Colombia's satellite track

Background

Colombia es una tortuga golfina que habita las productivas aguas del noroeste mexicano y que fue marcada el 20 de julio de 2011, dÃa del grito de independencia de este paÃs suramericano. El sitio de captura fue Puerto A. LÃ³pez Mateos en BahÃa Magdalena, uno de los lugares donde se han reportado las mayores tasas de captura incidental de tortugas marinas en el mundo. Por tal motivo, desde 2003 ProCaguama del Grupo Tortuguero (GTC) ha venido realizando acciones e investigaciÃ³n para la conservaciÃ³n de estos animales.

Colombia fue capturada por Vladiimir de la Toba y fue marcada y nombrada por MC Juan Manuel RodrÃguez BarÃ³n, Coordinador de Ciencia de ProCaguama, y un orgulloso nativo de Colombia. Colombia pesÃ³ 43 kg y midiÃ³ 68 cm pertenece a la colonia anidadora del sur de la PenÃnsula de Baja California, la cual es el lÃmite norte de la poblaciÃ³n del PacÃfico Nororiental. Por su tamaÃ±o y morfologÃa se cree que es una hembra a la que le falta poco tiempo para empezar a reproducirse y aportar su granito de arena a la necesaria recuperaciÃ³n poblacional de esta especie.

This map connects positions generated by the ARGOS system designated as location class (lc) '4', '3', '2', '1'. Locations that have been "filtered" are displayed as small red dots.
This maps also shows locations of class '0', 'B', 'Z', 'X' as small black dots which are not connected by a route line.
Bathymetry layers are derived from the GEBCO One Minute Grid.
Sea surface temperature and chlorophyll are derived from NASA's Ocean Color data.
Ocean currents and sea surface heights are derived from AVISO's Ssalto/Duacs Gridded Absolute Dynamic Topography & absolute geostrophic velocities data.
