmon 12 to 32 d before spawning to observe the distribution, retention and clearance of the drugs in plasma, kidney, coelomic fluid and egg vitellin, and their persistence in alevins derived from these fish. Salmon administered prophylactic dosages of erythromycin as subadults were also included to investigate potential interactive effects of oral and injected treatments on reproductive performance and antibiotic clearance. Erythromycin was rapidly cleared from plasma and coelomic fluid, but was detected in the kidney (3.52 to 12.40 microg g(-1)) and egg vitellin (5.32 to 8.87 microg ml(-1)) of all fish at spawning. High, stable concentrations of azithromycin were detected in plasma (14.66 to 20.33 microg ml(-1)), kidney (43.16 to 59.96 microg g(-1)), coelomic fluid (2.52 to 5.50 microg ml(-1)) and egg vitellin (12.65 to 23.51 microg ml(-1)). Oral administration of erythromycin to subadult salmon did not significantly affect tissue concentrations of either erythromycin or azithromycin administered by prespawning injection. Reductions in the percentage of eggs that yielded live embryos at the eyed stage of development occurred among eggs derived from females that had received orally administered erythromycin as subadults. Erythromycin was not detected in unfed fry derived from adults injected with the drug prespawning, but azithromycin was present for more than 2 mo after the onset of exogenous feeding.

AN - 85294638; pmid-16583885 AB - In this paper, long-range propagation of low-frequency sound through an ocean waveguide with random inhomogeneities in the sound speed is studied. Closed equations for the mean field and correlation function of the sound field are derived using the Chernov method. These equations can be considered as a generalization of equations derived by Dozier and Tappert [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 63, 353-365 (1978)], which accounts for 3D effects and cross-modal correlations. The equations derived in this paper in a general form are similar to the equations obtained by many other authors. However, without simplifications these equations are difficult to solve even numerically due to high dimension of the matrices appearing in the equations. Some simplifications of the equations for the mean field and correlation function are suggested that account for narrowness of the angular spectrum of the scattered acoustic field and which make these equations amenable for numerical implementation. To study solutions of the simplified equations, they are additionally averaged along the sound propagation path. This allows us to obtain some analytical results. Using the theory developed, the horizontal coherence length of the sound field is estimated for the GM spectrum of internal waves.

AN - 67703513; 16343621 AB - Three life stages of larval grass shrimp were tested to determine whether acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity expressed as 24-h sublethal effect endpoints (EC20 and EC50) could be used to predict 96-h mortality (lowest observable effect concentration (LOEC) and LC50) for shrimp exposed to three organophosphate insecticides. With regard to mortality, newly hatched larvae and 18-day-old larvae were the most sensitive in the malathion and azinphosmethyl exposures. In the chlorpyrifos exposures, newly hatched larvae and postlarvae were the most sensitive life stages. Results of the 24-h AChE inhibition tests showed that newly hatched larvae were generally more sensitive in the three organophosphate exposures. A regression analysis of the EC50's and LC50's yielded the strongest correlation with R2=0.987 (correlation coefficient=0.994 and 95% confidence intervals 0.969-0.999). The LOEC/EC20 relationship yielded R2=0.962. For these grass shrimp life stages and pesticides, sublethal effect endpoints could be used as a predictor of 96-h mortality.

Rapid changes and advances in information and communication technology (ICT) equipment have resulted in these assets having short useful lives and a tendency to be replaced much quicker than other types of equipment. Companies are expensing the full cost of such assets during the current annual period rather than capitalizing the value of such assets and expensing the cost over two or more years.

Before the 1960s, Barrow and Nome were dominated by Arctic air masses and St. Paul was dominated by North Pacific maritime air masses. After the 1960s, the SAT correlation in winter between Barrow and St. Paul increased from 0.2 to 0.7 and between Nome and St. Paul from 0.4 to 0.8, implying greater north-south penetration of both air masses. The correlation change in the winter of the Barrow-St. Paul pair is significant at a 95% confidence level. The Nome-St. Paul pair in spring also shows some of this characteristic change in correlation. Relatively stable, high correlations are found among the stations in the fall; correlations are low in the summer. Our study shows a change in the climatological structure of the Bering Sea in the late twentieth century, at present of unknown origin and occurring earlier than the well-known 1976/1977 shift. These climatological results further support the concept that the southeast Bering Sea ecosystem may have been dominated by Arctic species for most of the century, with a gradual replacement by sub-Arctic species in the last 30 years.

Here, we show that these ecosystems are shifting away from these characteristics. Changes in biological communities are contemporaneous with shifts in regional atmospheric and hydrographic forcing. In the past decade, geographic displacement of marine mammal population distributions has coincided with a reduction of benthic prey populations, an increase in pelagic fish, a reduction in sea ice, and an increase in air and ocean temperatures. These changes now observed on the shallow shelf of the northern Bering Sea should be expected to affect a much broader portion of the Pacific-influenced sector of the Arctic Ocean.

The authors developed MACS for the estimation of parameters for hydrologic models; be it for "fine-tuning" of a priori estimates, or for estimating parameters without a priori knowledge of the system. Optimization methods have advanced over the last few decades, and although they are used extensively by the research community, operational hydrologists have been less eager to implement automated calibration procedures. The authors, under cooperative agreement with the National Weather Service (NWS) Hydrology Laboratory have collaborated to develop a progressive calibration strategy, using "in-house" NWS algorithms to optimize parameters for the hydrologic models used in operational streamflow forecasting: the Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting (SAC-SMA) and the SNOW-17 model. The method, though developed within the NWS forecasting system, can be easily adapted to any hydrologic modeling system. In our current work, MACS has been tested on 20 NWS forecast points (or basins), located in various hydrologic and climatic regimes (five different River Forecast Centers (RFCs)) across the United States. Over half of the basins tested (11) consist of multi-tiered systems in the Western US (i.e. the hydrologic models are run over several elevation zones for one forecast point). The results show comparable, reliable calibrations, similar in quality to the traditional manual techniques, over all of the hydro-climatic regimes used for this study. MACS, generally, produces simulations with desirable performance measures, including improved Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency and lower percent bias. MACS performs well in all regions, even over the complex terrain in the western regions of the United States.

Two sets of parameters were developed for each basin: those based on calibration (CAB) and those derived from soil-based algorithms (SoiB). Split-sample tests (20 years for calibration and 19 years for Testing or validation) of simulated hydrographs using CAB based parameters and SoiB based parameters were made to judge model effectiveness. Generally, simulations based on CAB parameters were superior to SoiB based simulations, though neither was satisfactory. To test for calibrated model parameter transferability, CAB parameters of each MOPEX basin were applied to the other 11 river basins (IntCAB). In terms of Bias the 144 sets of IntCAB results obtained were similar to SoiB parameters, but slightly inferior in terms of the Nash-Sutcliffe coefficient (E (sub f) ). In an attempt to enhance parameter transferability, CAB parameters of basin j applied to basin i were re-scaled (IntCABSoiB), but the end results were similar to IntCAB, except the Bias statistics were marginally improved. Finally, IntCAB results in terms of the median E (sub f) were regressed against basin simple hydrologic similarity measures computed in terms of the median Euclidean distance derived from: (a) three annual water budget measures (HED1, HED2, HED3), (b) monthly greenness fractions (GFED), and (c) physical arc distance (ArcDist). A simple regression between the median E (sub f) and the median HED1, HED2, HED3 has a R (super 2) of 0.5, 0.48, and 0.47, respectively, which shows that HED is a limited indicator of hydrologic similarity.

The MOPEX science strategy involves three major steps: data preparation, a priori parameter estimation methodology development, and demonstration of parameter transferability. A comprehensive MOPEX database has been developed that contains historical hydrometeorological data and land surface characteristics data for many hydrologic basins in the United States (US) and in other countries. This database is being continuously expanded to include more basins in all parts of the world. A number of international MOPEX workshops have been convened to bring together interested hydrologists and land surface modelers from all over world to exchange knowledge and experience in developing a priori parameter estimation techniques. This paper describes the results from the second and third MOPEX workshops. The specific objective of these workshops is to examine the state of a priori parameter estimation techniques and how they can be potentially improved with observations from well-monitored hydrologic basins. Participants of the second and third MOPEX workshops were provided with data from 12 basins in the southeastern US and were asked to carry out a series of numerical experiments using a priori parameters as well as calibrated parameters developed for their respective hydrologic models. Different modeling groups carried out all the required experiments independently using eight different models, and the results from these models have been assembled for analysis in this paper. This paper presents an overview of the MOPEX experiment and its design. The main experimental results are analyzed. A key finding is that existing a priori parameter estimation procedures are problematic and need improvement. Significant improvement of these procedures may be achieved through model calibration of well-monitored hydrologic basins. This paper concludes with a discussion of the lessons learned, and points out further work and future strategy.

Observational data sets from the Sahelian Energy Balance Experiment (SEBEX) and the Hydrological Atmospheric Pilot Experiment (HAPEX-Sahel) were used to help interpret the results. The observational errors in these two data sets are examined first. In the control simulations, the standard type-8 (shrubs with ground-cover) data typically used by general circulation models for vegetation in the Sahel produce more than 50% underestimation of average latent heat flux and 100% overestimation of average sensible heat flux. The diurnal cycle of surface temperature may be overestimated during the day and underestimated at night. Sensitivity experiments were conducted to identify the most important parameters that affect Sahel simulation and their role at the surface/atmosphere interface. It was found that proper parameter estimation of leaf area index, stomatal resistance, and hydraulic conductivity allow enough evaporation to occur in land surface simulations. Sensible heat flux is thus reduced by greater partitioning of energy to latent heat flux. Proper parameter estimation of thermal diffusivity also impacts sensible heat flux and diurnal variation of surface temperature. In addition, the water balance may be misrepresented with standard parameter values by maintaining an unnecessarily high amount of soil moisture due to less evaporation. In general, the error existing between observations and simulation is reduced substantially by proper calibration of the vegetation/soil parameters.

The access to daily stream flow data within ungauged catchments is also a central component of many aspects of water resource and water quality management.This paper explores the problem of regionalisation a rainfall-runoff model within the United Kingdom for water resources applications. The results from a regionalisation study using a large dataset of 260 catchments within the United Kingdom are presented. Two approaches to the regionalisation approach are developed and evaluated; a regression-based approach relating model parameters to catchment characteristics and a nearest neighbour based approach. The value of both approaches is evaluated in the context of the quality of the simulations obtained with regionalised parameter sets. The paper identifies that the regression-based approach yields the best predictive results and that these results are encouraging in the context of operational water management. However, the ultimate limitations of the approach are recognised and recommendations are made for further research on nearest neighbour approaches. The paper concludes by raising the question whether the regionalisation of the parameters for prior calibrated model is the most appropriate way to approach the regionalisation question and suggests an alternative modelling framework based on hydrological response units. .

We introduce an alternative subsurface flow parameterization into VIC-3L to reduce the impacts of model parameter uncertainties on model simulations by reducing the number of model parameters that need to be estimated through a calibration process. The new subsurface flow parameterization is based on the concepts of kinematic wave and hydrologic similarity, and has one parameter for calibration. Results from the 12 MOPEX (Model Parameter Estimation Experiment) basins obtained by applying the VIC-3L model with the new subsurface flow formulation show that the performance of the new parameterization is comparable to the original subsurface flow formulation, which has three parameters for calibration. In addition, a probabilistic approach based on Monte Carlo simulations is used to evaluate model performance and uncertainties associated with model parameters over different ranges of streamflow. Studies based on the 12 MOPEX watersheds show that compared to the parameter associated with the new subsurface flow parameterization, the VIC shape parameter (i.e. the b parameter that represents the shape of the heterogeneity distribution of effective soil moisture capacity over a study area) has a larger impact on model simulations and could introduce more uncertainty if not estimated appropriately. Furthermore, investigations on the b parameter suggest that the ensembles (i.e. the mean response and its bounds) from the Monte Carlo simulations could provide reasonable predictions and uncertainty estimates of streamflows, which have important implications for applications to ungauged basins. The study also shows that appropriate reduction of the number of model parameters is an effective approach to reduce the impacts of parameter uncertainties on model simulations. This is more so for applications to ungauged basins or basins with limited data available for calibration. The new subsurface flow parameterization and the probabilistic uncertainty analysis approach are general and can be applied to other modeling studies.

Pre-determined quantitative relationships with physical basin characteristics are used to reduce uncertainty in parameter estimation and enable prediction in ungauged basins. BTOPMC parameter values, which have previously resulted in efficient model performance, are applied to ten Model Parameter Estimation Experiment (MOPEX) basins without any parameter adjustment to test model performance using "blind" a priori parameter estimates. It is quantitatively shown that parameters can not be satisfactorily estimated a priori without parameter adjustment, either through calibration or transfer functions linking parameters to physical basin features, referred to as "improved" a priori parameter estimation. To compare model performance using different parameter estimation techniques, BTOPMC parameters are re-estimated by automatic optimization. As anticipated, model performance improves significantly when these optimized parameters are used. Good correlation of model performance is also observed between the 19-year validation and 20-year calibration results when optimized parameters are used. This indicates that BTOPMC's predictive accuracy depends strongly on calibration accuracy, implying that well-optimized parameter values can ensure the accuracy of model predictions. It appears reasonable to use optimized parameter values, selected from successful modelling applications, to make transfer functions which "improve" a priori parameter estimates. The "improved" a priori parameter estimation is achieved through multiple linear regression analysis relating BTOPMC parameters to soil and vegetation types within the basin being modelled. The results suggest that the preliminary parameter transfer functions are encouraging and that "improved" a priori parameter estimation techniques have the potential to reduce parameter uncertainty and enable prediction in ungauged basins. To improve parameter estimation and predictive accuracy of the model, further research to determine more accurate values, and their relationship with physical basin characteristics, is needed.

Two different rainfall-runoff model structures were tested to get a more general overview on this issue. A dynamic sensitivity analysis approach was adopted (i.e. with re-calibration of model parameters). Results indicate that watershed models use their different functions (and corresponding parameters) to absorb input errors and muffle their impact on streamflow simulations. The main conclusions are: (1) models are almost insensitive to random errors in PE series, which comes from the inherent low pass filter properties of rainfall-runoff models; (2) random errors in rainfall series significantly affect model performances and parameter values; (3) systematic errors in PE series have a greater impact than random errors, but they are partly buffered by Soil Moisture Accounting (SMA) stores; (4) systematic errors in rainfall time series, when large enough, can be very detrimental to model performances but their impact can be reduced if the model structure includes a procedure other than evapotranspiration to adapt water balance.

Currently, the system has one snow model (SNOW-17) and two runoff models: the Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting (SAC-SMA) and the Continuous Antecedent Precipitation Index (CONT-API). The NWS lumped CONT-API model is operational in one of the NWS River Forecasting Centers (RFCs), the Middle Atlantic RFC (MARFC) in the United States. This study deals with the derivation of a priori distributed parameters for the CONT-API model. In our strategy, initial distributed parameters based on the calibrated lumped CONT-API parameters of 67 basins in the Susquehanna River Basin are derived. This study shows that the CONT-API model six-hourly calibrated parameters can be used in an one-hourly lumped model with only minor changes in total runoff volume (less than 5%). However, to obtain the timing of simulated hydrographs, appropriate one-hourly unit hydrographs need to be derived. A priori-distributed model parameters were based on relationships between soil properties and calibrated lumped CONT-API parameters. Multiple linear regressions with coefficients of determination ranging from 0.39 to 0.63 were obtained for 10 lumped model parameters. Using these predicted parameters, the lumped model produced simulations having Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, Neff, statistics ranging from 0.69 to 0.78 for five of the 67 basins. These are commensurate with goodness-of-fit statistics from lumped model calibrations. Furthermore, application of the method in deriving a priori parameters gave a promising result in distributed model simulations.

