Mixed‐stock aging analysis reveals variable sea turtle maturity rates in a recovering population

2022-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Quantifying demographic parameters and variable vital rates, such as somatic growth rates, time to maturity, and reproductive longevity, is important for effective management of threatened and endangered populations such as sea turtles (Cheloniidae). To address these knowledge gaps, we applied skeletochronology to analyze and compare somatic growth rates and variation in life‐history traits such as age and size at...
