"It turns out that juvenile turtles measuring between 7 and 10 cm long dive daily to depths greater than 20m!” - @TurtlePhysicist , lead author of our most recent publication in Animals - read our full interview with him:

📢I am excited to share our new manuscript published in @Animals_MDPI and addressing challenges brought by miniaturization of satellite tags to unveil the #seaturtles#LostYears!
This research is part of the Lost Year’s Initiative of @UpwellTurtles 🐢

@helpdesku03@CMEMS_EU@MercatorOcean Actually, yes I do. Ocean variables that I use, such as ocean currents, sea temperatures or net primary production (among others), come from ocean reanalyses.
Honored to have chaired a session at the #CopernicusMarine Ocean Reanalysis Workshop by @CMEMS_EU and @MercatorOcean where I shared my work on juvenile #seaturtles.
Collaboration across fields is key for nature #conservation, gathering physicists, modelers, biologists, and more.
📢New paper from my @UpwellTurtles fellow, Dr. Nicole Barbour!
With @MercatorOcean🌊, we provided oceanographic data assisting the creation of a #conservation tool to prevent bycatch events, based on multidimensional movements of #leatherbacks🐢!

📢Last week, I had the privilege to present at @CNES to share my research on #seaturtle using satellite-tracking tech🛰️ and oceanic data. It was an amazing experience to engage with primary school students, inspiring them to protect sea turtles🐢 and their habitats.

Happy #WorldTurtleDay! 🎉
Last year, with @MercatorOcean, we made a short clip 🎬 popularising my work as an Oceanographer and Marine Ecosystem Modeler to help @UpwellTurtles in their ultimate goal:
To save sea turtles at sea ! 🐢
Happy #WorldTurtleDay!
Tony - Oceanographer & Marine Ecosystems Modeler - is one of our #seaturtle experts. In this clip, he tells us about sea turtles and their “lost years”
What happens when sea turtles and operational oceanography meet?

About a month ago, my colleague from @UpwellTurtles 🐢, Dr. Nicole Barbour, published a great paper analyzing tracking data from juvenile #greenturtles released off Cayman Islands. I was very glad to assist this work providing oceanic data from @MercatorOcean 🌊 and analysis.

Such an exciting journey from Ember! 🤩
I was so glad to follow and inform its progress within the North Atlantic during more than 4 months with @UpwellTurtles 🐢 and thanks to the technology from @LotekWireless 🛰 and data from @MercatorOcean 🌊.
#satellitetag#loggerhead
After 136 days and approximately 1,730 miles, Ember the #loggerhead#seaturtle's prototype microsatellite tag stopped transmitting on March 13th— far outlasting its 80-day expected duration! Read more about the data from the tag and how it will be used: https://t.co/frlip0JkA5
Back to the poster I presented at #ISTS_Cartagena 🇨🇴 a few weeks ago with @UpwellTurtles.
It summarizes my work analyzing the performance of new satellite-tracking technologies 🛰, specifically designed for very small (~100g) sea turtles! 🐢

If you want to be in the know about the latest #seaturtle tech, check out researcher Tony Candela's performance analysis of prototype microsatellite tags!
So glad to have participated in this amazing #ISTS41_Cartagena in Colombia🇨🇴. It was a great opportunity to finally meet in person the sea turtle community and some of my fellows from @UpwellTurtles🐢. Looking forward to seeing you again next year! 👋