These problems led to the abandonment of powerful classical analysis methods (Newton-type optimisation, derivative-based uncertainty analysis) and have motivated extensive research into nonsmooth optimisation and even new parameter estimation philosophies (e.g. GLUE). This paper shows that some of these complexities are not inherent features of hydrological models, but are numerical artefacts due to model thresholds and poorly selected time stepping schemes. We present a numerically robust methodology for implementing conceptual models, including rainfall-runoff and snow models, that ensures micro-scale smoothness of objective functions and guarantees macro-scale model stability. The methodology employs robust and unconditionally stable time integration of the models, complemented by careful threshold smoothing. A case study demonstrates the benefits of these techniques.

While major progress has been made in the regionalization of statistical flow properties (e.g. extreme values), and methods for synthesis of event response at ungauged sites are widely applied, the estimation of continuous streamflow time-series is still very uncertain. The challenge of predicting the response at ungauged sites is often met through a process of parameter regionalization. Little attention has so far been given to the impact of new insights into model identification at gauged sites, e.g. regarding the problem of structural error, on this regionalization process. Questions that are addressed in this paper are the following: (1) What is the relationship between local parameter identifiability and catchment characteristics? (2) How is the uniqueness of catchments reflected in regionalization? (3) What is the result of local model structural uncertainty on the regionalization result? (4) How can we propagate local parameter uncertainty into predictions in ungauged basins and what is the result? A case study of 10 catchments located in the southeast of England is utilized to deal with these questions. The main conclusions from this study are that the uncertainty in the locally estimated model parameters is a function of their importance in representing the response of a given catchment, model structural error hinders identification of a parameter to represent a certain process and therefore hinders the regionalization, and the uncertainty in the calibrated parameters can be propagated to ungauged sites using a weighted regression approach.

This is the major hydrologic model used for flood forecasting at most of the 13 river forecasting centers throughout the United States. A physically based approach based on the nationally available State Soil Geographic Database (STATSGO) has been developed (Koren, V. I., Smith, M., Wang, D., Zhang, Z., 2000. Use of soil property data in the derivation of conceptual rainfall-runoff model parameters. Proceedings of the 15th Conference on Hydrology, AMS, Long Beach, CA, pp. 103-106; Koren, V., Smith, M., Duan, Q., 2003.

(Eds.), Calibration of Watershed Models, Water Science and Applications 6, AGU, pp. 239-254), leading to objective, spatially consistent parameter estimates. This paper shows that a better representation of basin physical properties and potential improvements in hydrologic simulation performance can be obtained by basing parameter estimates on a finer-scale database of soils data, the Soil Survey Geographic Database (SSURGO), combined with high-resolution land use/land cover data. Results also suggest that an intermediate level of improvement may be obtained by combining detailed land cover data with STATSGO to refine current parameter estimates. This latter finding is significant because the SSURGO data are not yet available for the entire country.

In the companion paper, a numerically robust model implementation framework was developed, based on stable time stepping schemes and careful threshold smoothing to eliminate the roughness of parameter surfaces. Here, this framework is exploited to enable parameter estimation using powerful and well-established techniques including: (i) Newton-type optimisation and (ii) principal-component-type (Hessian-based) uncertainty analysis. A case study using a representative rainfall-runoff-snow model illustrates the advantages of these previously unavailable methods, contrasting them with slower and less informative current approaches designed for nonsmooth functions. In addition to boosting the computational efficiency, the methods advocated in the paper yield more insight into improved model formulation and parameterisation (e.g., reducing model nonlinearity, detecting ill-conditioning and handling parameter multi-optimality). The impact of extreme model nonlinearity on model and parameter stability is also discussed, focusing on model identification aspects.

The reasons for the incompleteness of traditional calibration methods are discussed. The argument is made that the potential for multiple acceptable models as representations of hydrological and other environmental systems (the equifinality thesis) should be given more serious consideration than hitherto. It proposes some techniques for an extended GLUE methodology to make it more rigorous and outlines some of the research issues still to be resolved.

Slaughter of a large number of turtles provided a unique opportunity to examine the presence and prevalence of several diseases, some of which have not ever been reported. Green turtle fibropapillomatosis (GTFP), cardiovascular and gastrointestinal trematodiasis, bacterial and fungal pneumonia, probable coccidiosis, and birna- or adeno-like virus were infectious diseases that we encountered during the study, either with or without overt clinical or pathological changes. Other conditions such as renal oxalosis and probable dysplasia of intestinal mucus-secreting cells were also observed in green sea turtles and hawksbill turtles. Impacts associated with the husbandry aspects were also prominent, including bruising, deep-rounded ulcers, and prolapsed cloaca. Findings suggested that diseases might play significant roles in the declining trends of the turtle population in Indonesia, and should be taken into account in conservation and management efforts for turtle populations. The potential impacts associated with the release of confiscated turtles to mix with their free-ranging counterparts after law enforcement in the country is also discussed in considerable detail.

The strongest age validations require the acquisition of ageing structures from fish of known-ages, or specimens whose ages are appropriate for bomb carbon validation. Often such specimens are extremely difficult or impossible to acquire so researchers have sought alternatives to validation. The alternative to age validation is age corroboration. Corroboration of a fish ageing method occurs when fish ages are found to be consistent with some ancillary information when comparisons are made in an unbiased manner. The question pursued in this study is how desirable are such comparisons from a scientific viewpoint. Information is presented that corroborates otolith ages for walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma), one of the largest groundfish fisheries in the world. Walleye pollock ages were corroborated using marginal increment analysis, ages following the strong 1978 year class in the eastern Bering Sea, and a comparison of ages read from otoliths with ages read from vertebrae. A new statistical method is suggested for comparing otolith and vertebra age readings. The walleye pollock example demonstrated that corroborating evidence can improve confidence in fish ages and ageing techniques.

The basic assumption that the wind speed decay rate after landfall is proportional to the wind speed is modified to include a factor equal to the fraction of the storm circulation that is over land. The storm circulation is defined as a circular area with a fixed radius. Application of the modified model to Atlantic Ocean cases from 1967 to 2003 showed that a circulation radius of 110 km minimizes the bias in the total sample of landfalling cases and reduces the mean absolute error of the predicted maximum winds by about 12%. This radius is about 2 times the radius of maximum wind of a typical Atlantic tropical cyclone. The modified decay model was applied to the Statistical Hurricane Intensity Prediction Scheme (SHIPS), which uses the Kaplan and DeMaria decay model to adjust the intensity for the portion of the predicted track that is over land. The modified decay model reduced the intensity forecast errors by up to 8% relative to the original decay model for cases from 2001 to 2004 in which the storm was within 500 km from land.

The annual average GPCP estimates are here analyzed over 1979- 2004 to evaluate the large-scale variability over the period. Data inhomogeneities are evaluated and found to not be responsible for the major variations, including systematic changes over the period. Most variations are associated with el Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) episodes. There are also tropical trend-like changes over the period, correlated with interdecadal warming of the tropical SSTs and uncorrelated with ENSO. Trends have spatial variations with both positive and negative values, with a global-average near zero.

Trends in chemical concentrations in mussels and oysters collected along the US coast from 1986 to 1993. Mar. Environ. Res. 41, 183-200] showed decreasing trends, on a national scale, for chemicals whose use has been banned or has greatly decreased and that concentrations of most other chemicals were neither increasing nor decreasing. With data through 2003 those conclusions still apply. National median concentrations of synthetic organic chemicals and cadmium continue to decrease. The added data show that concentrations of lindane and high molecular weight PAHs are also decreasing on a national scale. For metals other than cadmium and zinc (in mussels), the added data reveal trends at more sites than in 1993 but no additional national trends. However, the longer time series has revealed several local and regional trends.

Time of each emergence event was recorded and the sand temperature at 15 cm below sand surface was monitored from 1800 to 0800 hours the following morning. Generally emergence events were nocturnal. 57.14% of all emergence events occurred between 2000 - 2300 h. Nocturnal emergence is believed to be one of the strategies to avoid hyperthermia and daytime active predators. Hourly mean temperature was observed to decline steadily throughout the study. A steep decrease was observed between 2100-2200 h which coincided with the peak emergence activities. Emergence of green turtle hatchlings appeared to occur at a threshold temperature of 27.1 degree C and ceased at temperatures higher than 33.8 degree C. Some 96.4% of all emergence events occurred below 33 degree C. Temperature decreased between initial and final emergence therefore sand temperature may not be the only cue to trigger emergence. Further investigations are needed to identify the specific thermal information or other possible cues used by hatchling to emerge. This study also found that size of hatchlings did not affect the time of hatchling emergence.

The fishermen noted that during June, July and August 2002 there were indeed sea turtle interactions with fisheries and accidental captures of Caretta caretta juveniles along with fish in their nets (in the past the fishermen brought these turtles to the market but currently they do not bring them given recent legislation), and thus sea turtle conservation policies along the northwestern coast of Morocco need to be considered within an overarching framework of marine biodiversity conservation.

Despite one hundred years of colonial rule, Palau retains a strong cultural tradition. It is a matriarchal, matrilineal society in which women are the guardians of the clans and responsible for selecting and supporting chiefs. Sea turtles (hawksbill and green turtles) play a special cultural significance distinguishing them from other sea creatures. Sea turtles feature prominently in Palauan songs, dances, chants, and myths. In pre-contact times, turtle flesh was the only source of red meat available and turtle eggs were also a greatly prized food. The hawksbill shell is traditionally carved into shallow bowls called 'toluk' circulated during cultural events by and among women as "women's money". Their exchange brings social status to giver and recipient alike. Parts of the shell not suitable for toluk are carved into highly valued ornaments. In another important ritual, the Paramount Chief of Palau (the Ibedul) washes his hands in the blood of a turtle before assuming his title.

Without a definite nationality, they are simply called the "Wayuu". Through their strong relation with the sea, the Wayuu have integrated many marine elements within their magical-religious beliefs. Among those elements are marine turtles, which are considered as 'gifts' of God (Maleiwa) and that they are envoys to compensate for the lack of water and fertile ground. There is a great cultural tradition referring to marine turtles and the fertility in all their life aspects. Within their beliefs several rituals stand out: the sacrifice of animals for diet, where only a fisherman and his wife can intervene; placing skulls of marine turtles upon the plants to accelerate its fruiting, as well as on the doors of cattle corrals to stimulate pregnancy and birth of their offspring, similarly the way they use the penis with alcoholic beverages as an aphrodisiac, or feeding their domestic animals the discards of turtles so that they be long-lived. The native Wayuu also utilize the shells of turtles to 'bathe' young natives girls during the first night of sexual maturity, by storing water under the light of the moon to promote the skin health and fertility. Many authors suggest that the Wayuu ethnic group descends directly from the more important indigenous groups of South America, that they migrated and settled in different localities, prompelled by nutritional necessities of subsistence. Their predecessors were very much bound to mountains, nevertheless, after the pre-Columbian time their inclination towards the Caribbean Sea was greater and, arising from there, great histories and beliefs associated with the Sea and its biota.

In the Mexican Pacific, Playon de Mexiquillo is the only Mexican leatherback nesting beach that has maintained continuous monitoring coverage for almost two decades, and during this time a drastic decline in the number of nesting females has been documented. Other important rookeries for the leatherback in the Eastern Pacific occur in Costa Rica, and at Playa Grande, where long-term continuous protection activities have taken place, the same sort of decline has been observed (Steyemark et al., 1996). The current declining trend in the nesting populations of Mexico and Costa Rica have caused great concern regarding the fate of the Pacific leatherback, and has motivated new conservation strategies.

During their development sea turtle embryos utilise a limited energy store deposited in the egg yolk, and any residual yolk at the time of hatching may provide a valuable energy store for the hatchling. Minimising energy use during development may therefore influence hatchling fitness. Eggs incubated at hotter temperatures develop faster, but energy expenditure is also greater at higher temperatures. An interesting question touched on by recent studies, is how these two features interact to define the total costs of embryonic development.

These consisted of beach standings, incidental captures by artisanal fisheries and captures from our netting efforts. Following DNA extraction, we sequenced a 486 base pair fragment of the mitochondrial DNA control region, commonly used in phylogeographic studies of this species in the Atlantic. Sequence editing and alignment showed that our samples exhibited 6 different haplotypes (CM5, CM6, CM8, CM9, CM10, CM24), all previously described and occurring in Atlantic nesting populations. In addition, we carried out mixed stock analysis using the program BAYES to obtain estimates of the proportion of nesting populations contributing to the juvenile stock. Preliminary results indicated that the main contributor was the Ascension Island rookery followed by, among others, Matapica (Suriname) and Aves Island (Venezuela). Thus, mortality due to fishing activities in Uruguayan waters may be depleting endangered nesting populations elsewhere in the Atlantic. This work furthers our understanding of the distribution and migratory routes of green turtles in the southern Atlantic region and confirms the importance of international cooperation in conservation.

However, since standardized techniques have not been used to census turtles, population trends are actually unknown. Here, we summarise information on nesting populations in Orissa, using data from multiple sources to arrive at consensus estimates and to derive trends. We also carried out a census during an arribada in March 1999, where nesting was estimated as 180,000 turtles using the strip transect method. Non - linear (quadratic) fits for arribada data from 1976-1999 and a decrease in the size of adults between 1996-1998 suggest a recent decline, which is consistent with fishery related mortality of at least 90,000 turtles since 1994. Though statistical support for the recent decline may be equivocal, the patterns suggest that efforts to reduce mortality and close monitoring of the population would be prudent. The absence of reliable data on which to base conservation action highlights an urgent need to train management personnel in estimation techniques and data collection for effective monitoring of status, threats and trends.

Many research programs desire local residents' participation in conservation efforts, but involving the public extends beyond the expertise and time of many scientists (Brewer et al, 2002). For three years, Ecology Project International has successfully integrated local residents in conservation research at a high-density nesting beach for leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. In 2002, 17 student groups totaling 272 participants served as research assistants during 51 nights of the peak leatherback nesting season. Local high school students collected biometric data, augmented the frequency and duration of patrols, contributed to habitat restoration of the nesting beach, and provided energy and inspiration to resident researchers. In February, 2003, Ecology Project International applied this model of community involvement at a green turtle (Chelonia mydas) monitoring program in Galapagos National Park, Ecuador. In the first partnership of its kind on the islands, local Galapageno high school students patrolled critical nesting beaches alongside biologists from the Charles Darwin Research Station.

The green turtle (of six species existed in Indonesian waters) was finally protected by this regulation. All types of commercial utilization are prohibited, including egg collection for commercial purposes. However, in Indonesia regulations related to marine turtle conservation and management outside protected areas are not clearly defined. In addition, with more autonomy at district level (with the issuance of Law (UU) No. 22/1999 and Government Regulation (PP) No. 25/2000), marine turtles in Indonesia are facing a different-type of challenge - a political one. District areas have greater authority over coastal and marine area management within its jurisdiction than does the central government. Another challenge is that they are of low priority and there is an uneven proportion of community participation in the management of local resources.

Experiments were conducted to investigate (1) whether juvenile loggerhead and green sea turtles would exhibit homing and migratory orientation in a laboratory setting and (2) whether homing might be accomplished using map-based navigation. Turtles were captured in inshore waters and displaced to a testing location, where they were allowed to swim while tethered in an experimental arena Loggerhead and green turtles captured to the northeast of the testing site from May through September oriented in a direction that corresponded closely with the most direct path back to their capture site. Loggerheads captured to the southwest of the testing site at the same time of year also oriented in the direction of their respective capture location. Both loggerhead and green turtles tested during October and November oriented southward, a direction consistent with the migratory orientation observed in juvenile turtles in the wild at that time of year. These results indicate that the orientation behavior of loggerhead and green turtles in the arena setting accurately reflects that of wild turtles, thus setting the stage for future study of the factors underlying homing and migration in sea turtles. In addition, the results show that loggerheads are capable of homing after displacement to an unfamiliar location. Assessment of the navigational cues available to the turtles during transport and testing suggests that juvenile loggerheads are capable of map-based navigation.

