Spatial mapping of vulnerability hotspots: Information for mitigating vessel-strike risks to sea turtles
Mortality risk to imperiled animal populations from anthropogenic hazards can be managed by spatial limits on human behavior if exposure and vulnerability of the animals are known. To provide this information for sea turtles in waters near their nesting beaches, we mapped exposure to vessel strikes,...
