Swim, baby, swim: the active dispersal scenario of juvenile North Pacific loggerhead turtles revealed by historical satellite tracking data and novel operational oceanography produ... by Philippe Gaspar, Julien Temple-Boyer, Dana K. Briscoe, Masanori Kurita, Denise M. Parker, Jeffrey J. Polovina, Marc R. Rice, Tomomi Saito, George H. Balazs

“…The oceanic circulation is known to play a major role, but the impact of the swimming activity is poorly understood, largely because juvenile tracking experiments rarely cover a significant fraction of the lost years’ period. In addition, errors in commonly used ocean current estimates make it difficult to properly separate, in tracking data, the effect of the swimming activity from that of the drift velocity. …”
