Satellite-tracked Sea Turtle migratory patterns
  • Seaturtle.org uses CCAR near-real time mesoscale geostrophic velocity anomaly fields
  • Study aid on migratory routes of hawksbill turtles in relation to surface eddy fields in near real-time
  • Plan is to incorporate the data into graphical interfaces hosted on their web site
  • Shown is a migration route from Barbados to Dominica overlaid on coincident geostrophic velocity streamline vectors.
