The project is funded by Old Dominion University and the Commonwealth of Virginia.<br><br>-----------------------------<br><br>Ce projet vise à développer une compréhension plus détaillée de la densité relative de l'utilisation de l'habitat marin et, cette année, du comportement de plongée et les préférences océanographiques de la tortue olivâtre (Lepidochelys olivacea). Cela va permettre des efforts de planification spatiale plus efficaces à l'appui de la conception des aires marines protégées, de la gestion des pêches et des activités de l’industrie pétrolière. Le projet est financé par Old Dominion University et le Commonwealth of Virginia, USA. This dataset is a summarized representation of the telemetry locations aggregated per species per 1-degree cell.
