Artisanal Green Turtle, <i>Chelonia mydas</i>, Fishery of Caribbean Nicaragua: I. Catch Rates and Trends, 1991–2011 by Cynthia J. Lagueux (553022)

“…Explanations for the apparent discrepancy between the increasing trend at Tortuguero and decreasing catch rate trends in Nicaragua include: i) an increase in reproductive output, ii) insufficient time has passed to observe the impact of the fishery on the rookery due to a time lag, iii) changes in other segments of the population have not been detected since only nesting activity is monitored, iv) the expansive northern Nicaragua foraging ground may provide a refuge for a sufficient portion of the Tortuguero rookery, and/or v) a larger than expected contribution of non-Tortuguero rookeries occurring in Nicaragua turtle fishing areas. …”

“…In males, a 10 ng/ml decrease in 25-(OH)D was associated with a -0.95 (-1.46, -0.45) nmol/L change in T levels and a 26% higher risk of hypogonadism (defined as total testosterone <12 nmol/L), though these associations disappeared after adjusting for age and BMI. …”

Wetland Suitability and Connectivity for Trans-Saharan Migratory Waterbirds by Ronny Merken (781817)

“…<div><p>To complete their life cycle waterbirds rely on patchily distributed and often ephemeral wetlands along their migration route in a vast unsuitable matrix. However, further loss and degradation of remaining wetland habitats might lead to a configuration and size of stopovers that is no longer sufficient to ensure long-term survival of waterbird populations. …”