The meeting was attended by slightly more than 300 participants representing 73 countries, a dramatic drop in participation from previous years brought about in no small part by the looming war in the middle east region and concerns over travel safety. For 22 years the Symposium had been an Americas-based event, even though it is the annual gathering of the "international" sea turtle society, and with the move to Malaysia, the Symposium hoped to raise the awareness among the general public of the plight of marine turtles in Southeast Asia, and share the enormous expertise of the world authorities on sea turtles with this so-far underrepresented region. Adopting the theme, "Living With Turtles", the Symposium had a very personal flavour, and the smaller number of participants made it possible to make and renew acquaintances, and have time for discussion between sessions. While the travel safety concern excuse was often quoted, it was a pity, particularly to the large contingent of people who attended the event for the first time from underrepresented regions, that many of the household names linked to marine turtle biology and conservation were not present to share their knowledge and promote the global concerns on the plight of turtle populations.

The beach, one of the main green turtle nesting grounds in the Mediterranean, is 4.9 km long. Every day turtle nests and predator tracks were counted, and a total of 105 nests (73 Chelonia mydas; 26 Caretta caretta; 6 unknown) were recorded. The total rate of predation either before or after hatching was 67.61%. Predators (dogs) attacked nests when hatching started, when the nesting season was already advanced. Most of predation events were recorded after the 5 super(th) week of incubation. The same timing of canid attacks on green turtle nests was observed in other Mediterranean nesting sites, representing a particular behaviour. This finding could be of great benefit to green turtle conservation programmes in order to adapt best methods for nest protection from attacks by canids in a limited period within the nesting season. Studies to identify the cues that canids use to discover green turtle nest should be carried out in order to better understand their behaviour and to protect nests.

Both species were present in the lagoons throughout the year. Of the 35 green turtles captured, 69% were immature (CCL range 40 - 60 cm) and of the 17 hawksbill turtles captured, 77% were between the CCL size range of 35 cm and 60 cm, which is considered to juvenile to sub-adult size class. Nocturnal activities for juvenile were apparent in both species. The lagoons of the Lakshadweep islands were found to be a developmental habitat for both species of sea turtles. The study found significant correlation between occurrence of green turtle and abundance of seagrass. The role of developmental habitats in the life history of both species is also discussed.

Declines have been apparent to local villagers in many areas, but conservation and protection is hindered by a lack of knowledge of turtle movements following local nesting. As part of a multi-national partnership between local villagers, conservation organizations, and sea turtle researchers, twenty female leatherback turtles were sampled and tagged with satellite transmitters after nesting on beaches near Lababia Village, Morobe Province, Papua New Guinea during December 2001, and February 2003. The leatherbacks were documented to nest repeatedly, approximately every 5-7 days, both on beaches near the tagging site and at several distant locations to the north and south in Papua New Guinea. One turtle track suggested re-nesting on beaches of Bougainville Island, 800 km away. Two tracks revealed long-range movements to the southeast, past New Caledonia and towards southern Australia or New Zealand. Satellite telemetry was instrumental in documenting beach use, inter-nesting intervals, variability in nest site selection, and migration patterns of post-nesting female leatherbacks in Papua New Guinea.

However, there is scant information about this species in the State of Espirito Santo. This study was undertaken by Projeto TAMAR, the Brazilian sea turtle conservation program, in partnership with Companhia Sidenirgica de Tubarao (CST, Tubarao Steel Company), after a significant number of green turtles were found to inhabit the effluent discharge channel of the steel plant. The objective was to analyze, through mark and recapture, movement patterns and growth rates, and also to assess the overall body condition of the turtles in that area.

The process conducted stakeholder meetings and gathered notes on biological facts, traditional use and local knowledge from hunters and fishermen young and old. A survey was conducted to assess knowledge of existing regulations, behavior and attitude. A consortium of related agencies worked together in visiting all 27 primary and secondary schools in Palau. Interactive presentations were made with puppet shows, turtle costumes, children singing turtle songs and distribution of fact sheets, posters, stickers and badges to a total of 4027 students. Of all the students, 57% or 2295 signed a petition to the National Congress calling for a moratorium on sea turtles in Palau. Following the school visits, community visits to all 16 States were undertaken. There were a total of 24 presentations, modified depending on the village. Fact sheets, stickers, and posters were distributed again. Local villagers' knowledge was reviewed and related to known biological facts. Local villagers agreed that sea turtles, especially hawksbills and greens, were declining in numbers. A consensus from most villages urged the halt on turtle take. A resolution from the 9th Annual Women's Conference in Palau was passed to the National Congress calling for the moratorium on sea turtle take, and the Council of Chiefs is in the process of imposing a traditional moratorium through the Office of the President.

AN - 20479582; 9167516 AB - Many sea turtle conservation projects around the world rely on volunteers for funding and labor. Conservation volunteers, particularly those that pay for their experience, are considered to be a specialized form of ecotourist. Although much has been written about ecotourists in general, very little attention has been paid to conservation volunteers. It would therefore be beneficial to better understand who the 'turtle volunteer' is, both to improve the ability of turtle conservation projects to attract volunteers and to enhance volunteer satisfaction. This presentation will explore the characteristics, motivations, expectations, experiences, and perspectives of a group of turtle volunteers. Results are based primarily on semi-structured interviews conducted with 17 volunteers (7 male, 10 female) working with Asociacion ANAI in Gandoca, Costa Rica, from June to August 2002. Themes to be considered include environmental education, cost, integration with the local community, and cultural aspects such as communication.

It is possible that when sea turtles Lepidochelys olivacea bury the muzzle into the sand when emerging, just before deciding where to lay eggs, they could be detecting some physical, chemical or environmental characteristic of the sand. It is thus important to characterize nesting beaches to understand variations in these properties (soil characteristics). Shoreline erosion results in the loss of the desirable habitat for turtles, and human interferences with natural processes through coastal development and related activities have generated accelerated erosion rates in some localities, along with the interruption of natural sand migration along the coastline. Tracks and compactation left by vehicles on the beach limit the ability of the hatchlings to reach the ocean; and when incubation sites are directly transited, the sand is compacted the emergence success decreases, and hatchlings can be killed in early development stages.

In the spring of 1996, building on an initiative by Carlos Diez and Robert van Dam (from the Mona Island Hawksbill Research Project) and in coordination with Grupo Jaragua, a Dominican NGO, we conducted in- water surveys at Jaragua National Park (JNP) and Cabo Rojo. We soon identified a number of hawksbill foraging habitats and started an intensive hawksbill tagging and monitoring study.

This decrease of leatherbacks has also occurred on Pancur Beach in the Alas Purwo Nasional Park, East Java, based on ten years of data collected by National Parks Rangers. Efforts to increase the leatherback population on Pancur Beach through an on-site hatchery have often met obstacles and failed. The main goal of this research is to describe the condition of the leatherback nesting habitat in Pancur Beach, Alas Purwo National Park, and the results will be used as a data base to develop semi-natural incubation conditions for leatherback eggs.

Status surveys and studies conducted in the Andamans and Nicobars have recorded India's best nesting beaches for three species, leatherbacks, hawksbills and green turtles. Leatherback populations in the Andamans and Nicobars are the largest for India and the most important for the Northern Indian Ocean region and currently the Nicobar population may be globally significant. Green turtles are the most common and widespread species throughout both island groups. Thought in the Andaman Islands the actual ban on hunting and harvesting of turtles came into force only in 1977, all indigenous groups of people, the original inhabitants of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, are exempted from the Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act.

Why? By the end of the last century, sea turtle population levels began to decline, and since then they have been declared as endangered and have been protected by several national and international laws. Commercial and subsistence takes of adults, accidental fisheries mortality, commercial and subsistence egg harvests, and habitat degradation have been considered the main causes for this decrease. Many non-governmental and governmental organizations in Mexico have instituted conservation efforts, mainly focusing on nesting beaches. On some of the main nesting beaches, the aforementioned threats have been reduced by some 80% in the last 20 years. However, with the exception of one species, turtles either do not appear to be recuperating or continue to dramatically decline. These results could be due to the late maturation periods insea turtles, the need to increase enforcement in migratory and foraging areas, or additional factors, such as like pollutants.

Investigations included controlled-temperature incubations of a series of clutches collected from two beaches: Chendor, Pahnag, a mainland, coloured sand beach, and Mak Kepit, Terengganu, an offshore island, white-sand beach. Incubation success, incubation period, sex ratios, pivotal temperatures, and hatchling morphometrcs were measured. Hatching success at intermediate temperatures was over 75% in all three years of the study with eggs collected from Chendor but was more variable, particularly in 1998, with eggs collected from the offshore island. Incubation period was significantly and inversely related to incubation temperatures, with a one-degree increase in temperature decreasing incubation period by 6.25 days. Pivotal temperatures were found to be 29.4 +/- 0.6 degree C at both beaches, with 100% males produced at nest temperatures below 27.0 degree C and 100% females produced above 32.0 degree C. These data document the critical sex-determining pivotal temperatures of C. mydas nesting in the Peninsular Malaysia, and together with data on in situ and hatchery nests will permit better informed management of turtle nests in the region.

This initiative is of extreme importance because the investigations of population genetics represent a fundamental tool in the creation of handling and conservation plans. Molecular biology investigations carried out in feeding zones provide fundamental information for the ecological understanding of the area; since they allow determination of the zone use and the nesting origin of genetically different populations.

This was the first attempt by a Sierra Leonean to list all the species occurring in Sierra Leone and which are now recognised as among the most critical species for biodiversity conservation in Sierra Leone. The research also identified some of the main threats affecting marine turtles, including egg collection, capture by the numerous artisanal fisheries, sand mining of beaches and use of sea beaches for recreation and leisure. The report on marine turtle signals a new beginning for conserving and protecting priceless marine turtle diversity. Marine turtles in Sierra Leone are not under any legal protection or recognition in spite of the fact that they are a globally threatened species. Government legislation and decision makers in Sierra Leone are recently beginning to protect these species, so that the future of Sierra Leone's marine turtles will be more secure. One of CSSL's key strategies to protect Sierra Leone's marine turtles and other biodiversity is to raise awareness and help develop grassroots community groups committed to monitor, manage and sustain marine species and their habitats, nesting and foraging sites. Conservation activities are now in progress through education and sensitisation of local communities in radio programmes, surveys and education, and nature clubs. The CSSL intends to carry out this campaign throughout the entire coastline but funding is hindering the society.

The Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge has the second largest nesting aggregation of Loggerhead sea turtles in the world. A raccoon reduction program has been implemented, in which we used three methods to decrease the raccoon population. One, we reduced access to human food sources, such as dumpsters and garbage cans; two, we used public education activities such as public interpretive programs and signage; and three we used a live trapping and euthanasia program. By reducing the raccoon population there has been a positive effect on reducing raccoon predation on sea turtle nests. JF - NOAA Technical Memorandum NMFS SEFSC AU - O'Toole, T AD - D.E.P.

Beginning with the Interamerican Convention for the Protection and Conservation of Sea Turtles, which requires all parties to protect, conserve and if necessary restore sea turtle habitats and nesting areas, the presentation covers the main international instruments and mechanisms that have been developed at global and regional levels to enhance the protection of sea turtle habitats. The presentation also describes how these international mechanisms have been adopted and implemented at a local level within National environmental legislation and how these internal mechanisms have helped halt a large economic tourism development that has caused massive destruction in coastal habitats. As an example of the mechanisms available within the law to protect sea turtle habitats, the presentation exposes an important case that caused an enormous precedent in sea turtle conservation, not only in Mexico but among the international community: the case X'Cacel - X'Cacelito, in the Quintana Roo State Rivera Maya, and documents the use of the mechanisms mentioned above to hald the development of a large resort on the most important green and loggerhead sea turtle nesting grounds in the Caribbean and Atlantic.

Despite protection by government legislation since 1972, and amendments made in 1993, their future is in jeopardy, with many turtle populations declining to the point where they are no longer significant resources either materially or culturally. This is due mainly to the indiscriminate exploitation largely for their eggs and meat (Hewavisenthi, 1990). In addition, turtle nesting beaches are being disturbed by tourist industry development and feeding habitats, such as coral reefs and other coastal vegetation including mangrove habitats, are being destroyed by pollution and unsustainable harvesting. Many turtles are accidentally caught and drowned in fishing gear each year (Kapurusinghe, M.M. Saman, 2001).

An agreement, known as the Memorandum of Abidjan, was proposed to the States in order to politically seal this decision of regional co-operation. In May 2002, at UNEP in Nairobi, the First Conference of the Memorandum of Abidjan took place and a regional conservation plan for marine turtles was developed. This conservation plan applies to all the countries ranging from the Straits of Gibraltar to the Cape of Good-Hope, including the islands of Macaronesia, Saint-Helena, Ascension, and the Spanish territory of Ceuta. To date, 17 States have signed the Memorandum, and several others, including European countries, are preparing to do so. This vast program, initiated by the CMS, is superimposed on the southeastern Atlantic region of the IUCN-MTSG.

Does it matter? AN - 20478802; 9167513 AB - It is widely known, and celebrated, that marine turtles are ancient animals; it is less commonly appreciated that humans have been interacting with these marine reptiles for millennia. Moreover, the significance of this inter-relationship is rarely contemplated. This study summarizes evidence for the antiquity and complexity of the human-turtle interactions, and reflects on its significance, in terms of both biological and conservation endeavors.

This is only government-sanctioned commercial turtle egg harvest project in the world. The local population was unprepared for the changes that came with the commercial success and the biologists were unqualified to predict the political and environmnetal effects of this endeavour. The bittersweet lessons learned along the way will, hopefully, better prepare future projects. JF - NOAA Technical Memorandum NMFS SEFSC AU - Chaves, A AD - I.C.E.

After emerging from the sea, turtles must cope with the effects of unsupported body weight. One effect is compression of the thoracic region, making breathing a laborious process. Sea turtles on land exhibit a pattern of brief, strenuous, and exhaustive exercise, normally lasting less than 1 min, followed by a recovery period usually exceeding the time of exercise. This pattern of exercise-recovery prevails throughout the phases of nesting. Under these circumstances, the turtles, like some reptiles, appear to be intermittent breathers. After exercise, they appear to develop hypoxia and hypercapnia, characteristics of anaerobic respiration. In addition, when nesting, turtles frequently abandon several sites before choosing a place to lay eggs. Nest abandonment is usually related to unfavorable conditions such as lack of sand moisture, presence of obstacles or disturbance. Nesting may take between 2.0-3.5 hr depending on the number of nest abandonments a turtle makes. Thus, sea turtles are subjected to a high degree of stress, evidenced by high catecholamine levels during nesting exercise (Gleeson et al., 1993; Al Kindi et al., 2001). Moreover, sea turtles, like most other lung breathing reptiles ventilate intermittently (Shelton et al., 1986; Wasser & Jackson, 1991).

In fact, one of the most fundamental issues, how sound is channeled to the inner ear, has not been fully investigated. Turtles share a common problem with dolphins. Both lack conventional external ear canals. Nevertheless, turtles, birds, seals, and whales are believed to hear underwater and, possibly, as has been demonstrated at least for dolphins, to have good sensitivity and sound localization abilities. In this study, computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were used to explore underwater sound reception mechanisms through density analysis and mapping of tissues associated with the outer and middle ears of multiple species of dolphins, seals, turtles, and sea birds. The scans revealed well-organized bundles of coherent fatty tissues emerging from the middle ear in all species examined. The densities of these fats are similar across all species examined and are consistent with sound speeds of sea water. Three-dimensional reconstructions of the scan data showed that in turtles, the fats formed a discrete column fused to the tympanum. Seals and sea birds have distinct columns of fat that parallel an air-filled canal. In dolphins, the fats form three distinct bundles: two directed anteriorly with a third projecting postero-laterally. These findings suggest that all four groups evolved parallel soft tissue specializations that act as low impedance channels for underwater sound conduction to the ear.

