Description:The AMAPPS Turtle Ecology program is midway through a 5-year program designed to collect and analyze leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) behavioral data. To address immediate needs of U.S. federal agencies for data on leatherback surfacing information, we are providing simple summary statistics from our partially completed project. Because of the imminent need for data in the midst of an ongoing project, we followed the procedural and methodological precedent set in NEFSC (2011). The AMAPPS III Turtle Ecology study plan includes more data collection and more sophisticated data analysis, so this current document is offered as a preliminary product to take advantage of existing data while we continue to pursue the longer term AMAPPS III data collection and analysis goals.
