    • Satellite tracking data for post-nesting green turtles from Northwest Florida (2002-2020)

    Metadata Updated: November 13, 2025

    This dataset includes processed satellite tracking data collected from green turtles between July 2002 and October 2020 in the Gulf of Mexico.

(2023) is included, as are inter-nesting and foraging centroids calculated using kernel density estimates and minimum convex polygons.
