As a mentor I strive to: Create an interactive environment for learning.

This information can also help elucidate ecological processes and provide insights into potential threats. Extensive research has been conducted on the spatial ecology of marine turtles, however, most of our knowledge is focused on adult nesting females since they are easy to access when they come to nest ashore. In contrast to this, stages that do not come ashore (e.g., post-hatchlings, juveniles, male turtles) have received relatively less attention as they are logistically difficult to study. In particular, information on mature males is scarce as we have limited knowledge of their distribution, they are harder to encounter during in-water studies and challenging to catch. This project will conduct a meta-analysis to identify current knowledge and knowledge gaps related to male sea turtle spatial ecology and collect data from published work to analyse existing information.' please_add_any_additional_information_here: '' please_provide_a_link_to_your_publications_a_video_clip_or_a_web: 'https://marineturtleresearch.com/' please_select_the_choice_that_most_accurately_describes_your_exp: 'Partially Remote' please_select_the_location_of_your_project_: 'On FSU Main Campus' position_availability_for_student_research: 'Flexible schedule' position_title: Faculty primary_research_mentor_name: 'Mariana Fuentes ' project_keywords: 'movement ecology, spatial ecology, sea turtles, marine biology, conservation' relevant_student_major_s_: 'Environmental Science, Biology, Computer Science, GIS' research_mentor_preferred_pronoun2: '' research_mentor_pronouns: She/hers research_mentor_supervisor_if_different_from_above_: '' research_tasks_for_student_research_assistant_s_: |- Literature review Data synthesis Data visualization Attend lab meetings Present results roundtable_times_and_zoom_links: '' skills_that_research_assistants_may_need_: |- Attention to detail (required) Willingness to learn (required) Microsoft Excel (required) Statistical Analysis (desired) GIS (desired) title_of_the_project: 'Spatial Ecology of Male Sea Turtles' update_url: 'https://cre.fsu.edu/urop-research-mentor-project-submission-portal?token=tXbgsQcIV-3HY_H2onI08nZf-BsMhM7hVbAETmQdMzc' urop_performance_evaluation: '1' urop_poster_presentation: '1' when_potential_research_assistants_are_reaching_out_via_email_2: '' when_potential_research_assistants_are_reaching_out_via_email_wh: '' when_students_are_reaching_out_via_email_what_is_your_preferreda: mfuentes@fsu.edu would_you_like_to_participate_in_the_urop_research_mentor_roundt: '' year: '2023'