The tribe has traditionally relied on sea turtles as both the food and cultural foundation of their communities. The center of the Seri territory is the Canal Infiernillo, a narrow channel separating Tiburon Island from the coast of northwest Sonora. Populations of sea turtles, particularly green turtles, were historically abundant and the focus of organized turtle hunts and traditional ceremonies. Such events served to strengthen the cultural bond within Seri communities and provided opportunities for the teaching of traditional knowledge to the younger generation. Over the last four decades, however, sea turtle populations in this region have experienced tremendous declines. The result has been a gradual shift away from reliance on sea turtles. Today, Seri-sea turtle interactions are complex: turtle-based ceremonies and tribal activities that embrace sea turtles continue on occasion, but the problem of illegal capture for sale to outside markets has grown. A recently formed Seri Turtle Group is currently working toward preventing these illegal activities. Further, the Group works with scientists on ongoing research and monitoring projects in the Seri territory. This presentation details the Seri-sea turtle interactions starting from pre-Columbian times to present day and discusses the successes and failures of conservation efforts that have been undertaken in the region.

Over the last ten years, the use of genetic markers has become a powerful tool to gain this information, particularly within short time frames. During this period there has been a large research effort in Australia to identify breeding populations and the origins of turtles in foraging populations and within harvests throughout the Indo-Pacific using genetic markers. To date, the research on green turtles has focused on the use of mtDNA markers to identify breeding populations and mixed stock analysis to describe the composition of feeding grounds and harvests. Analyses of the breeding populations have been completed on 670 nesting females from 27 rookeries throughout the Indo-Pacific (Moritz et al. 2002). Of these, 17 Management Units (Moritz 1994) were identified as: Coral Sea Platform, New Caledonia: Papua New Guinea, Micronesia, Aru, SE Sabah, Berau Islands, Sulu Sea, Sarawak, Peninsular Malaysia, West Java, Gulf of Carpenteria, Ashmore Reef (Eastern Indian Ocean), Scott Reefs (Eastern Indian Ocean), Northwest Shelf, Australia, Northern Great Barrier Reef and Southern Great Barrier Reef.

A massive reintroduction project, called Operation Green Turtle, began in 1959, aimed to reestablish the extirpated nesting populations throughout the Greater Caribbean, including Bermuda. The project is largely considered a failure; as of 2002, there was no conclusive evidence that new nesting populations exist. We propose to conduct a similar reintroduction project, using the wealth of knowledge that has accumulated since the previous project as a guide. We plan to relocate green turtle eggs from Costa Rica to Bermuda. If the hatchlings are imprinted on Bermuda, we believe they will return there to nest once they reach sexual maturity.

With photography, fewer illustrations are drawn, but it remains an important teaching/documentation tool, more easily reproducible than photographs. From cave art onward, it is an art form with styles and techniques undergoing evolutionary phases. Woodcuts advanced to copper and later steel engravings. Hand-coloring progressed to chromolithography (true color printing). Other media was likely utilized, but the earliest surviving zoological illustrations are first seen on cave walls and later in Babylonian clay seals or Egyptian palettes/tablets. Images do not always document scientific fact and may be exaggerated or enhanced. While sometimes inaccurate, interpretation of organisms is equally important. Early images sought appeal with symmetrical unrealistic poses and contexts. Particular designs were dictated as religious mores provoked stylized models. Not all early works were inaccurate, but the 1800s were a turning point in zoological illustration, scientific method being coupled with vivid realism and hand-coloring. Images were widely plagiarized (detail deteriorating in subsequent appearances) or drawn from descriptions rather than living specimens - giving credence to inaccuracies, myths and errors. The late 1800s saw more works written for public appeal with common animals seen new and differently. Marine chelonian illustration's evolution can be seen from Gesner (1617) to Sowerby and Lear (1872), whose turtles perhaps represent the pinnacle of chelonian illustration. This study includes Eretmochelys alone (with some early non-species specific images) to allow marine chelonian illustration's evolution to be easily followed and contrasted. Wide distribution and interest in "tortoiseshell" focuses additional attention on this genus in natural history texts.

Anthropogenic noises that would most impact sea turtles are those found within the low end of the frequency spectrum, such as from shipping, recreational boating, and the U.S. Navy's new LFA sonar program. To determine the noise levels to which sea turtles are exposed, we recorded underwater sound in one of the major foraging areas for juvenile sea turtles in northeastern U.S. coastal waters. Within the range of sea turtle hearing, noise intensity was very high during periods of high human activity, and diminished proportionally with decreasing human presence. Significant differences in intensity were accompanied by an increase in complexity of noises across the spectrum. Analyses of turtle behavior indicate that these anthropogenic noises have a significant effect on sea turtle behavior, especially on their submergence patterns. In complementary studies, we introduced low frequency sounds to captive turtles. In 100% of experimental trials, turtles responded to intensities well below those recorded in the natural environment, and showed apparent distress when exposed to LFA signals. Results imply that pervasive noise found in vital sea turtle habitats could affect turtle behavior and ecology. The existing levels and additional increases, such as noise from Navy LFA sonar, could have more far-reaching effects on sea turtle orientation and health. With increasing human activity, it may be important to acknowledge potential impacts of underwater noise in future management strategies for sea turtle protection and species recovery.

As an action in the draft recovery plan for marine turtles in Australia, this study examined the extent of the indigenous take in the Broome/Dampier Peninsula area of the West Kimberley, Western Australia. Community members were consulted from 10/01 to 09/02 and provided information on the number of turtles taken, species, size, sex, number of families involved and the hunting time, tagged turtles and information on egg harvests. At least 209 turtles were taken by the four major communities. This is probably underestimated as there are several smaller communities and family groups that reside on the Peninsula that were not included in this survey. Two thirds of those turtles taken were female Chelonia mydas. Over half were taken by members of the One Arm Point, the largest indigenous community on the peninsula. Six tagged turtles were taken during this period, confirming that turtles being exploited in this area nest throughout the north-west shelf green turtle stock range.

Although officially protected, turtle populations nationally have been declining due to poaching of nesting females and eggs, captures in gillnets and prawn trawlers and disturbance of nesting beaches. Maziwe Island, for example, was an important nesting site for green, hawksbill and olive Ridley turtles until the early 1980s when the vegetation cover was destroyed and the island subsequently submerged. Natural causes however are much less significant than the unknown, but certainly very high, numbers of turtles killed by artisanal fishers, and from beach disturbance from hotel development, especially around Dar es Salaam and the main Zanzibar island, Unguja.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Sea, shrimp, and sea turtles - case study of a solution approach using teds in trawl nets in Orissa AN - 20478499; 9167545 AB - Extremely large numbers of olive ridleys (some 15-20,000) get killed along the coast of Orissa, India every year during the breeding season. The incidental capture during shrimp trawling has been identified as a major reason for this wanton killing of sea turtles in Orissa. While the trawl operators are still reluctant to agree to the fact that trawl fishing is indeed a major cause of sea turtle mortality, they are also reluctant to use TEDs. Their apprehension that a significant degree of catch loss will result if TEDs are used in trawl nets is not based on empirical data. To substantiate the efficacy of indigenously designed CIFT-TED on turtle exclusion and level of fish catch loss, experimental trawling with and without TEDs was conducted in the coastal waters off Orissa during November 2001 to March 2002. A total of 51 trawls carried out in 6 to 13 fathoms in the stratified study zones with TEDs resulted in 21 turtle captures and 100% escape. Another 21 trawls carried out in 12 to 35 fathoms without TEDs resulted in 5 turtle captures. The data reveals that most turtle captures occur within 5 km of shore and below 10 fathoms, emphasizing such marine habitats need to be safeguarded. The fish catch loss in the study zones with TEDs ranged from 2.3 to 10.3%. Further non-invasive TED demonstrations and an extension program are proposed as strategies to gain acceptance of TEDs as a solution for shrimp trawling and sea turtle interactions among fishrmenn in Orissa.

They have always been appreciated for their nutritional value, but also as an important source of foreign exchange. Since the 17th century, hawksbill shell was exported to Europe and since the 1960s to Japan. Green turtle calipee was exported in quantity to Britain during most of the 20th century. Since 1994, however, the Seychelles has provided complete legal protection to her turtle populations, and now values live sea turtles as a source of foreign exchange by providing a natural tourist attraction.

Normal eggs are white, spherical cleidoic eggs with a flexible calcareous shell (3% of total weight), a capsule of albumen (48.5%), and a yolk (48.5%). Odd shape eggs may be very large multi yolked or very small yolkless (Miller, 1997). The eggs are laid individually or in groups of two, three or occasionally four. The diameter, shape and the weight of the eggs laid in one clutch varies slightly within the clutches laid by the same female. This variation is considerable within and between species (Hirth, 1980; Miller, 1997). Leatherback turtles lay the largest eggs among all marine turtles (5.3cm and 90g), while olive ridley and Kemp's ridley turtles lay eggs of similar size (3.9cm and 35g; 3.8cm and 30g, respectively). Flatback eggs are nearly the same size as for the Leatherback (5.1cm and 80g). Green turtles lay medium to large eggs (4.5cm and 48g), and Loggerheads (4.0cm and 36g) and hawksbills lay small eggs (3.8cm and 28g; Miller, 1997). Generally, large marine turtle species such as leatherback and green turtles lay large eggs and small species such as hawksbills and Ridleys lay small eggs.

The extensive legal and illegal exploitation over last 40 years have had critical consequences on the populations of these species on these beaches and their populations have diminished dramatically (Cliffton et al, 1995; Marquez, op cit; Mack, 1983). The Mexican Government in 1986 decreed a protected zone for nesting and breeding; and in 1990 approved laws for total protection of all sea turtles in Mexican littoral zones. But excessive predation continues on these beaches, many eggs are plundered, many turtles are killed to obtain skins and meat. All species are captured on the beaches but more frequently with nets at sea, when congregating to breed. In the Playon de Mismaloya area, the names and dwellings of people involved in the trade are well-known, but nobody reports them for fear of retaliation.

Collection of eggs of both Green turtles and Loggerheads was also recorded. The cultural justifications for this activity are complex and relate to seasonal patterns of agriculture and fishery activity. The impact of this use on sea turtle populations was judged to be negligible but the nutritional importance of this activity to local people was significant. A conservation program, including complete protection of nesting turtles and reduction of egg harvest was successfully developed at this location. The incentives, benefits, costs and structural requirements to balance human needs and sea turtle population conservation are discussed.

Nesting is widely distributed from the island of Corfu (in the NW) to the island of Rhodes (in the SE) with five "major" nesting aggregations, i.e. Zakynthos, Kyparissia Bay, Lakonikos Bay, Bay of Chania and Rethymno (Margaritoulis, 2000) (Fig. 1). Nesting in Koroni was first noted during an basic survey of southern Peloponnesus beaches in 1982. From 1995 onwards, the nesting beach at Koroni was systematically monitored. Herein, we present the main nesting data for eight seasons (1995-2002) at Koroni.

Basic findings were that Palauan sea turtles are a highly valued, increasingly commercialized, and rapidly declining natural resource. Women reported that hawksbill turtle shell money (Toluk) is noticeably smaller in size than those produced in previous years, a possible indication of population decline. While subsistence and cultural uses remain important aspects of harvest of sea turtles in Palau, there is a perception that turtles are being hunted increasingly for economic benefit. Fishermen indicated the growing market for green turtle meat and turtle shell makes it very difficult for them to ignore the opportunity for quickly-earned cash. Concern was expressed about the increasing frequency and number of green turtles being transported from remote nesting areas to commercial centers for informal commercial sale. Tourist gift and jewelry stores now carry a wider array of hawksbill turtle shell products than ever before. While sea turtle resources are highly valued in Palau, long-standing management approaches have proven inadequate in terms of providing effective, sustainable management, and use of local sea turtle populations. Contributing factors to this condition include weak national interest to pursue stricter measures for sea turtle management, inherent difficulties with enforcement, and other problems linked to inhibiting social contexts. Despite these obstacles, there exist positive elements in contemporary Palauan society that may influence responsive and precautionary measures required to contribute to the recovery and the sustainable management of local turtle populations.

The Orissa coast has three major mass nesting sites, of which Gahirmatha is among the largest in the world. This study attempts to understand the genetic structure of these turtle populations along the east coast of India. For the purpose, olive ridley sea turtles sampled from four major nesting sites, three in Orissa and one in Tamil Nadu, were analysed using cross-species microsatellite markers and also nucleotide diversity in the mitochondrial control region. The microsatellite analysis revealed moderate to high level of polymorphism among the >80 individuals from four sites. Interestingly, all the samples exhibited heterozygosity for at least one microsatellite loci analysed in the study. This observation, in conjunction with the considerable variability seen earlier in the multilocus fingerprints, suggests that olive ridley turtles in Indian waters have reasonably wide genetic base and represent a genetically vibrant population. Further, allelic diversity at microsatellite loci as well as the mitochondrial haplotypes were found randomly distributed across the samples, suggesting that there is no genetic differentiation between the populations from different nesting sites and that these probably represent the continuum of the same one large interbreeding population all along the East coast of India. This observation provides support to the field data that olive ridley sea turtles routinely use more than one nesting beach in Orissa.

During an archaeological excavation in the city center, the remains of the bone structures of a marine turtle, Caretta caretta were recorded. The discovery took place on the bottom of a rectangular pool designed for salting fish. This pool and the other related structures were part of a huge Roman salted fish factory, which started its activities in the middle of the 1 st century BC and remained active until the end of the fifth century AD. Actually, the bones correspond to the final stages of this Roman industrial complex. The presence of these turtle bones in the factory can be related with some classical writings which mention the exploitation of marine turtle and cetacean meat as raw materials in the production of salted fish.

It is estimated that about 50% of the world population of Olive Ridley s nests in India between January and May, and about 90% of these nest in Gahirmatha. The Gahirmatha Marine Sanctuary, declared in 1997, encompasses an area of 1435 sq. km. Olive Ridleys usually arrive at Gahirmatha during October/November and remain untill April/May during which patrols are carried out by sanctuary staff. The entire beach is divided into segments, monitoring camps are set up and trained workers engaged to monitor mortality and sporadic nesting of sea turtles. Protection camps are also set up at vantage locations. Turtle monitoring committees are convened for coordination and joint patrols. Workshops and awareness camps are also organized in peripheral fishing villages. In-situ conservation efforts include protecting the nesting sites along the coast by engaging local youth as well as fencing off certain places to prevent entry of predators. Ex-situ conservation measures have been taken up in the last years through hatcheries at four places. Turtle tourism is being promoted involving children at accessible locations for awareness and education. Threats at Gahirmatha are due to the proliferation of mechanized fishing, beach erosion, northward shifting of nesting sites, light pollution from Outer Wheeler Island and Paradeep, loss of mangrove in the Mahanadi delta, predators and water pollution by industries at Paradeep.

A concessionaire has had exclusive rights to harvest eggs on Pangumbahan beach since the 1980s, whilst nesting beaches in Tasikmalaya are managed by the local authorities of the Fishery and Forestry Departments in cooperation with the local community. The south coast is 43 km long from west to east, and is used by four species of marine turtles. Other than green turtle, the area is also a nesting ground for leatherbacks (Dermochelys coriacea), hawksbills (Eretmochelys imbricata), and olive ridleys (Lepidochelys olivacea). These species are protected by law in Indonesia. Tasikmalayan already has a good understanding of the existence of marine turtles along the south coast of Tasikmalaya, based on a workshop conducted in October 2001 by ALAMI Foundation and supported by The Whitley Laing Foundation - UK (through the Rufford Small Grants 2001). This workshop identified that community needs included a better awareness and understanding on the conservation and management of marine turtles in their villages and beaches. ALAMI has helped building the capacity of local communities for the establishment of a community-based information centre for marine turtle conservation program, and the communities, with the support of local NGOs, have sustainably used marine turtles as a tourism attraction for years. Based on this, the southern coast of Tasikmalaya could become a successful model for community-based marine turtle and habitat management.

