Book Synopsis Turtle Tide by : Stephen R. Swinburne
Download or read book Turtle Tide written by Stephen R. Swinburne and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They swam the ocean when dinosaurs walked the earth. More than 100 million years later, they are swimming still. Today, however, they are fighting for their survival. These ancient and beautiful creatures are sea turtles. Here is the story of one sea turtle, a mother turtle that swims to shore. She digs a hole in a dune where she lays one hundred eggs. Following her instinct, she covers the eggs with sand and slowly makes her way back to sea. What happens next, from eggs to hatchlings, is one of the most extraordinary occurences in nature. For the eggs provide food for other animals. The eggs that survive produce hatchlings that, again, provide food for birds and crabs. For the hatchlings that survive, the journey from the nest to the water is filled with danger. And even those that make it to the ocean face an uncertain future. Steven Swinburne's text, with dramatic illustrations by Bruce Hiscock, is a blend of lyrical prose and fascinating facts. Together, words and paintings give young readers an understanding of how turtles give birth and how the young fight for survival.

Book Synopsis New Perspectives on the Pelagic Stage of Sea Turtle Development by : Archie Carr
Download or read book New Perspectives on the Pelagic Stage of Sea Turtle Development written by Archie Carr and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Thirty years ago when interest in sea turtles was beginning to spread, the ,habitat of the post-hatchlings for all the species was unknown. After they left the nest and made their way through the surf, they simply disappeared. Very slowly, data to suggest a pelagic life in a sargassum weed habitat accumulated, and eventually I received support to investigate that idea intensively. By the end of that research period it was clear that when sargassum rafts are present in longshore arrays within the swimming range of the hatchlings, they do in fact enter them (Carr 1982). It followed that the early developmental stages are pelagic, with the corollary that, because sargassum accumulates along convergences, the adjacent currents may carry the rafts and their occupants on journeys of either local or oceanic extent or both"--Introduction.
