Loggerhead Sea Turtle Diving Changes with Productivity, Behavioral Mode, and Sea Surface Temperature

Scientists used two different Wildlife Computers SPLASH tags to gather baseline information on diving in relation to temperature and productivity in Loggerhead sea turtles. Turtles were tagged in the Gulf of Mexico where little data is available. Scientists looked at five frequency, frequency of dives to the bottom, frequency of long dives and time-at-depth.
