Description

Accurate sea turtle population modeling assessments are reliant on robust data on both nesting levels and threat impacts, especially fisheries bycatch. North pacific loggerheads nest exclusively in japan and data from the index nesting beach complex of yakushima nagata-hama represents the primary nesting input needed for population modeling. The organization historically responsible for coordinating the collection and sharing of nesting data from yakushima nagata-hama has undergone several organizational challenges in recent years, culminating with the group's dissolution in 2022. As a result, loggerhead nesting data has not been made available to national and international stakeholders since 2016. In addition, bycatch assessments carried out between 2007 and 2011 identified high levels of loggerhead mortality at multiple sites in japan that have coastal pound net fisheries. Funding