A total of 24 green turtles were equipped with time-released time-depth recorders (TDRs) and tracked with radio and sonic telemetry. Over 2,000 hours of dive data were collected. Green turtles ranged from 57.9 to 99.0 cm in straight carapace length and 27.3 to 145.4 kg in mass. We quantified resting, foraging, and surface activity based on TDR dive profiles and direct observation. The correlation between dive profile and inferred behavior was corroborated with the use of carapace-mounted video cameras (Crittercam). Green turtles exhibited diving patterns unlike those reported from other green turtle foraging habitats. We observed a mean of 65.5 and 38.8 foraging and resting dives per day, respectively. The mean time allocated to foraging activity per 24-h period was 11.2 h (46.7%) while that of resting activity was 8.6 h (35.8%). The mean time allocated to surface activity per 24-h period was 1.4 h (5.9%). Foraging dives were significantly shorter and shallower than resting dives. The mean foraging and resting depth modes were 7.5 m and 10.3 m, respectively. There was no correlation between turtle size and mean resting depth mode. In addition, the implications of changing oceanographic conditions on green turtle in-water behaviors and time-activity budgets are discussed.

The study was conducted in Karwar, (14 degree 48N 74 degree 07E) on the west coast of Karnataka state, India, a place where no earlier studies on turtles have been recorded so far. Turtle eggs were purchased from the local community and were reburied in lots ranging from 19-160, in an open beach hatchery (Devbag). The hatching rates obtained from the first lot of incubated eggs were very low (15% of 668 eggs). The probable reasons were identified to be fluctuating temperatures and low moisture content in the sand - conditions dissimilar to those we found in a natural nest. Movement induced mortality was also a possible reason for the low success rates, as eggs were brought from the market, and there was no record of their handling status.

The last two species have only been found feeding and passing through Libyan waters, while the first Caretta caretta has been recorded nesting on many beaches of the country, especially after the discovery of large population nesting activity in late 1990's. The present status of sea turtles in the Mediterranean as well in Libya as endangered species makes it necessary to develop a management program to preserve this population and conserve their habitats from various threats.

According to fishermen, both turtle sightings and catch increased in the summer. Observers reported catch per unit effort values matching those declared by interviewed fishermen, hence validating their answers. Both were combined along with declared fishing effort to produce a total catch estimate of 373 loggerhead incidental captures for 2001. Most of the turtles were taken by lobster trammel nets (196) or drifting long-lines (102). Although catch per unit effort was much lower for trammel nets than for drifting long-lines, total catch was much larger due to the larger size of the fleet. Loggerheads caught by lobster trammel nets were always dead, while no immediate mortality was observed in animals caught by drifting long-lines. Turtle bycatch in long-liners from southeastern Spain moving seasonally to the Balearic Islands have not been included in the calculations, so the number of by-caught turtles in the area is expected to be larger than numbers reported here.

Western science dates Aboriginal occupation of northern Australia as far back as 40 000 or even 100 000 years, while Aboriginal people believe they have occupied the land since the creation beings first formed the landscape and bestowed law and knowledge. Regardless of differences in interpretation of the past, the association between Aboriginal people and turtles is a long one and has led to a rich culture of law, ceremony, oral history and detailed traditional ecological knowledge about turtles. Looking after sea turtles through the management of hunting and egg collection and the practice and performance of rituals, dances and songs remain an important aspect of contemporary environmental management by coastal Aboriginal people.

The present work presents the results from an expedition to Mauritania in September 2002 for the study of a coastal area to the south of the National Park Banc D'arguin, using informal interviews and night patrols to determine turtle activity. Through this we found interesting information on nesting activities of Caretta caretta and Chelonia mydas in a defined area of about ten kilometers in a totally deserted region. Based on the data obtained in this brief space of time, as well as the collated information from the people on nesting activities, the studied area could be an important nesting site, although further studies are needed to verify this over the coming years.

These subpopulations differ demographically. The smaller northern subpopulation is decreasing, while the larger southern subpopulation south of Cape Canaveral is increasing or stable. To meaningfully interpret and manage these subpopulations, accurate sex ratios of the hatchlings recruiting to the next stage must be determined. The purpose of this study was to empirically determine the sex ratios of loggerhead sea turtle nests from both major subpopulations using endoscopic analysis of gonadal morphology. Eleven study sites distributed along a latitudinal gradient (N to S) were sampled 3 times during the season. Hatchlings were raised for approximately 12 weeks to a minimum size of 120g and then their sex was determined. To verify the identification of the gonads, a subsample of the animals was biopsied: a small biopsy was taken of the anterior (cranial) end of one gonad for histological examination. Sex ratios for the southern subpopulation turtles were low (to date 13.5 % males: 86.5% females) and consistent with what temperature-based and incubation-based models might predict. The sex ratios of the northern beaches were significantly lower than expected producing maximally 39% males and 61% females. This very low output of males confirms the expected skewed sex ratio for loggerhead sea turtles. Additionally it provides additional support for action to rigorously protect the northern subpopulation because it is effectively producing 70-80 % of the males.

This use may expose them to a variety of pollutants, including heavy metals. Although over 6,000 sea turtles have stranded along Texas shores since 1980, the role of marine pollution in these mortalities is not documented, especially as it relates to heavy metals discharged from the petrochemical industry. This study compares heavy metal (Cu, Cd, Hg and Pb) concentrations in liver, kidney, muscle and carapace tissues of Kemp's ridley, loggerhead and green sea turtles stranding along the Texas coast during 2001-2002.

Many strandings were found, especially around the mouth of Ise Bay, where a new type of pound nets (which have top nets obstructing surfacing turtles) is becoming popular, and intensive trawl fisheries for anchovy post larvae operate. Among all the reported strandings, 275 turtles were measured. The Mean, Minimum and Maximum SCL were 74. lcm, 12cm and 134cm, respectively. Considering that the minimum size of nesting loggerheads in Japan is 70cm, turtles with an SCL less than 70 cm can be considered premature, and the distribution of premature turtles around Japan was previously unknown. More than sixty percent of the strandings found in Chiba, Ibaraki, and Fukushima (the northeastern district) were of premature size, while only about 20% were premature size turtles in the other parts of Japan. The guts of most strandings found in the northeastern district were full of crustaceans. These results suggest that this area is major foraging ground for premature loggerhead turtles, in contrast with the East China Sea for matured turtles.

OCs are known to disrupt the endocrine system and cause feminization of reptiles (Guillette et al. 1996; de Solla et al. 1998; Willingham and Crews 2000), but the effects of OCs on sea turtles have not yet been thoroughly investigated. Juvenile sea turtles have very low levels of circulating estradiol and may be highly sensitive to estrogen and estrogenic contaminants. Estradiol injections have been shown to produce a female-specific protein, vitellogenin (VTG) in both juvenile and male turtles (Heck et al. 1997). The goals of this study were to 1) determine if environmental exposure to OC contaminants can cause abnormal production of VTG in loggerhead sea turtles, and 2) develop an in vitro model system for assessing the effects of contaminants on aromatase activity using a green sea turtle testes cell line (GST-TS).

Blood was the most accurate overall predictor of internal Hg burden (mean R super(2) = 0.9430), followed by keratin (mean R super(2) = 0.8726). Mercury content in blood and keratin from 34 live captures was 0.0051-0.1883 mu g/g and 0.061-2.8373 mu g/g respectively, were highly correlated (linear regression R super(2) = 0.9257, P = 0.0001), and increased significantly with body weight (R super(2) = 0.1725, P = 0.0162, R super(2) = 0.1874, P = 0.0119). The residuals from this regression (representing recent Hg intake in blood compared to the average past deposition measured in keratin) were modeled in a multiple regression with 12 parameters. Only the proximity of capture site to industrial river mouth was significant (P = 0.0102). In light of the recent evidence for foraging site fidelity, these areas of elevated anthropogenic Hg may explain the variability in contamination and the occasional 'hot turtles' seen in this study with potentially toxic Hg burdens. Mean blood and keratin Hg concentrations in dead turtles were significantly higher than live turtles (P = 0.0023 and P = 0.0499). This trend could reflect a higher rate of Hg accumulation in chronically ill loggerheads or an immunotoxic effect by Hg that increases mortality. Hematology and immune function assay of selected individuals revealed a negative relationship between blood Hg concentration and total white blood cell count (P = 0.0198) and b-cell proliferation (P = 0.0112) suggesting these concentrations of Hg may be capable of immunosuppression that could increase the susceptibility of loggerheads to pathogens such as Fibropapilloma.

Extensive blooms, lasting up to four months, have recently been observed in Moreton Bay, Australia (Dennisson et al. 1999). The cyanobacteria contains a suite of biologically active compounds including Lyngbyatoxin A (LA) and Debromoaplysiatoxin (DAT) (Mynderse et al. 1977, Carellina et al. 1979), toxins which were determined to be the cause of outbreaks of contact dermatitis in Hawaii during 1950's (Grauer 1961) and in Japan during 1970's (Hashimoto et al. 1976) and have since been shown to be potent tumour promoters (Fujiki et al. 1983, 1984). Tumour promoting toxins from marine organisms have been implicated in the debilitating marine turtle disease fibropapillomatosis (FP) (Landsberg et al. 1999), a disease that has been observed in turtles in areas where L. majuscula is in bloom.

Because nesting beaches are typically nutrient-poor, an increase in nitrogen (N) concentrations could be critical for maintaining dune vegetation and promoting stabilization from erosion (Anderson & Polis 1999). The 40.5 km stretch of beach between Melbourne Beach and Wabasso Beach, Florida, supports the world's third largest nesting population of loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) and the largest nesting population of green turtles (Chelonia mydas) in the continental United States. Nest locations of both species exhibit similar clinal patterns, ranging from approximately 100 nests per km in the northern part of the beach to over 1000 nests per km in the southern portion of the beach (Weishampel et al. 2002). Since marine nutrient sources are typically enriched in d15N compared to terrestrial sources, stable isotopes can be used as source markers to track nutrient flows through ecosystems (Ben-David et al. 1998).

The facts indicate that turtles are frequently trapped in fishermen's nets, and occasionally they are processed, eaten and their carapaces are sold. Taking this into account for protecting these ancient reptiles which ply our seas, we consider an educational programme essential. During 2002, Karumbe carried out a preliminary survey at twelve locations along the coastline, covering a total of 530 km (Rio de la Plata estuary and Atlantic Ocean), working with children and fishermen of the most important fishing communities. Our objective was to make the local people aware of the present situation regarding sea turtles, as well as collecting the necessary information for designing an Educational Project for the critical areas. In this first evaluation, we discovered a great interest on the topic, both by children and adults. We also noted that some children do not attend school, but they are very receptive to learning about these animals, children who sometimes have seen the turtles alive or dead trapped in a net or as part of a meal. We consider it possible and necessary, based on our findings, to continue and extend the activities in critical areas, promoting the cooperative work with the fishermen and their families, with children transmitting the message of the pressing need for a new future for sea turtles.

These were tracked successfully for approximately 15 days when they returned to Bare Sand Island to nest. The satellite tracking results indicated that each of the turtles moved quickly away from the island after nesting. One individual travelled approximately 22 km in one day and remained at that location Southwest of the island until the day before she returned to the island and nested. Another two went approximately 15 km to the Northeast of the island and remained in the area before returning to nest 14 days later. The remaining turtle travelled 30 km to the Northwest of the island and remained in at that location until returning to the island to nest Time depth recorders attached to these tracked turtles indicated that they spent a good deal of their time resting on the bottom. They went to the surface to breathe and then returned to approximately the same depth. Each turtle spent the inter-nesting period in waters up to 40 metres in depth. They spent very little time in the water column as most of their time depth profiles showed a strong tidal cycle that indicated the turtles were stationary at rest on the bottom. It appears that the Flatback Sea Turtles at Bare Sand Island occupy an inter-nesting habitat that is between 30 to 40 metres in depth.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Little loggerheads packed with pelagic plastic AN - 20477126; 9167461 AB - Posthatchling loggerheads inhabit oceanic fronts where floating material collects. During tropical storms, these young turtles are occasionally swept onto Florida (USA) beaches. Between 1994 and 1999, there were 686 posthatchling loggerheads stranded in Florida, predominantly on the central Atlantic beaches of the peninsula. In a sample of 102 loggerheads that had stranded dead, 83 had yolk sacs of less than 1 cm and had begun feeding. Of these 83 turtles, 83.1% had ingested plastics and 33.7% had ingested tar. Gut contents of 50 of these turtles were analyzed for volumetric proportions of items using microsterology. Animal material was greatest in mean volume (46%), followed by plant material (44%) and anthropogenic debris (10%). Ingested debris was mostly plastics (90% by volume), followed by tar (7.8%), and other debris (1.8%) including latex and paraffin. Nearly all ingested plastics were consistent with high-density polyethylene that had photo-degraded into small shards or that was ingested as spherical precursor pellets. Colors of ingested plastics varied greatly but were principally white, light (off-white), or translucent. Size frequency data suggest that loggerheads newly recruited to the open ocean take weeks to gain the plastic loads observed. It is clear that young turtles suffer lethal and sublethal effects from plastics and tar ingestion and that the frequency of this problem is alarmingly high.

Traditionally, Poilao has been regarded as a sacred site by the Bijagos people, and this has contributed to turtle conservation. However, an emerging threat is the rapid development of fisheries in this region. In order to support efforts towards the recently established MoU Concerning Conservation Measures for Marine Turtles of the Atlantic Coast of Africa under the CMS we set out to identify important foraging areas for green turtles from this rookery. We attached 10 satellite transmitters to nesting turtles in November 2001 and were then able to follow these individuals via satellite giving insights into internesting and migratory behaviour.

A large number of turtles also die as incidental catch in trawl and gill net fisheries. Most of the local fishermen in Andhra Pradesh are not aware of the status of sea turtles and their legal protection nor are they aware of fishing regulations that protect the rights of traditional fishing communities. With regard to trawler communities, extensive campaigning needs to be carried out to implement the use of Turtle Excluder Devices (TED). The involvement of local communities is critical to the long term conservation of sea turtles as well as coastal habitats of Andhra Pradesh. Non-government organizations create a good link between local community and conservation action.

Sequence analysis of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region revealed ten different haplotypes, four of which were previously undescribed. We examined fine-scale structure among three primary and seven minor nesting beaches on the island over three nesting seasons. Weak but significant differentiation among the primary beaches when pooled with nearby minor beaches suggested a degree of regional philopatry to specific areas of the island and to Long Beach (the major nesting beach) in particular. We used rarefaction analysis to estimate sample sizes adequate to describe a desired proportion of the mtDNA variation in a sea turtle nesting population and compared our results with previous genetic studies in Ascension using fewer samples. We stress the implications of sampling error in the study of green turtle rookeries and confirm the importance of increased resolution and statistical power when examining large-scale variation.

Preliminary data suggest that turtles amplify environmental signals through biomagnification, thus making them extremely sensitive biomonitors. Turtles are effective, long-term bioaccumulators that can function as sentinels of the chemical makeup of a region.

With the aim of elucidating the interaction of these features we measured oxygen consumption rate (VO sub(2)) in 9 loggerhead turtles, Caretta caretta, (body mass = 2 - 60 kg), kept at ambient water temperature (Tw) from the Gulf of Naples (Italy) from Sep 2000 through Feb 2001 (Tw range = 15 - 27C). VO sub(2) decreased drastically (Q10 = 5.4) while dive duration increased to a maximum of 1.5 - 2 h in the winter, when turtles were mainly resting. However, no correlation between VO sub(2) and dive duration was established for these winter resting dives. The aerobic dive limit (ADL) was calculated for various sized turtles and various Tw. Sea turtles, because of their low metabolic scope, have an aerobic diving capacity of up to 8 h (at Tw = 15C) which exceeds by far any previously reported ADL of marine divering animals, and also their own voluntary dive times. Additionally, the underwater weight (Muw) of 7 turtles was recorded while they were resting submerged on the bottom of the tank. Turtles were slightly negatively buoyant (Muw = 3-7 gkg super(-1)), but their Muw increased during the apnoeic period. This was explained by pulmonary gas loss due to oxygen consumption. VO sub(2) calculated from these data corresponded well with expected VO sub(2), based on the results from the preceding experiment.

