A model for simulating the active dispersal of juvenile sea turtles with a case study on western Pacific leatherback turtles.
Oceanic currents are known to broadly shape the dispersal of juvenile sea turtles during their pelagic stage. Accordingly, simple passive drift models are widely used to investigate the distribution at sea of various juvenile sea turtle populations. However, evidence is growing that juveniles do not...
