A project of ARCHELON.

Sadly, Elaia was found dead in a trammel net by a Tunisian fisherman. This highlights the threat that fisheries are to turtles internationally and that bycatch reduction and fisher education are vital components of sea turtle conservation.

Background

Last but not least we have Elaia; the final turtle to be tracked by ARCHELON in 2018. Elaia is a coastal village at the core nesting area of Kyparissia Bay. Elaia was also a goddess half-angel half-demon in Greek mythology, often accompanied by nymphs and elves (xotika).

This map connects positions generated by the ARGOS system designated as location class (lc) '3', '2', '1'. Locations that have been "filtered" are displayed as small red dots.
This maps also shows locations of class 'A' 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.
