In addition to the effects of marine pollution, specifically the presence of marine debris consisting mainly of plastic debris that turtles mistake for food, other dangers such as fishing or maritime traffic also pose health risks to these species.<\/p>\n<p>The conservation of the loggerhead sea turtle and other marine species in Mediterranean waters depends on <strong>understanding and proper management of marine ecosystems<\/strong>. In 2015, in keeping with this objective, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.upv.es\/contenidos\/CGANDIA\/index-en.html\">Campus Gandia of the Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia<\/a> was added to the existing lines of research on Mediterranean sea turtles carried out by the Marine Zoology Unit of the Cavanilles Institute of the Universitat de Val\u00e8ncia. The Campus is providing innovation with the application of new technologies to increase the understanding of these species and the threats that affect them. These lines of research are part of <a href=\"https:\/\/cienciagandia.webs.upv.es\/en\/?s=tortuga\">various scientific projects<\/a> in which other scientific institutions, conservation associations, NGOs, and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.agroambient.gva.es\/es\">Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development, Climate Emergency and Ecological Transition of the Generalitat Valenciana<\/a> also participate.<\/p>\n<p>In the research carried out at Campus Gandia under the leadership of <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.upv.es\/pls\/oalu\/sic_person.Info?p_alias=edbelpe&amp;P_IDIOMA=i\">Eduardo Belda<\/a><\/strong>, the turtles are being tagged and monitored via satellite in order to establish strategies for their protection. By <strong>tagging the turtles with satellite transmitters<\/strong>, it is possible to monitor the long journeys and migrations carried out by these specimens, enabling the study of their behavior and habitat use, as well as understanding the survival of captive-bred and rehabilitated specimens. This was the case with the <a href=\"https:\/\/cienciagandia.webs.upv.es\/en\/2015\/03\/travel-with-la-tortuga-lola\/\">la tortuga Lola<\/a> (Lola the turtle), the first rehabilitated juvenile loggerhead turtle that was monitored after being tagged and released.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12964 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cienciagandia.webs.upv.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gandia-upv-ejemplar-tortuga-boba-marcada.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"376\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cienciagandia.webs.upv.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gandia-upv-ejemplar-tortuga-boba-marcada.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cienciagandia.webs.upv.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gandia-upv-ejemplar-tortuga-boba-marcada-426x250.jpg 426w, https:\/\/cienciagandia.webs.upv.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/gandia-upv-ejemplar-tortuga-boba-marcada-150x88.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>MOVEMENTS AND REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS<\/p>\n<p>Currently, within the framework of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/intemares.es\/en\/node\/499\">European LIFE INTEMARES project<\/a><\/strong>, the Campus Gandia collaborates in the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.seaturtle.org\/tracking\/?project_id=1286\">monitoring of young turtles born on our coasts<\/a><\/strong> and in the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/intemares.es\/en\/node\/665\">monitoring of nesting females<\/a><\/strong>.

However, since the early 2000s,<strong> loggerhead turtle spawning sites have begin to be detected off the western Mediterranean shores<\/strong>. Although the causes are unknown, this phenomenon is associated with the increase in sea surface temperatures in spring and summer, and in terrestrial temperatures, offering better thermal conditions for nesting.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the nesting events have been recorded on tourist beaches, a fact that <strong>poses a risk to hatchlings and eggs<\/strong>, requiring more planning for these events and the relocation of the eggs to safe incubation sites.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, it is just as important to understand the oceanic dispersal and <strong>survival rates<\/strong> of loggerhead hatchlings in their \u201clost years\u201d, that is, the period of time that elapses between their birth and entry into the sea, and their return to coastal waters as large juveniles.
