The main purposes of this synopsis are to bring together the current and salient information on the biology of the green turtle and to draw attention to some of the major gaps in our knowledge of the species. Because of the nature of a synopsis, that of providing an entry into the literature, researchers should persue the original papers for details of methodologies and conclusions.

Sea turtles have existed for millions of years, making them fascinating subjects of study. In the last 20 years, the science of sea turtle biology has expanded at an exponential rate, leading to major advances in many areas. This book synthesizes the results of these advances and focuses on how these endangered marine reptiles operate in, adapt to, and are dependent upon particular features of their marine environment. New technology in data gathering, such as DNA analyses, remote sensing, and physiological monitoring techniques, has led to a much greater understanding of the biology of the sea turtle at all stages of their life history.
