The Biology of Sea Turtles, Volume II

Description

The success of the first volume revealed a need for broad but comprehensive review of major recent advances in sea turtle biology. Biology of Sea Turtles, Volume II expands on the effort, emphasizing aspects of biology that relate to sea turtle management and to changes in marine and coastal ecosystems. These topics include the interactions of humans and sea turtles, including in prehistoric times, an introduction to sea turtle anatomy, sensory and reproductive biology, sea turtle habitat use and ecology, stress and health, and the maintenance of captured animals. This volume provides more than 1,500 references valuable for continuing research. According to N. Mrosovsky, writing in Nature (Vol. 423, 15 May 2003), “When the first volume of The Biology of Sea Turtles appeared in 1997, it enjoyed considerable success and was frequently cited....The Biology of Sea Turtles is one of the best places to start... both volumes may be recommended to libraries and individuals.” Writing in Copeia (2004), Kentwood D. Wells says, Like its predecessor, it is likely to become the standard reference in the field. …this volume and its companion are likely to be a first source for many herpetologists looking for current information on sea turtles.” And according to the Marine Turtle Newsletter (No. 102, 2003), this volume is “a key reference text for those involved closely with sea turtle research and an essential purchase for institutional libraries that service those involved with marine biology….”