The National Park was declared in 1972, with an 221.12 Ha surface area, some 46 coralline keys, and the most important reef formations in the country and a great quantity of marine fanerogam habitats. The FCLR has carried out conservation works on turtles from 1976, and starting in 1999 began an integrated conservation and development program with five components that integrate the scientific work with that of conservation, environmental education, and integration of the local communities in the conservation processes for these species. Sea turtle nesting has been confirmed in 32 of the 46 islands with sandy beaches, with an annual nesting activity of about 262 nests, 180 of these by hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata), 61 of these green (Chelonia mydas), 11 by leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) and ten loggerhead (Caretta caretta) turtles. The marine areas are important feeding habitats for hawksbill and green turtles. Work with the communities has been centered on the combining the work of local institutions and transmitting the information on problems in conservation of these species, concentrating efforts of sensitization among children of school ages, fishing communities and tourism associations, and training processes directed to the authorities, diving associations and fishermens' communities.

However, there are a number of limitations in interpreting position data derived from Doppler-shift calculations through the ARGOS system, and these are rarely dealt with adequately or efficiently in marine turtle work. This paper explores some of the limitations and options for data analysis, to furnish repeatable, objective methods that provide the most effective utilization of location data. Three species of turtles in three different localities were involved in this study: Caretta caretta in Brazil, Lepidochelys olivacea in India, and Chelonia mydas in Philippines; data were collected from a total of 18 individuals between 1998 and 2001. One option is to use only 'standard locations' (LC 3, LC 2, and/or LC 1), that ARGOS provides together with error estimates, but with marine turtle work this often means using 20% or less of the position data available. Alternatively, ARGOS position data can be 'filtered' based on preset distance, angle and rate criteria (see also Lemke et al., this volume). Comparisons of six sets of data were made (all data; highest quality [LC3]; two highest ARGOS categories of data [LC3 and LC2]; all data assigned an error by Argos [LC3, LC2 and LC1]; data filtered based on distance, angle and rate; and only the best position per day, selected throught a distance-angle-rate filter). The results indicate that using the 'best' position per day provides the most useful data for analyzing patterns and rates of movement as well as 'home ranges'.

Margarita island (1051' to 1111'N, and 6346' to 6424'W), is located in the South Caribbean, approximately 23 km of the coast of Venezuela. It is the biggest of three islands that forms Nueva Esparta state encompassing 1,071 km super(2). This island is an important nesting site for four sea turtle species: Dermochelys coriacea, Caretta caretta, Eretmochelys imbricata and Chelonia mydas. "Parguito" beach, on the northeast of the island, is approximately 900 m long and 20 m wide, and is one of the most important beaches for the leatherback turtle. This study aimed to create a database for Maximum Carapace Length and Maximum Carapace Width measurements of a representative number of leatherback turtle hatchlings.

This followed increased incidents of turtle mortality (Wamukoya, 1997) mainly occasioned by fishing activities and reportedly declining populations (Wamukoya, 1997, Frazier, 1975) within the Western Indian Ocean region as a whole. The committee sought to specifically address the problems of illegal poaching of turtle eggs and meat and a burgeoning list of threats posed by the growth of the tourism industry. There have also been attempts to institute measures, which can withstand gaps in national legislation (Cap 376 of the Wildlife Act and Cap 378 of the Fisheries Act) mainly through community and stakeholder involvement and participation in the conservation process. The guiding objectives relate to conservation and management driven research and monitoring, capacity building and awareness, community participation and building of networks and collaborative strategies (KESCOM, 1999).

We placed Lotek LTD1021A data loggers on 19 turtles after oviposition while the turtles were on the beach. The data loggers measured time, depth, light and water temperature. We retrieved data loggers from the turtles during subsequent nestings on the beach. Data Analysis indicated that immediately after leaving the beach all 19 turtles headed North into the Gulf of Papagayo and traveled an average of 20 - 40 km per day. For the first 6 days immediately after nesting the female leatherbacks had average dives of 60 - 160 meters that reflected a pattern of 10 - 16 minute, V shaped dives down to water temperatures that averaged between 14 - 16 degree C, with little bottom time. During the last 1 - 3 days prior to the subsequent nesting the turtles returned to a location directly off the nesting beach and remained in the top 20 meters with only shallow dives. They remained in water that was above 25 degree C. During this time there were a number of U shaped dives in which the female appeared to remain on the bottom for 2 - 4 minutes.

The great abundance of Caretta caretta feeding near the western coast coincides with the long line fishery season. This activity has become an increasing threat and the most important mortality factor known in the Mediterranean Sea. Studies on marine turtle bycatch show an alarming situation of some 35,000 or more loggerheads caught annually in the western and central Mediterranean sea, of which some 15,000 to 20,000 are caught every year by Spanish long line vessels alone.

This will also benefit people in a greater regional context as the marine living resources play a vital role in national economy and also assist in balancing regional ecosystems. One of the target resources are sea turtles. The Department of Fisheries (DoF) of Cambodia has set up project to conserve sea turtles in cooperation with both government and non-government agencies and has also issued a Law and Declarations to minimize impacts to turtles.

Previous studies of FP in Kaneohe Bay on the island of Oahu have shown severe tumor affliction as having a significant impact on green turtle growth rates (Balazs et al., 2000). Many turtles with severe FP also have poor body condition. In Hawaii, stranded turtles debilitated with FP are evaluated for possible rehabilitation. If prognosis for survival is deemed poor by two independent veterinary exams, turtles are humanely euthanized and a thorough necropsy is performed. During previous necropsies of severely tumored turtles, the liver and spleen showed gross evidence of shrinkage. We set out to quantify the degree of internal organ shrinkage by weighing organs and relating organ weights to degree of tumor severity.

The prohibition of the trade of sea turtles and their by products has ignited pros and contra arguments from turtle traders and concessionaires in major trade places in Indonesia. Bali turtle traders launched the strongest protest against the new law, while some turtle egg concessionaires did not launch any protests, while in Derawan Islands (East Kalimantan), the biggest concessionaire supported the law by upholding the Regent's Decree on turtle conservation in the islands by releasing two major turtle islands for conservation.

AN - 20476859; 9167534 AB - Notwithstanding the vigorous campaign for TEDs, the Indian trawlers are still hesitant to use them. The TED was designed basically for exclusive shrimp trawling, and they argue it is unsuitable for the mixed catch they invariably target. Other than TEDs, any device would be acceptable provided it does not critically hamper their mixed catch. At this critical juncture of the ill-fated TED in India, a ray of hope is now visible, with the emergence of a new device: the Trawl Guard, claimed by its inventors to contain the virtues of TED minus its vices. The new device, a brain-child of two Oriya coastal fishermen, seems to be a foolproof mechanism for disposal of all large-size objects including turtles, while allowing both shrimp and fish into the net. Originating in the aftermath of Orissa Super-Cyclone 1999 and in response to the vexing problem the trawlers experienced from obstructions by big logs that accumulated on the seabed, the device not only protects trawl-nets from accidental damage by such obstructions but also disallowed inadvertent movement of turtles while retaining the full mixed-catch of shrimp and fish in the net. Unlike the metallic TED, fitted ingenuously at the throat of a bifurcated trawl-net, the inexpensive Trawl Guard is made of roughly 4 kg of nylon rope only and fitted at the mouth of net. Any average fisherman can prepare, install and maintain it with ease. Trawl Guards, if promoted further, might solve the long-drawn-out TED tangle, at least for Indian trawlers.

Such a learning network would support the development of skills, best practices, and capacity related to data collection, project monitoring, evaluation, and communication elements that seem crucially important and could be improved among many existing and nascent turtle projects. In collaboration with turtle researchers, conservation practitioners and existing projects and networks, such an association of projects will support the collection and exchange of data, as many networks do, while promoting project evaluation and adaptive management principles to effectively learn how to do conservation better over time, as occurred in the Biodiversity Conservation Network (www.bcnet.org) and is occurring in the Locally Managed Marine Area Network (www.lmmanetwork.org). This paper will focus on the development of such a learning network. Preliminary discussions have occurred over the previous year with prominent sea turtle researchers, coordinators, and practitioners concerning the creation and value of such a network, potential important elements and criteria involved, and supportive activities that could be undertaken. Included is a discussion of progress to date and next-steps planned for the future. A summary of results of meetings and key ideas among all interested groups are presented and discussed.

Only in this manner can really efficient strategies that guarantee the equilibrium among the man and the nature be developed. Based on this, the Sea Turtles of the Gulf of Venezuela Working Group (GTTM-GV) has as one of its main objectives implementing and executing environmental education plans directed at the community. Among these are an activity named the Turtle Day, a process that is carried out annually in various localities of the Gulf of Venezuela, and which includes educational chats directed to fishermen and children, interactive forums, plays, puppets and stories, all allusive to sea turtles and to their conservation. This year, the activity was carried out on Zapara Island with the help of 100 people, children and fishermen from the Zapara, the Maraca islands, San Carlos and Toas, and the main subject was the leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea). Informative and educational posters were presented to the teachers of the schools to explain the situation and need for protection of sea turtles and 'Turtle Patrols' were developed for children between 8 and 17 years, to represent their communities as vigilantes of the welfare and conservation of the sea turtles.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Water turnover rates and metabolism in free-swimming female leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) AN - 20476787; 9167488 AB - Leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) nesting at Parque Nacional Marino Las Baulas, Costa Rica, nest on average 7-8 times in a season, with an internesting period of 9-10 days. It is not clear what activities turtles perform during the internesting period. The overall cost of migration to and from the nesting grounds, in addition to the cost of making multiple clutches and coming onto land to deposit them in the sand must be high, so quantification of the energy expenditure of the internesting period will clarify an important component of the leatherback energy budget for the complete nesting process. All published metabolic studies of sea turtles have been performed on animals during the terrestrial nesting process or while restrained. No study has quantified the metabolic energy expenditure of free-swimming sea turtles. Because the vast majority of a sea turtle's life is spent at sea, quantification of the metabolic costs of free-ranging activities for adult leatherbacks is crucial to understanding energetic requirements of these animals.

AN - 20476649; 9167464 AB - Three main Mediterranean green turtle nesting grounds are located along the south east cost of Turkey: Kazanli, Akyatan and Samandagi. Kazanli beach with its high nest density was identified as the most important one in the past. Strong human impacts during the last ten years have lead to an alarming situation according to several authors. During the 2001 nesting season a survey was conducted from June to end of September. Different threats were observed impacting on the nesting population, such as light pollution, predation, at-sea pollution, human beach use, vehicles on the beach, erosion, restaurants and hotels on the beach, fishing, and agriculture. Even though the list of threats is long, a discrete number of nests was recorded on this small stretch of Mediterranean coast. According to historical information, the area was a perfect green turtle nesting habitat composed of large sand dunes. The author's hypothesis is that we are dealing with the last individuals of the nesting population, which are still emerging following their strong 'site fidelity' and becoming resilient to the increased human impacts. Further scientific investigation is urgently needed in the area to evaluate the status of the population and to apply conservation strategies.

In Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia, these blooms appear to be increasing in frequency and magnitude (Dennison et al. 1999; Watkinson, 2000; Osborne et al. 2001). Since the seagrass beds in Moreton Bay are an important food source for the green turtle (Chelonia mydas), the presence of toxic L. majuscula may affect these herbivores. This study investigated whether captive C. mydas would (i) exercise choice if given the option of diets with and without L. majuscula, and (ii) show the ability to avoid seagrass with L majuscula. The effect of toxin (lyngbyatoxin a, LA) on the amount of L. majuscula ingested was examined. Potential ingestion rates of L. majuscula by wild green turtles in Moreton Bay were also estimated.

On this beach, as has occurred in the rest of the Eastern Pacific, the leatherback nesting population has suffered a drastic collapse. Over time, biologists have observed some changes in reproductive parameters such as size of the females, clutch frequency, clutch size and total fecundity, and the purpose of this work is to highlight these variations, with an overall objective of analysing reproductive and population parameters obtained from 1983 to 1999 on this nesting beach. Specific objectives were to show fluctuations over time in Curved Carapace Length, Clutch Size and Total Fecundity, and Clutch Frequency.

Between 1904 and 1968, over-exploitation of green turtles in Seychelles to produce calipee for export to Europe reduced annual nesting numbers at Aldabra to well below 1,000 females nesting annually during the late 1960s (Frazier 1976, 1984; Hirth & Carr 1970) and mid-1970s (Gibson 1979). In 1968, Seychelles halted the export of green turtle products and began to manage Aldabra as a nature reserve. Since 1981, turtle nesting activity has been monitored at Aldabra using methodologies consistent from year to year, thus enabling an assessment of population trends between 1981 and the present.

The required minimum escape opening dimensions for TEDs were based on stranding data and documented turtle captures aboard commercial shrimp trawlers. Since 1994, NOAA Fisheries has periodically enacted temporary emergency regulations requiring offshore shrimp fishers to use an enlarged TED escape opening during times of high leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) concentrations. The required leatherback opening dimension measured 71 inches (180 cm) when stretched horizontally. The need for full-time offshore use of enlarged TED escape openings was determined through a comparison of the size of stranded sea turtles with the minimum required TED opening size (Epperly, et al., 2002). This comparison found that 33- 47% of stranded loggerheads (Caretta caretta) and a small proportion of stranded green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) were too large to fit through the minimum-size required TED opening. Two methods for enlarging the TED opening have been developed and will be required in all TEDs used in offshore waters of the southeast U.S. beginning August 15, 2003. These new openings are: a 71 inch (180 cm) TED opening, or a double cover opening (Federal Register, 2001). Additionally, the minimum TED frame size will increase to 32 inch (81 cm) in outside diameter.

This request was supported with shrimp trawl fishery observer data gathered by the Sea Turtle Restoration Project's Office in Costa Rica. In July 2000, Costa Rica was allowed to use a 6-inch bar spacing on a temporary basis for two years, after which a report needed to be submitted with observer data proving the modification did not represent a threat to sea turtles. A six month observer program was carried out from February to July 2002 on commercial vessels of the Costa Rican shrimp fleet. Nevertheless, it was not possible to gather sufficient information on the performance of six inch TEDs, as the devices were either removed or sewn shut during more than 50% of the total observer hours (2700 hours). The effectiveness of a 6-inch bar spacing TED, or for that matter any TED design, is meaningless if fishers do not use them. Countries obtain a certification by the United States as a TED-using country by having TEDs installed one day a year when the US Fishery inspectors carry out their ANNOUNCED inspection. Sea turtles are DEAD without a TED, and the US government continues to certify countries that do not use them.

This population is comprised of local people and nomadic fishermen which inhabit the coast during specific parts of the year. For both, the main feeding source comes from fishing, more or less artisanal in nature, although the nomadic populations also fish as like part of an organized business that sends the fish toward Nouakchot, the capital, where it is marketed. In the present study we analised some of the relationships between the marine turtles and the communities from the south of the Banc D'arguin National Park, through data gathered with informal interviews and site visits to the local communities and nomadic encampments. Among the relationships we found were accidental fishing, and subsequent consumption of turtles (mainly of juveniles), as well as the direct capture of mature individuals in the process of nesting, and consumption by local residents. It is presumed the turtles form the only nutritious resource other than fish in the area.

The Brazilian Navy maintains a 40-man garrison, the only local human population. Since 1982, Projeto TAMAR-IBAMA has been monitoring this area through expeditions with logistical support from the Brazilian Navy. A survey of nest numbers was carried out between December 7th 1999, and April 4th 2000. Nine beaches comprising 2,9 km were patrolled daily in the early morning and female emergences were counted. 90.92% of the total female emergences were recorded on four beaches, which were also patrolled once a week at night. During this period 10,417 female emergences were counted, resulting in an 4,808 estimated nests. These results suggest a nesting population of over 1,500-2m000 females per year at Trindade Island, a very important green turtle population in the South Atlantic.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Energetic and endocrine dynamics in breeding male green turtles: Implications for reproductive tactics AN - 20476244; 9167485 AB - Male green turtles lose significant body condition during their migration and courtship period. Concurrent with these physical changes, a metabolic shift from lipid-based to protein-based substrates is evident. In addition at the population level, migrant breeding males have a significantly smaller CORT response to the capture/restraint stressor compared to non-breeding males and that this decreased response coincided with the generally poorer body condition of migrant breeders. In contrast, plasma androgen levels decreased significantly in response to the capture/restraint stressor in migrant breeding males, but not in non-breeding and pre-migrant breeding males. For individual migrant breeding males, the magnitude of their CORT and androgen responses to the capture/restraint stressor was highly correlated with their body condition and body length, respectively. These results demonstrate that male green turtles exhibit complex interactions in their energetic and endocrine responses during breeding and that this variation is associated with individual differences in the males physical state. This interplay between energetic and endocrinal criteria is used as basis to examine how such state dependent processes could have important consequences for male green turtle reproduction, especially reproductive strategies used during breeding.

