Beschrijving

The project aims at developing a joint cross-border strategy for maintenance of biodiversity and conservation of the population of Caretta caretta, a sea turtle species seriously threatened by the impact of human activities. 

Main foreseen actions: 
Development of a Management Model for marine areas
Management Plans for the Marine areas involved, through elaboration of bathymetric and habitat maps, identifying stress factors 
Implementation of a GIS to share information resulting from maps setting a Tank of First Recovery for the protection of C. caretta
A Database collecting information on survey coasts report, areas of potential nesting; biometric data, web GIS movements of the 20 specimens paths through ARGOS satellite system 
An Action Plan for the protection of the population of sea turtles 
A cross-border Association providing exchange of expertise and the identification of joint objectives for conservation.