Loggerheads (Caretta caretta), Green turtles (Chelonia mydas) and leatherbacks (Dermochelys coriacea) regularly nest on this beach. Green turtle nesting has been growing exponentially since 1990 and set a new record again in 2002 with 2,588 nests. Loggerhead nesting finished as the second lowest year (11,631 nests) since 1990 but that number still constitutes a 25.1% increase above the long term average of the 1980s. Leatherback nest production at 11 nests was the lowest since 1997. We relate a number of especially significant tag recovery events that occurred during the 2002 season. Long term trends and related issues are discussed.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Respiratory and metabolic variables of captive and wild caught juvenile green (Chelonia mydas), Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempi) and loggerhead (Caretta caretta) sea turtles AN - 20476100; 9167456 AB - Few studies have examined the respiratory and metabolic variables of juvenile sea turtles. The reports that do exist have not measured physiological and metabolic variables simultaneously as was done in this study, with the exception of work done on leatherbacks by Paladino et al. (1996). The goal of this investigation was to measure eight respiratory and metabolic parameters, including heart rate, respiratory frequency, respiratory ventilation, tidal volume, core body temperature, oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and a calculation of the respiratory quotient (VCO sub(2)/VO sub(2)), on the same individual juvenile sea turtles. We analyzed these variables on two Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempi), one loggerhead (Caretta caretta), and two green (Chelonia mydas) sea turtles, all estimated to be between 1-3 years of age. The turtles were studied either at the Cayman Islands sea turtle farm or after recovery and before release as cold-stunned animals in Long Island Sound. We collected data for fasting and non-fasting juvenile turtles both at rest and during terrestrial exercise. However, active heart rates were obtained immediately after exercise because of EMG interference with EKG recordings.

It was the primary objective of this study to determine the effects of nest depth on the emergence lag of hatchlings and how this effected their quality in terms of running performance, mass:length ratio and triglyceride levels. This study further aimed to investigate the difference in quality of hatchlings that successfully emerged and those found alive in nests excavated six days after the emergence of the first hatchlings.

On this 18 km long nesting beach, every year there are some 3000 leatherback sea turtle nests. Among the main predators of leatherback nests are wild pigs. They destroy more than 80 percent of nests every year. Since 2001, the Indonesia Sea Turtle Research Center has installed a high voltage fence in this area to prevent depredation of the nests and it has reduced the number of destroyed nests to < 10 %. The Indonesia Sea turtle Research Center, along with other institutions, has trained local people to help in surveying, monitoring and protecting turtle nests in the last five years. Currently, all sea turtle eggs in Jamursba-Medi beach are hatched naturally. This poster will explain the current status of nesting condition and the system used.

The Andaman and Nicobar islands, the Lakshadweep islands and the Gulf of Mannar are important feeding grounds for the turtles. Gahirmatha beach in Orissa state is unique for sea turtle nesting wherein mass nesting of thousands of Olive Ridleys occur every year. Olive Ridleys also nests along Point Calimere Sanctuary in mid Tamil Nadu coast. But the predation rate is high threatening the population. In Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay, turtle fishing was commonplace during the sixties and seventies and regular turtle trade existed between India and Sri Lanka. In order to protect turtles, all the five species have been brought under Schedule I of the Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act 1972 and listed in Appendix I of CITES. In spite of these measures, illegal turtle meat trade is still going on along Tuticorin coast of Gulf of Mannar. Turtle poisoning has been reported along this coast in earlier days. The incidental catches, mostly Chelonia mydas, are traded for meat. The turtle meat is highly priced as it is said to be having medicinal property. On an average three to five turtles are brought to the market every week. Based on the demand, the turtles are also said to be hunted illegally. Enforcing the use of TEDs, public awareness campaigns, and a participatory approach, among others, are considered as vital strategies to conserve the depleting turtle resources.

The funnel shaped bay at the footstep of Bengal offers a very favorable and safe feeding and breeding ground of five species of sea turtles: green, Olive ridley, loggerhead and hawksbill. The Leatherback turtles are vagrant in Bangladesh waters. All sea turtles visit the Bangladesh coast to nest during the winter, from November through to January. The east coast is the main breeding ground for turtles. The main issues pertaining to sea turtle conservation in Bangladesh are encroachment of nesting beaches and development intervention, egg poaching, and bycatch of turtles in marine fisheries (TED are not used at present).

As part of TCOT, levels of use (consumptive and non-consumptive), the role use plays in local economies and cultures, and stakeholder views on management options are all being assessed. The methodological challenges for doing so in a comparative manner across six different territories, through diverse in-country partner organizations and individuals (including field scientists, administrators, NGO's and enforcement officers), and with a multidisciplinary research team are considerable. Based on a one-week workshop with representatives from all OT partner organisations to develop research tools, and on preliminary fieldwork in Turks and Caicos Islands and Anguilla, this paper discusses the challenges of participatory, multidisciplinary research in a diverse region, and the implications of this approach for the accurate assessment of levels and values of use. In doing so, the opportunities and challenges associated with 'new' conservation in general are considered.

They are the green turtle (Chelonia mydas), the olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea), loggerhead (Caretta caretta), hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata) and leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea). Despite the protection of sea turtles through government legislation since 1972, sea turtles are still being exploited by Sri Lankan fishermen for their meat and eggs. Coral mining, destruction of coastal vegetation (such as mangroves and sea grass beds), coastal erosion, non-scientific hatchery practices, uncontrolled tourism, some coastal development activities and accidental by-catch are the other key threats for sea turtles in Sri Lanka.

These nutrients are obtained by turtles either directly from the diet or through conversion of dietary carotenoids (vitamin A only). Growth, differentiation and integrity of epithelial tissue, bone remodeling, reproduction and vision are all reliant on a supply of vitamin A. Vitamin E is an integral constituent of cell membranes where it acts as an antioxidant and free radical scavenger. Both vitamins are necessary for proper immune system function, and therefore are of interest in attempting to understand the health status of populations afflicted with fibropapilloma disease. This study establishes baseline plasma levels for vitamins A and E in juvenile marine turtles (Caretta caretta and Chelonia mydas) and compares vitamin levels to turtle fibropapilloma status. Populations studied include: Chelonia and Caretta from the Indian River Lagoon (IRL) in Indian River County, Chelonia from the near-shore reef off Indian River County and Chelonia from the Trident Submarine Basin in Brevard County. Trident Basin turtles have had no incidence of fibropapillomatosis whereas some Chelonia from the near-shore reef and both species from the IRL have expressed the disease. Comparisons also will be made between vitamin levels in turtles from these three different developmental habitats.

N. depressus lay an average of 50 eggs at an average nest depth of 50cm (Limpus 1995). Variation in clutch size may occur at the time of laying due to maternal variation or the nesting turtle being disturbed or from a later reduction in clutch size from predation, embryonic death or partial clutch harvest such as by some Aborigines in northern Australia. Differences in nest depth may occur at the time of laying or subsequently due to sand movement from strong winds or unstable dunes. Different clutch sizes and nest depths expose the nests to different environmental conditions during incubation.

Leatherbacks that commonly forage off central California, USA, from July to October have been suspected of belonging to eastern Pacific nesting populations. Past telemetry studies were limited to post-nesting movements of females from beaches in Mexico and Central America, and all of these turtles migrated southward into areas along the equator and in the southern hemisphere, rather than northward. This study combines genetic analyses with satellite telemetry to test the hypothesis that leatherbacks foraging off California may belong to western Pacific stocks. Further, the study provides a first look at the behavior and migration patterns of foraging adult leatherbacks away from nesting areas. We sampled and attached satellite transmitters to 13 adult leatherbacks, including three males, captured at sea in Monterey Bay, California during September 2000-2002. Following release, most turtles moved rapidly southwest along similar tracks. One turtle tagged in 2000 was tracked for 18 months as she crossed the Pacific to the Mariana Trench, north of a major nesting beach in northern Papua. Results of genetic analyses indicated that sampled animals were from western Pacific nesting stocks, most likely Papua or the Solomon Islands. The results have implications for conservation of Pacific leatherbacks and demonstrate the utility of combining two analysis techniques to determine population and stock boundaries of highly migratory sea turtle species.

One of the nesting areas, which is intensively monitored is located at the western tip of the Cuban main island: Guanahacabibes Peninsula. Since 1998, the Marine Research Center from Havana University has been heading and conducting, the 'University Project for Study and Conservation of Marine Turtles in Cuba' in the Peninsula de Guanahacabibes Biosphere Reserve and National Park. Three species of marine turtles nest on the beaches located along the south coast of Guanahacabibes (Chelonia mydas, Caretta caretta and Eretmochelys imbricate, in order of arrival nesting magnitude). The nesting season spans from May to September, during which volunteer teams (mostly Havana University students) conduct intensive night patrolling out of six turtle camps. A tagging program in four out of the seven monitored beaches commenced in 2002. Self-piercing inconel tags, type 1005-681, from National Band & Tags were used, and results indicated, among others, that individuals nested in alternating years. Nesting females were very much phylopatric, even when some migrations between beaches occurred. Re-nesting intervals varied from 6 to 22 nights, with mean of 12 nights. Nesting females nested four times on average per season with minimum of one and maximum of six times. Clutch size showed an increasing trend by the 5 super(th) nest. Results form the saturation tagging methods during 2002 suggest an effective population size at Caleta de los Piojos beach of some 72 nesting females.

Adult males and large untagged short-tailed turtles have been observed over several years in this area. Current research is based at the fishing-boat quay, which has proved to be an excellent study site. Sometimes loggerheads are as close as one metre away. Certain turtles were observed feeding on the small fish discarded by professional fishermen during net cleaning, which included Oblada melanura and Mullus surmeletus. This film includes the angle of approach adopted by a turtle when feeding at the surface, prey capture, and some interesting aspects of the ecological role played by turtles locally. Some very close interactions between turtles and humans were observed at this shallow-water urban site.

While informative, these studies did not address the factors that may influence the magnitude of these strandings. Using Classification and Regression Tree models, we demonstrate that the magnitudes of sea turtle cold-stunning events in Cape Cod Bay, Massachusetts are predicted by a variety of confounded factors with differing temporal and spatial scales. Summer and fall sea-surface temperature dynamics in the northwestern Atlantic, as well as turtle hatching success two years previous at Mexican nesting beaches greatly influenced the magnitude of cold-stunning events in Cape Cod Bay between 1984 and 2001. By the time cold front-induced storms begin to roll across the region in late October, the magnitude of the cold-stunning events in Cape Cod Bay during November and December has been predetermined by these landscape extent dynamics. Using our models, the magnitude of the coming season's cold-stunning event can be predicted, thereby facilitating recovery efforts for cold-stunned turtles.

During 1997/98 there was a major climatic transition in the Pacific from El Nino to La Nina conditions, associated with an increase in primary productivity of oceanic waters through which these leatherbacks migrate. We determined that the reproductive schedule of leatherbacks nesting at Las Baulas was accelerated after a lag of about one nesting season following the transition, with a significant reduction in the interval between nesting seasons after the transition compared with the interval before the transition. In addition, a large number of turtles returned that had not been seen for five or more years previously. We propose that this change in reproductive schedule can be attributed to more favourable environmental conditions improving the abundance, distribution or quality of leatherback prey so that they reached reproductive condition more quickly then in the El Nino conditions that dominated before the transition. Our modelling of population feasibility showed that El Nino conditions reduce the feasibility of the population by increasing the age at maturity and increasing the time between breeding seasons. A dominance of these conditions requires an increased rate of adult and juvenile survival in order for population stability or recovery. These results are important because we show that climatic changes can affect the outcome of conservation activities for sea turtles.

Suriname and French Guiana support one of the largest leatherback nesting colonies world-wide with 30,000-60,000 nests annually (Chevalier and Girondot 2000, STINASU unpublished data), and nest numbers in Suriname have shown a strong increase since the 1960's (Fig.1). Nesting beaches are only found in eastern Suriname (total beach length varies between 16-22 km), and the peak nesting season is from April to August. Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tagging in the Guianas was initiated in 1998 in French Guiana (Chevalier et al. 2000). In Suriname, a PIT tag program started in 1999 as a collaborative effort between Biotopic and STINASU. Objectives of the PIT tag program are population identification and thereby assessment of size and trends of this nesting population.

This area does not favour Caretta caretta nesting because it has no protected areas and the majority of the coast has been developed over the two last decades. However, this zone constitutes a very significant area for foraging and migration of Caretta caretta, and numerous strandings are reported. Observations of the area over the last decade and investigations carried out with fishermen during the last three years (2000-2002) indicated significant sea turtle interactions with fisheries, large turtles at sea, and stranding of several turtles at many localities such as Sebta, Marina-Smir, Martil and Mdiq. These resulted mostly from accidental captures of juveniles turtles. The observations of large turtles at sea and strandings on the northwestern coast of Morocco and the high content in fish, mollusks, and shellfish suggest this is a significant foraging ar and migration corridor for Caretta caretta. The migration of turtles between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean can be made only through Gibraltar Strait and the observations of large turtles in this Strait support this hypothesis. Strandings observed in this coastal zone might also be explained by oil pollution, plastics or accidents with boats. Consequently, sea turtle conservation in Morocco should be treated within a greater framework of marine biodiversity conservation.

A few of the individuals might not have been renested, but it is presumed the majority of the painted females emerged subsequently and were not recognized, presumably washed off in the seawater (Islam, 1998, Islam et al 1999, 1999a).

Today, they are found in warm and temperate seas throughout the world. There are only five species of marine turtles occurring on the Ghana coast. Out of theses only three species visit the coast regularly: Lepidochelys olivacea, Chelonia mydas and 'Dermochelys coriacea all of which are listed as endangered on the IUCN Red list. However, almost all the species are hunted for food and other traditional purposes in Ghana. In this paper we present the perceptions of local communities living in the Amanzuri area of the Nzema East and West districts of Ghana on the conservation of the species vis-a-vis the local needs.

Through a research project carried out until 2002 with CHELON's Marine Turtle Conservation and Research Program, attention was focused on the study of the interaction between the fishing methods most frequently used in these waters (bottom trawls and midwater pair trawls) and the loggerhead turtles. The analysis was performed on healthy live animals, on animals with any kind of problems preventing their release into the sea (hosted by the Fondazione Ceteacea di Riccione), and stranded animals, both dead and alive. Since 2000 the Ferrara section of Istituto Zooprofilalttico Sperimentale of Lombardia and Emilia Romagna has offered its support to the protection of marine turtles that frequent the waters of Lidi Ferraresi. In 2002 IZSLER proposed and obtained the approval from the Ministery of Health and "Politiche Agricole e Forestali", as a center for receiving and assisting turtles injured or in difficulty, and providing shelter in those cases where objective or logistical problems did not allow the sheltering in specialized centers or for uncomplicated cases requiring a subsequent short-term housing.

Unlike birds and mammals, reptiles depend on ambient temperature to regulate their body's core temperature. Reptiles have responded to this dependence on temperature with physiological and behavioral adaptations, which include hibernation and migration (McNabb 2002). These adaptations have allowed reptiles to survive in a variety of habitats and climates in which they would otherwise perish. Sea turtles are among those reptilian species that utilize these strategies in habitats with seasonal changes in temperature.

AN - 20475334; 9167401 AB - Southern Kyparissia Bay, western Greece, is a major nesting area for loggerhead turtles in the Mediterranean. On average, 425 clutches are deposited per season along 8 km of beach length (Margaritoulis and Rees, 2001). ARCHELON conducts a long-term monitoring and nest management programme in the area. Because of the prevailing winds during the nesting season, many nests are naturally inundated by seawater. This has prompted ARCHELON to include in its programme the routine relocation of clutches, laid within a certain distance from the sea, to sites higher up the beach. It is known that incubation duration is negatively correlated to nest temperature, which determines the sex ratio of hatchlings (Marcovaldi et al., 1997). To test the impact of inundation to sex ratios, the incubation duration of inundated versus non-inundated nests was studied for the 8-year period 1994-2001.

In this study, a total of 103 turtles were caught 206 times by SCUBA diving in the Maldives. All caught turtles were within 353 to 745mm SCL. The peak of the SCL frequency distribution was found to be in 500-600mm, which accounted for 53% of all captures, followed in decreasing order by the size classes 400-500mm (27%), 600-700mm (11%), and 300-400mm (6%). Since turtle captures in the 600-700mm class were less frequent than those in the 500-600mm class, it is thought that turtles move away to find new feeding grounds when they reach an SCL of approximately 600mm. Tagging of captured turtles yielded 92 growth rate data sets for 50 turtles. The rate of increase of SCL and body mass (BM) decreased with increasing turtle size. Turtles in the 600-700mm class were found to have much slower growth rates (2.2-3.7 mm/yr and 0.5-0.7 kg/yr, n = 7). Growth and population size of hawksbill turtles are thought to be affected by the standing crop and growth rate of sponges. The slow growth rate of the larger turtles indicates that the supply of sponges may be limited in this coral reef.

Of these, D. coriacea is the most common nesting species. Querepare (1182.72N, 5139.50W) is one of the important nesting beaches on the peninsula, so this beach was carefully surveyed starting in 2002 as part of a major nesting area census. Research activities were carried out between May 3rd and September 12th, and comprised daily nocturnal beach monitoring from 20:00 through 4:00 hours. A total of 20 nesting females leatherback turtles were tagged during this period with a recapture of a female tagged in Cipara (another nesting beach included in the same project). A total of 2253 eggs from 32 nests were relocated to hatcheries. The hatching success was 52%, while the emergence rate was 15%. Diurnal censuses were also done with a record of a hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) nest that later was poached by a member of the local community.

The project focusses on three main aspects: scientific research, conservation awareness and education. Every season since the first year, the beaches have been monitored in order to evaluate the sea turtle nesting activities. Nesting activity was low (range from 4 to 13 per year) and belonged to three species: Lepidochelys olivacea, Dermochelys coriacea and Chelonia mydas. In 2002, a satellite tracking device was applied on an olive ridley nesting turtle, the first in the Andaman Sea for this species. Thanks to the educational programme which consisted of lessons on different conservation topics in the local schools, the community was involved in the project. Being based in a small tourist resort, Golden Buddha Beach, awareness among tourists was always conducted. Volunteers from different part of the world participated in the project, contribution immensely and valuably to the fieldwork.

A thorough understanding of sea turtle distribution and abundance patterns are necessary foundations for their effective management and conservation. In particular, these spatial data may be particularly useful to guide fishery closures and marine protected areas designed to set aside important habitats (e.g., foraging areas, migration corridors) and to mitigate anthropogenic impacts (e.g., ship strikes, bycatch). As part of the Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS), the SEAMAP (Spatial Ecological Analysis of Megavertebrate Populations) initiative is compiling geo-referenced data on sea turtle at-sea surveys, movements, strandings, and population counts into a coherent and standardized format. To facilitate the research applications of this global database, SEAMAP is also developing a web-based system equipped with data analysis and visualization tools. This publicly-available database will allow users to display, query, subset, and summarize data on marine vertebrate distributions in conjunction with environmental information. This presentation will showcase the SEAMAP database within the context of a novel data model designed to depict species distributions and animal movements in a fluid oceanic system. This dynamic global database of marine vertebrate distribution and abundance will enhance the understanding of the biogeography and the ecology of sea turtles by: (1) facilitating the study of potential impacts on endangered and threatened species; (2) enhancing our ability to test hypothesis about biogeographic and biodiversity models, and (3) supporting modeling efforts to predict distributional changes in response to environmental change.

The monitoring area includes 18 km of shoreline, from the east of Punta Picua, Municipality of Rio Grande, up to Cape San Juan, Municipality of Fajardo. Detailed attention was paid to some 6 km of index beach area extending from the East of Sabana River, Municipality of Luquillo, up to the Governor's Beach Mansion, Municipality of Fajardo. More than 1,700 nesting attempts were identified and the nests managed through incubation. As a result, approximately 75,000 hatchlings were released to the wild. Over 200 females were identified and tagged during the nesting activities. Constant internesting migrations of females between Culebra and this beach area have been observed since 1996. Environmental education programs and research such as "Post Nesting Movements of Leatherback Turtles tracked from Culebra and Fajardo, PR", with popup archival and TDR Satellites Tags, have been integral parts of this program. As a result, there are more interactions with the coastal communities.

It is thus essential to understand the basic political and administrative characteristics of the states that are involved. The Republic of Ecuador has been an active player in the development of the only legally binding treaty focused on the conservation of marine turtles and their habitats: the Inter-American Convention for the Protection and Conservation of Sea Turtles (IAC). Given its internationally renown position in conservation, focused on the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador has the potential to play several critical roles in further development and implementation of this treaty. This paper provides a brief description of the political and administrative situation in Ecuador, the special case of Galapagos, the history of Ecuador's involvement in the IAC, and suggested future actions to support the Treaty.

This is because, although a relatively low mortality is observed during gear retrieval, a much higher post-release mortality is suspected. Unfortunately, only meagre data are available at present to give an estimate of this mortality rate.

Using data collected between 1972 and 2000 on nesting emergences of green turtles at Tortuguero, Costa Rica, we demonstrated that the mid-domain effect, which was developed to evaluate patterns of species richness, can also be applied to intraspecific patterns of reproductive investment within well-defined spatial and temporal biological boundaries. We predict that other sea turtle nesting beaches with well-defined boundaries and a large nesting population would support the mid-domain model in the absence of overriding biological and environmental factors.

Greens and hawksbills concentrated on different beaches. Levels of activity varied from densely nested (280 nests/km), to beaches with no evidence of nesting. To identify beaches important for conservation, an index of direct anthropogenic threats was developed from carapace numbers. Interviews conducted with residents to assess importance of turtle products in the local economy pointed to predominantly opportunistic exploitation. Along with exceptionally high nesting activity this suggests that implementation of conservation measures could have high positive impact on regional turtle populations.In southeast Madagascar, Azafady Project Fanomena is working with coastal residents to collect data on marine turtle nesting activity in southeast Madagascar. In the 2001-2002 nesting season (November - February), 23 nests were observed in an intermittently surveyed zone of 96 km. Eleven of those were identified to species (loggerhead). Due to low awareness and concern for the national law banning sea turtle exploitation, only six of these nests were protected. On one beach, all four nests were protected by a community agreement encouraged by Project Fanomena and WWF Madagascar. In the 2002-2003 nesting season, local assistants from coastal villages undertook daily beach surveys in the same zone, where 29 nests were discovered, 17 of which were protected. Combined with information from previous studies, the low number of nests appears to confirm local observations of a decline in nesting rates. At community meetings, an awareness-raising booklet was used to present the national law banning marine turtle harvest and the reasons for the vulnerability of marine turtles to over-exploitation. An educational game/drama session about the sea turtle lifecycle was also used with village children. The project built capacity for revenue-generating aspects of sea turtle conservation by employing villagers and undertaking an ecotourism feasibility study. The project also supports community development initiatives to build trust and help people to meet basic needs. In several coastal villages, these activities led to reaffirmation or development of community agreements to apply the national law against turtle harvest.

As local stocks are depleted, fisheries expand to exploit more distant populations, which increases pressure on other stocks. Breeding populations of green turtles have declined throughout much of their range indicating that past levels of exploitation are unsustainable. We studied the impact of two large turtle fisheries (Bali and the Torres Strait) on different breeding stocks in the Australasian region, using mtDNA markers that define 17 genetic stocks throughout this region. The Bali fishery operates within a wide geographic range and four major stocks (Sulu Sea, Aru, PNG and Gulf of Carpentaria,) contribute to this catch. The Torres Strait fishery has a local focus and influences the NGBR stock, almost to the exclusion of all other stocks.

Such exploitation is illegal under national law but the law is not enforced. In the southeast, both WWF and Azafady run projects raising awareness about the need for conservation, but in the absence of enforcement and because of concerns about possible negative impacts of a turtle harvest ban on local livelihoods, Azafady Project Fanomena has combined awareness-raising with employment of local assistants as an externally-funded incentive for turtle conservation, and are piloting ecotourism as a sustainable alternative to the harvest. Both WWF Madagascar and Azafady Project Fanomena support community development projects to build capacity for sustainable resource management. As a result of these projects, some villages have made dina (traditional written contracts) to protect sea turtles. However, adherence to conservation agreements varies from village to village. Individual decisions on whether to harvest or respect local agreements depend on the balance of incentives to harvest and conserve. Incentives to harvest include financial returns, meeting nutritional requirements or preference for turtle products. Incentives to conserve are related to the probability and consequences of detection when an agreement is broken, financial and other benefits from maintaining the turtle population and expectations of future benefits. A livelihood questionnaire, interviews with coastal residents, and surveys of harvest and trade are being used to investigate the balance of these incentives in different villages in southeast Madagascar with the aim of developing recommendations for a local sea turtle conservation strategy.

This is the only rookery in Bangladesh where hawksbill turtle nesting has been recorded, although it is extremely rare. In 2000, the Under Ministry of Environment & Forests, NCS (National Conservation Strategy) started sea turtle project and since then one of the major activities of the ongoing St. Martin's project is to protect the sea turtle population (Islam, 2001). Several decades ago the nesting population was high but this has declined due to severe exploitation of eggs and illegal killing of adult females by fishing and other activities.

Limited harvest is allowed only for cultural purposes by permit. Since the turtle fishermen are unable to supplement their incomes with the sale of turtle meat, what other product will they harvest, or will turtles be harvested illegally? How much did they make harvesting turtles? To answer these questions fisherman are being interviewed and the results were presented in a poster presented at the 23 super(rd) Sea Turtle Symposium.

The extensive legal and illegal exploitation over last 40 years have had critical consequences on the populations of these species on these beaches and their populations have diminished dramatically (Cliffton et al, 1995; Marquez, op cit; Mack, 1983). The Mexican Government in 1986 decreed a protected zone for nesting and breeding; and in 1990 approved laws for total protection of all sea turtles in Mexican littoral zones. But excessive predation continues on these beaches, many eggs are plundered, many turtles are killed to obtain skins and meat. All species are captured on the beaches but more frequently with nets at sea, when congregating to breed.

Cadmium and mercury exhibited a higher range of variation in the tissues than copper, zinc and selenium, likely due to some control by the turtle through an homeostatic mechanism. No differences were detected between male and female. The trace element concentrations in the liver were not influenced by size except selenium, which was negatively correlated with curved carapace length. Compared to marine mammals and seabirds, loggerhead turtles showed similar levels of cadmium but much lower levels of mercury (10.9-158.4 mg/kg dry weight and 0.14-8.76 mg/kg dw, respectively). The inter-specific variability was consistent with differences in biology and feeding ecology of these species. Copper, zinc and selenium exhibited the highest concentrations in the liver, muscle and kidney, respectively (17.6 mg/kg dw, 101.9 mg/kg dw, 15 mg/kg dw). Comparison with data reported in the literature showed small intra-specific variation in trace element accumulation that could be linked with the differences in the grade of local pollution or with the individual variability in trace element accumulation. Only for cadmium did a few individuals exhibit concentrations high enough to be cause for concern. However, a correlation between zinc and cadmium found in both liver and kidney could be linked to a protection mechanism based on metallothionein production. Mercury concentrations were always too low to be considered a threat for loggerhead turtle's survival.

With this goal, a short course for Park rangers of the National Parks Service (DGSPN-INPARQUES) was held at Laguna de Tacarigua National Park in 1991. Since 1992, the course has been more a formal "Sea Turtle Biology and Conservation Course" and we have continued running the course each year to date, along with additional courses, seminars and workshop conducted by ourselves or in cooperation with other organizations in Venezuela and Latin America. This presentation focuses on the "Sea Turtle Biology and Conservation" courses and a workshop organized to provide insights on some of the course topics.

Here we compile and analyze data on satellite imagery of the isles, carapace lengths of nesting turtles, nesting census and success, clutch size, hatching success, and estimates of population size. Based on those limited data, we discuss further research required to estimate viability of the population, and to draw-up an appropriate recovery action plan. We also discuss the potential of turtle-based ecotourism as a tool for community based turtle conservation in this area.

Although the nesting population at Tortuguero has not shown evidence of a decline in recent years, an assessment of the population as a whole is needed because impacts of harvest may not be evident on the nesting beach for some time after a decline has begun. In this study, we use matrix population models to heuristically evaluate the status of the Tortuguero green turtle population and potential for future changes on the nesting beach. Because there is uncertainty in all demographic parameters, as well as the proportion of the Tortuguero population that is subject to the fishery, we constructed distributions of models through a Monte-Carlo resampling process and simulated several scenarios of population status.

Temporal and spatial stranding patterns, when combined with water current information can help pinpoint locations of fisheries interactions or other potential threats to both individuals and populations. Thorough documentation of threats and associated mortality is necessary in order to effect positive changes in the shortest possible time to reduce or eliminate the mortality and provide lasting benefits to the overall population. Species composition and size class distribution information helps provide information on whether threats are specific to certain species or sizes of turtles. For example, stranding size distribution information was recently utilized to document that many turtles stranding in the United States were larger than the currently required TED opening sizes (Epperly and Teas, 2002). New regulations that increase the size of required TED openings in U.S. waters are being implemented as a result of this analysis. Necropsy of stranded turtles provides important information on sex composition and state of health of turtles utilizing nearshore locations. Specimen collection from stranded individuals provides valuable materials for researchers working on genetics, aging, gut content analysis, etc. and can help to establish areas of critical habitat which can be protected to benefit turtle species. Rehabilitation of live stranded individuals provides a valuable resource for educating the public on threats turtles face and how specific actions of individuals can help preserve and protect sea turtles for future generations.

The careful techniques of relocation, including the reburying of eggs within two hours of collection, decreases the number of hatchlings emerging from their nests by about 20% (Bustard, 1976). However, results of Wyneken, et al. (1988) have shown that if the eggs are not traumatized, are moved early, and placed in a "safe" area, then relocating nests may be an affective conservation method.

However, Cuba's approach to management of marine turtle resources has differed from that of its neighbours. Since the early 1960s, the turtle fishery has been part of a managed fisheries program regulated by the Ministry of Fishing Industries (Carrillo et al. 1998a, b). The historical harvest (1968-90), undertaken throughout Cuban waters, deliberately reduced the wild population to extract a sustainable harvest; in the case of hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) this equated to a harvest of about 5000 individuals per year (ROC 1998, 2000). The fishery was phased down between 1990 and 1995, largely for economic reasons, and harvesting of turtles was restricted to two traditional fishing sites (Isle of Youth and Nuevitas), with a maximum annual quota of 500 E. imbricata per year.

Hatching sea turtles are particularly vulnerable to attack by ants because hatchlings typically take from several hours to several days after pipping before they emerge from their nests. During this time, ants may invade the nests & attack trapped hatchlings (Fowler 1979; Krahe et al., 2003). Ants also sting hatchlings as they exit the nest (Krahe et al., 2003). Hatchlings may die as a direct result of the ant stings, or as an indirect result, due to impairment caused by stings, particularly stings to their eyes (Krahe et al., 2003).
